Ty Lawson Urges People Not to Sleep on Nuggets

Los Angeles Lakers v Denver Nuggets - Game SixNot many will remember, but two years ago, the Denver Nuggets won 57 games. And if they hadn’t lost Danilo Gallinari to a torn ACL towards the end of that campaign, who knows what would’ve happened in the playoffs.

They usually have a solid roster, but injuries are usually the question mark with this team. If they can somehow find a way to stay healthy, they could create some noise out west. Ty Lawson seems to think so as well.

“People,” Lawson said, “are probably going to sleep on us this year because of what happened last year….

“This year it’s going to be more of a defensive mindset. I already know we can score, everybody knows we can score with the best of them. But my mindset going into training camp is everybody buying into the defensive end. We’ve got to make stops. I feel like if we can do that, and score in the half court, we’ll be one of the top teams out there.”
