Denver 105, NOH 99

This is another one of those "ugly wins". I posted in another blog that Anthony needs to snap out of it. Hey he must of heard me because there was no better time to snap out of the slump than the 4th quarter where he scored 14 of his 32 points! Welcome back Melo!! =D

Utah also lost today which gives the Nuggets a 1 game lead over the previous Division leader. It also places the Nuggs at a tie with the New Orleans Hornets for 3rd place in the Western Conference. That is pretty good and I am hopeful that we start to become more consistent. There is only one way to find out, to see how we do against the Defending Champions, the same ones who have eliminated the Denver Nuggets in the first round for how many years?

I know AI will come out to play, as for everybody else, that is where we lack consistency. AI will be AI, if Anthony continues his recovery from his slump, Camby is the usual Minister of Defense, Najera does what he does, Martin continues his surprising comeback play and most importantly we get a third scorer hopefully in Martin, JR or Kleiza, we should have no problem beating the champs. That may be a tall order but hey, with this roster, it Can be done.

Go NUGGETS!!
