Denver has nothing to worry about with Jerry Sloan as the Utah Jazz coach because he never calls a timeout when they need it and I believe Denver will win the series even though Utah is 3-1 right now.
Good luck Nuggets!

I’m also with the Nuggets to win this round before the series started, but Deron Williams has been a key factor for the Jazz. Denver Nuggets have to play tough in 3 straight games to win this first round.
