"What you might have missed

Al Harrington had to leave the game in the first half after dislocating his right thumb. He did not return and had X-rays, which came back negative. He's listed as day to day. . . . J.R. Smith got the coveted final pregame introduction spot. . . . Chris Andersen's 11 rebounds were a season

high.

Final thought

There are red-flag warnings throughout this team. It will be interesting to see how quickly the Nuggets can fix them."
