PLN 7: Nuggets rally from 18 down to win in OT

I read "Nuggets rally from 18 down, win OT" by Chris Tomasson I think what matters to the Nuggets is winning their first game of the season, because that is a good tone to set for the season, and hopefully another win towards their cause of making the playoffs, and winning a world championship. The Nuggets played the Los Angeles Clippers at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, and after struggling in the first in the first half, the Nuggets came back in the second half to dominate play, and come back from an 18 point deficet to force overtime. What matters to the Nuggets is getting their first win of the season, the Nuggets also showed how well they can play in one half, and if they play that way for the rest of the season they can be a dominating team in the West. This relates to me because it is great to see a team from my home city doing well, and it makes people relize that the Nuggets can be a legitimate team in the Western conference. This also applies to the world because when a city's sports teams are doing well the mood around the city changes so much, last year the whole Denver area was filled with excitement when the Rockies reached the World Series for the first time in the franchise's history, sports can make the difference between a good day and a bad day, it gives us all a common cause to root for, and it is something that most people can talk to each other about and something that makes life fun
