Game Preview: Sacramento Kings 3/5/13

The day after a win at home, the Denver Nuggets (39-22) travel to Sacramento to take on the Kings (21-40). The Nuggets have seven straight wins against the Kings, and have won the first two meetings this year by 25 and 28. Here are today's keys to the game.

#1. Get Loose: Playing an away game as the second of a back to back is tough. The Nuggets need to get their legs quickly and come out strong against a team that, over the last couple of games, have been very hot offensively.

#2. Dominate the boards: The Nuggets have out rebounded the Kings 103-82 in their two wins this season. They need to keep this trend going.

#3. Find Danilo's Lost Confidence: Either Danilo has not been playing at 100%, or he has lost confidence in his driving game. If the latter is true, this game would be great to get him going again, as the Kings aren't known for their defense.

Key Match up: Ty VS Isaiah:
Not often will you see Ty play against someone who is shorter than him, as he will today. Isaiah Thomas is at 5-9 while Lawson is at 5-11. Should be fun to watch the little men go at each other, gives us normal people of normal height hope...

These are the kinds of games the Nuggets need to win to gain their fans' trust, let's see if they can get it done tonight.
