Got this tidbit from the SI power rankings:
Denver Nuggets (8-6)
Even with a supposed sage like Chauncey Billups as floor general, the Nuggets can frequently look like a sloppy, heedless team. But, in fact, their offensive attack is plenty smart: They lead the NBA in shots attempted at the rim (which, of course, are the easiest ones to make) by a wide margin and rank sixth in three-point attempts while converting those threes with slightly above-average accuracy. That's how they rank sixth in offensive efficiency despite lots of clanking from Billups (34.4 percent shooting), J.R. Smith (38.8 percent), Al Harrington (41.3 percent) and Ty Lawson (44.1 percent and only 28 percent from three-point range).

Just Think how good the O will be once those shots start falling.
