Looming large in this matchup is the newest Nugget, Chauncey Billups. Billups, a former University of Colorado star and Denver native, replaces Allen Iverson and poses a threat to the Grizzlies as a potent offensive weapon. The Nuggets are led in scoring by Carmelo Anthony's 23 ppg average. Other key scorers include Nene and Kenyon Martin. Denver features a pretty big lineup and has some bulk inside, meaning Darko Milicic and Marc Gasol must contribute as much as possible in the post.
