It's a good test. The Nuggets are a good team who is not playing as well as they could. Often, that team will shrug off their poor play and outclass SA. If the Spurs can win, it'll end up saying a lot about exactly one of the teams. Either Denver isn't a legit contender this year or SA is firmly a middle-of-bracket playoff team. We probably which of those is closer to the truth for another few months.
