Nuggets One Win Away from 2nd Round after Stomping Hapless Hornets

If you saw this game, you witnessed the largest road game margin of defeat in NBA Playoff History. Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you the 2009 Denver Nuggets Playoff Team... you thought you already knew them since they are one of only 4 teams that has been to the playoffs each of the last six season... but think again.

This Nuggets team plays defense, and plays a smart but very physical brand of basketball. This team does not panic. This team does not rely on Carmelo Anthony to have a huge offensive game to have a chance of winning.
