Nuggets coach George Karl is happy to see his team getting closer to full strength, and has welcomed the issue of deciding playing time.

"You want to have the Renaldo Balkman problem," Karl said. "You want to have a Chris Andersen problem. You want to have an (Anthony Carter) problem and a J.R. (Smith) problem.

"You want your bench guys to be playing so well. And then it comes down to the circumstances of how you want to coach the game and the matchups you're involved with. The more weapons you have, the more versatility you have, the more options you have, usually the better team you are."
