Down 3-1 to the Jazz in the first round, no doubt the Nuggets have missed Coach Karl’s leadership during this series. I had a chance to sit down and talk with George last season about his career, his relationships with his players and the biggest keys for his team to be successful in the playoffs. The Denver Nuggets need a win at home tonight in order to extend the series. Tune in for live coverage at 10:30 PM ET on TNT.

The Nuggets will win game 5 through strong play from Nene, Afflalo, & JR Smith. But without Karl, they don’t have the focus/composure to win game 6 back in Utah.
