Lakers Own Nuggets, Sweep Season & Series

Well, overall, all things considered, it was an Ok season for the Nuggets. 50 Wins in a Season for the first time in 20 years is not bad for a team who lost 2 of it's supposed Starters for majority of the season.

When it comes to the Nuggets against the Lakers, it is plain embarrassing. We might as well have been the Miami Heat out there, they would have probably at least tried harder. I'm not saying that the players didn't try, I'm saying that I figured out the Lakers Offense but George Karl didn't. Hell it even took 83 games for Karl to notice that we had a mismatch against the Lakers. AI, who had a hot hand in game 3 was benched etc. etc.. Karl was probably too excited that his Son was on a Lakers squad that could go to the Finals. Anyway please see all my other previous posts on what I would have done differently.

I am still confident to this day that: "IF I WERE COACH OF THE DENVER NUGGETS, WE WOULD HAVE GOTTEN 60 WINS AND OUT OF THE FIRST ROUND OF THE PLAYOFFS AS WINNERS". There is simply no excuse for a team with this amount of talent to not do well, especially against a team comprised of mostly mediocre players like the Lakers. As I mentioned in my post, all we needed to do was recognize and defend their "FAKE & PASS or DRIVE & PASS until they HIT THE OPEN MAN OFFENSE".

If you would like to see my other suggestions for this Denver Nuggets Team, just look at my previous posts. Sometimes I wonder if the Denver Nuggets have any Analysts or Coaching Staff with Brains, or at least some Basketball IQ. Too bad they don't do any research on the internet because we fans had a lot of ideas for this team, oh well.

And with that, with the END OF THE DENVER NUGGET'S SEASON, I END THIS BLOG, and depending on what moves are made during the Off-Season, I'll decide on whether or not to BLOG about the Nuggets again. If Coach Karl is replaced with someone that has FIRE and an emphasis on D, and most especially can control the likes of AI and Anthony, I'll definitely be back.

Till then, I will tuck my tail between my legs and run away like the EMBARRASSED NuggSter that I am.

To the DENVER NUGGETS PLAYERS:

AI & MELO: I specifically hoped (in my previous posts) that you would not try to do it yourselves and to trust in your talented teammates. AI's assists went down and Melo took TOO MANY JUMPERS with a lack of effort to ATTACK THE RIM OR PASS THE BALL. Melo I think you should be humbled by this experience and defer the leadership of this team to AI, learn from him for a couple of years and then take over when AI says you are ready. With Melo as the leader, and everybody FOLLOWING the LEADER, everyone is taking contested jumpers, not attacking the rim, not hitting the boards, not passing the ball and so on and so forth.

MARCUS: I think everybody hates that you take those long shots that are literally that. With your height and athletic ability you should be dunking the ball.

Everyone Else: I really like this team, I just wish it worked out Defensively for you all. I think it is a mix of a lack of good coaching and leadership that did this team in. Kleiza and JR have shown that they can be All-Stars if they put their minds to it.

IF THE NUGGETS PLAYED AS A TEAM: THEY COULD EASILY BE LIKE AN ALL-STAR TEAM.

At the end of the day, we the fans felt like we wanted it more than they did, and we go home to our normal lives after the losses while they go back to being pimpin' millionaires and who knows, maybe they were tired of the season and wanted to "chill"?

I actually wish we didn't make the Playoffs instead of getting sweeped like this, it is more embarrassing & Nuggets Fans will never hear the end of it from the Laker's Fans.

Let's just hope for the best for next season, maybe we can land defensive minded players like Raja Bell who was with AI in the Finals in 2001 and led the Suns to a Win over the Spurs.. Wishful Thinking...

Nuggets Win Must-Win Showdown with Warriors

In what was probably the biggest Regular Season Game for our Denver Nuggets, the stars aligned, namely Allen Iverson, Carmelo Anthony and an awesome performance off the bench by JR Smith.

Our stars outshined their stars, that is what happened. Realistically, it could have easily gone the other way, Golden State got plenty more Rebounds, Assists and Attempts than our Nuggets did. If Baron Davis and Stephen Jackson had hot shooting hands that night we could have been in big trouble.

My point is this: It was not a pretty win, but I'll take it! Although to beat better teams, we cannot get outrebounded like that and we need to take better shots by passing the ball around better. I am glad though that the Free Throw percentage was a little better, if it wasn't we probably would have gone down the wire with them where the Warriors are the most dangerous.

Overall I'm happy with this win, I just hope that our team fixes their problems and remember that we still owe the JAZZ, and OKUR for tearing us a new one the last time we played them.

Put K-Mart on OKUR and don't let him make any 3's. Seriously.

JR catches FAYAh! to help the Nuggets finish off the hot Grizzlies

JR gave us 27 pts, 1 reb, 1 ast & 1 stl in 21 minutes. What?

