Tonight, the Nuggets face off against the team possibly most reviled by fans: the Golden State Warriors. Andrew did a fine job covering the reasons in his preview. However, as Christopher Dempsey tweeted, it looks like Steve Kerr has decided to rest many of the players most contentious for Nuggets fans:
The #Nuggets will NOT face Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, Andre Iguodala & Andrew Bogut tonight. They are all being rested.

Given the Nuggets improved play under interim coach Melvin Hunt, and the Warriors resting 3/5ths of their starting line up, a key bench player, and having their back up center out due to suspension, it would not be a surprise to see the Nuggets pull off a rare exacta – beating the East leading Hawks and the West leading Warriors in back to back games.
