Seems that team chemistry is why Vo gets the start. However he has had a great pre-season so far. So I'm hoping that can translate over to the regular season.

Nuggets guard Voshon Lenard will open another season as Denver's starting shooting guard, according to the Rocky Mountain News. He held off DerMarr Johnson for the starting job. "The edge is that Vo plays well with (starting point guard Andre Miller)," Karl said.

SG by committee. I'm more concerned about who will be on the floor in the 4th quarter and will George be willing to go with the hot hand on a game by game basis

Good point cpawfan. I believe you are right on the money that who the starter isn't as important as to who's playing the best. That will help the team win more games. However I'm sure you have noticed youself that Lenard has been playing great basketball in the pre-season. So I'm happy with him getting the starting role. Also DerMarr had a nice pre-season, so I have no doubt that he is right there with Lenard for playing time.

Johnson said he could "sense" Lenard would win the job. Johnson did not play Wednesday, as Karl gave him a night off.
