Nuggets fall to Rockets on Iguodala's missed buzzer beater

Well I said it was sure to be a offensive game and it didn't disappoint in that sense. However it did in the fact that the Nuggets just couldn't quite pull off the win in Houston last night. Despite a fantastic performance from Andre Iguodala putting up 35 points, 4 boards, 8 assists, and shooting 50% from downtown the Rockets beat the Nuggets by 3 with Iggy missing a buzzer beater to potentially send the game to OT. The Rockets were led by their two new guards Harden and Lin as they combined for 44 points, 11 boards, 13 assists, and 7 steals. Marcus Morris also posted a double-double for the hometown Rockets. In a side note for this one Ty Lawson and Danilo Gallinari suffered twisted ankles in the 4th and will miss the Nuggets next game against the Jazz.