C'mon, I've been saying this for the past couple of months:



"Put AI on Point and Start JR at Shooting Guard!" - see details below in "If I Were Coach of the Denver Nuggets".

Ok so we got another win which makes it 3 in a row, again, now historically I would have expected us to lose the next one which would have been against Nowitzki and the Dallas Mavericks but in an odd twist of fate we are going to get the Mavericks without their leader.

Now I expect that we should be able to blow them out of the Pepsi Center but, I will not get my hopes up, for 2 reasons:

1. Historically, the Nuggets, haven't won more than 3 in a row this season, maybe we get lazy, maybe we just don't want it, maybe we're just tired, whatever the reason is, that's how its been.

2. Watch for the rest of the Mavericks to bring their "A" Game while we start off slow and barely keep up. ( I would love to be wrong on this, seriously )

In a perfect world our All-Star Team Denver Nuggets will win by 30. In the real world, we'll probably barely get the win, if we get it at all.

I'm still just hoping for the best for our favorite Team the Denver Nuggets.

My Message to the Nuggz:

AI - AI you continue to inspire us, your efficiency is under appreciated, although you will always be underrated compared to the likes of CP3 or Nash because of the assists category. Don't worry, CB is just jealous, but like I keep saying, you can easily get a dub-dub every night in pts/ast if you wanted it.

Melo - You are still the Man Melo. I think you are still not as agressive as we want to see you though. Like AI said, with your height and athleticism, if you wanted it, you'd easily get a dub-dub in pts/reb every night. Also I wish you took it to the hole more often, especially when you miss more than 2 jump shots in a row. Help Camby get the ball.

Camby - You sir are a monster, the only thing I don't get is why you choose to take so many low percentage jump shots? At your height and capability you could easily either take a quick fake, then dunk it, or just dunk it on anybody. Sometimes you dissappear, like in Philly, what happened there?

K-Mart - You have been making the difference lately K-mart, keep it up the team really needs you especially without Nene. Help Camby get the ball.

JR - Dang, you could be so good. You are good, but I think coach is still worried about your decision making, but just keep playing smart and bring it every time you get on the court, man you are something else. I seriously think you can be the 3rd All-Star on this team, show us JR.

AC - You've been doing a solid job on both ends of the court, keep workin on those 3 pointers because consistency is what we lack.

CA - I hope you get more minutes and are able to show us what you bring to the team. Keep working on your 3 pointers too cause I haven't seen you make a lot. I know you just need to get your groove back.

Najera - The unsung hero. Your hard work is very much appreciated and remains vital to the team winning games. Your 3 point shooting is very much a bonus too, way to find ways to contribute to the Team!

Hunter - Sorry you haven't been getting the minutes but hey, I believe you have the capability to do so much with your height and athleticism. Just keep working on your game and I hope you'll get more minutes.

Diawara - I think you can be a stopper. I think you could be a clean "Bowen" type player, you can also hit the 3. I hope you get more minutes too.

TG - Sorry don't know much about you yet. Hope you get a chance to show yourself.

Nene - I hope everything is fine and you are getting healthier and better everyday. Come back as soon as you can Ok? Your team misses you and we the fans miss you too! I honestly believe we would be at the TOP of the WEST right now if you weren't out!

Nuggets still inconsistent, lose to Pistons and Philly.

Well folks, I think I hit rock-bottom with this last lass to the Sixers. Without being able to watch the game, the problems were obvious. Marcus didn't show up today (wassup Marcus?) & we missed a lot of free throws, enough to have won us the game.

I just can't get over how inconsistent our team can be. From winning by an average of 35 pts per game to getting blown out, then losing to a sub .500 team. In these past 2 games why is it that the 3rd quarter is the only one we do a good job?

What is that I smell? Oh that is the smell of De-Feat, and it stinks..

Unfortunately at this rate we will not be seeing our Denver Nuggets in the Playoffs this year. It seems as though our team just does not have the desire and toughness that the likes of the Houston Rockets have to make a run.

What's left? I'm gonna have to decide on who I'll be rooting for in the playoffs..

I feel bad for AI because:

1. his new team is not likely to make the playoffs, his old team is,
2. his old team beat his new team, again.

Oh well, at the end of the day we are just fans and they are still superstar millionaires that get to play ball for a living. So I imagine that I feel worse than they do because my passion for basketball is my escape from the real world where I continue to struggle with and now I have nothing to root for.

To the Denver Nuggets, sorry, I've lost hope for this season, until further notice.

To my fellow Denver Nuggets Fans, I'm not quitting on the team, I am merely being realistic.

Go Nuggets for Next Year!

Nuggets break their own record in Blowout of the Sonics

Well I gotta say that this how us fans imagined how good out Denver Nuggets team really is. The only question is can they keep it going and remain consistent to make a playoff push?

