The JazzâNuggets rivalry is a National Basketball Association (NBA) rivalry between the Utah Jazz and the Denver Nuggets. The rivalry dates back to the 1976â77 NBA season, when the Nuggets joined the NBA as a result of the ABAâNBA merger. The rivalry is notable in that it features the only two NBA teams based in the Rocky Mountains. [2] [3] [4] [5]
A good argument can be made that the Jazz are the Nuggets' biggest rival. First, they're the only two teams located in the Rocky Mountains.
