AI, Melo Lead Nuggets deal Celtics First Loss in West Coast



AI finished with 28 points, 9 assists & 7 rebounds to pace the Nuggets. Pretty impressive for the smallest guy on the court don't you think? That shows us that he's got more heart than everyone assumes. Melo had similar stats with 29 points, 4 assists & 7 rebounds. With a total of 6 players in double figures the Nuggets made me proud to be a fan today. As I said earlier, this may have been just another game to them but at this point in the season, with the tight race in the West, whether they admit it or not, this was a statement game.

There were goods in bads in the game but all that matters is that we got the win. The Nuggets have accomplished what no team in the West have been able to so far this season, beat the top seed with the best record in the league, the Boston Celtics.

The DENVER NUGGETS won this game as a TEAM with almost everyone who played contributing significantly to the win. Most especially great play on defense again from Marcus and K-mart. LK43 had hot shooting coming off the bench as well. If only we could play like this every night,.. ** Wishful Thinking...**

I've said it before, and I'll said it again, with the talent on this team, we can WIN against ANY TEAM, but with the inconsistencies on this team we can LOSE to ANY TEAM as well.

Let's hope that this start is a sign of things to come for the remainder of this season.

The time to start winning consistently for the Denver Nuggets is NOW.

GO NUGGETS!!
