Afternoon Drive

The Nuggets finally got a win in the clutch last night, beating the Utah Jazz 128-125. Jamal Murray went off for 45 points, including 8 made 3-pointers. Is it hard to give the Nuggets credit for the win, considering they were playing one of the worst teams in the league? The Avalanche won in LA last night, downing the Kings 4-2. Also, could the Avs be looking to make a move, such as finding a solid 3rd line center? Would Naz Kadri or Ryan O'Reilly be realistic trade targets? David Montgomery was traded to the Texans yesterday for a 4th round pick, a 7th round pick and a little used offensive lineman. Should the Broncos have offered this or a little more? Finally, Troy is in Scottsdale for Rockies Spring Training. What's the temperature in the room from the players on how they feel about this season?
