The Denver Nuggets need to finish strong despite their brutal end-of-season schedule in order to retain the second seed in the West. These ten 'must-win' games could make or break their hold on home court advantage in the playoffs.
The Denver Nuggets will need to dig deep to find enough wins in their brutal end-of-season schedule to keep hold of the second seed in the Western Conference. The end of the 2018-19 NBA regular season is rapidly approaching, with its final day less than a month away on April 10, and the games remaining for every team numbering in the teens.
Potentially working to the Nuggets’ disadvantage, on the other hand, is the remaining strength of schedule for the teams battling for seeding, and the details of Denver’s schedule in particular. Of the teams competing for the West’s top five spots, only Oklahoma City and Denver have remaining strengths of schedule, or the average win percentage of the opposing teams which remain on their schedule, which are over .500.
But with the eight-hardest remaining strength of schedule in the league, where will those wins come from? Looking ahead at their final regular season schedule stretch, ten games stand out as “must-wins” for the Nuggets if they are to secure the number two spot in the West, and the reasoning for this is fairly straightforward.
