This was an intense game. Melo, K-Mart, and the rest of the Nuggets came out with chips on their shoulders, and the Rockets responded and didn't back down. It's hard to tell from these highlights, but this game was pretty much a war, which made it fun to (re-)watch. Neither side was backing down and it got physical and chippy, with lots of trash talking, multiple technical fouls, and the Nuggets even trying to verbally intimidate Yao (lolz). T-Mac guarding Melo in the post, trying to deny him the ball, was a battle. Since the Nuggets were on a SEGABABA, they seemed to fizzle out in the 4th Q and couldn't maintain their intensity.
