I haven't checked the actual numbers on this, but it seems like the Heat, Lakers, Nuggets and Celtics, (i.e. the teams that had the least rest before the start of this season) sure have been hit hard by injuries/time lost to rest, etc. Feels like week 14 of the NFL season now, where everybody is some degree of hurt, and people are just slogging through 3 in 4 nights and 8 in 10 nights. All so the NBA can stay out of the way of an Olympics that may or may not happen this summer, at which no NBA star really wants to play.

I was watching the game last night. Planted it and at a weird angle. I don't think it changed the course of the game last night given when it happened. But it does suck for Denver.
On a side note... Steph Curry rocked it last night! He just keeps getting more fun to watch.