It remains to be seen and a good test will be coming up on the next road trip to the east coast. First up, the Detroit Pistons who are not as good as we are Offensively but Defensively they are good. They have at least 3 shotblockers on their team so we really need to play smart, keep passing the ball, get the open man and go to the hole.

Then, AI and the Nuggets will be visiting his old team the Sixers who are still below .500 but are making the playoffs, not to mention that they are on some sort of winning streak. The Nuggets need to support AI and and show the Sixers that AI made the right choice and went to a better team. If they control Iggy, they'll control the game. JR vs. Iggy sounds good to me.

Anyway, this past blowout, one word. Wow. Take in the fact that not one Nugget played for more than 27 minutes, makes it even more amazing. Could it be that the Nuggets are finally getting it together?? Let's not get our hopes up just yet and see what happens on the first road game and first real test since the Nuggets started blowing out other teams.

Here is some video for your enjoyment of our last "show-time" showing.

AI hurt, Melo struggled, Nuggets still blow out Grizzlies

I didn't post anything on the loss in San Antonio because it was disappointing and positive at the same time. It was a game that went back and forth, neither team played exceptionally well and it came down to San Antonio's experience as it all fell apart for the Nuggets in the last 2 minutes of the game. All I could really say about the Nugget's stats are that there weren't a lot of assists so I imagine there was a lot of 1 on 1 action as opposed to team basketball. Good thing the rest of the Nuggets were more than enough to handle the Memphis Grizzlies who I think are dee-dee-dees for trading Gasol. ;)

With this win the Nuggets officially got their best 64-Game start in 20 years. So let's for a moment appreciate that they have improved significantly since AI arrived in Denver. Let's also appreciate that the WEST is crazy this year. Everybody improved, and there are a lot of improved teams in the west. Even with their best start in 20 years, the Nuggets are STILL on the outside looking in,... WHAT??

To put it into perspective, in the East, AI's old team the Sixers are still 3 games below .500 and they would still make the playoffs if they were to play today! That is how lopsided the EAST and WEST are this year. Frankly I don't think it is fair that the Sixers would make the Playoffs and the Nuggets wouldn't. I think the playoffs should have the top 16 teams, period.

Anyway, this win was a given, a supposed to win, but didn't mean too much because again, the Warriors and the Jazz won too so we didn't gain any ground.

Let's not get our hopes up but the Nuggets NEED to win ALL OF THEIR UPCOMING GAMES especially the ones that are supposed to be easy to have a chance. Otherwise they will be spectators come playoff time too.

I don't think a team with that much talend and pride would want that to happen so we should see some better effort, I hope.

Nuggets Stop Defending Champ Spurs 11-Game Winning Streak

WWWOOOOOOOHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! That was an awesome show of poise and teamwork by our DENVER NUGGETS! You should have seen me jumping and yelling in front of my TV! I think this is the happiest I have been all season as a FAN. =D

2 BIG WINS IN 2 BIG GAMES IN A ROW. YES!!!!

Melo had a tough first half but he came out determined to turn it around in the 2nd and that is what he did, he kept fighting, that's the way to do it Melo. Especially when he kept taking it to the hole, good job, great job. AI kept us going all game, but I have to give credit to my boy Najera as the unsung Hero of this game. Najera and JR ( again ) had excellent games coming off the bench.

Negative: again, FREE THROWS. It would have been a BLOW OUT if we had a respectable FREE THROW PERCENTAGE. It has been below 70% in the past 2 games. C'mon guys? REALLY?

I think the Minister of D was kind of out of it today too. Everyone is entitled to one of those once in awhile though, he still held it down.

THANK YOU TO OUR DENVER NUGGETS FOR MAKING US PROUD!! =)

NEXT UP, THE JAZZ, ON THE ROAD, TO WIN WE NEED TO CONTAIN IVERSON'S OLD TEAM MATE KYLE KORVER and the OTHER 3 POINT SHOOTERS.

Inside I'm confident of Boozer not getting his way against Marcus, K-mart, Melo AND Najera,.. NO WAY. NEVER LEAVE KYLE KORVER, NO BREATHING ROOM, PERIOD.

WHAT MORE IF NENE WAS BACK!!?? We would definitely be a SCARY TEAM! It's OK THOUGH, WE HAVE ENOUGH TALENT AND HEART ON THIS TEAM TO WIN EVEN AS IT IS. PLEASE COME BACK SOON NENE.

WELCOME BACK TO CHUCKY ATKINS, I HOPE YOU START MAKING YOUR SHOTS.

JR & Najera, KEEP IT GOING GUYS WE NEED YOU, YOU TOO LK43, WAKE UP!!

LET'S KEEP IT GOING NUGGETS!!

All Stars AI and Melo Lead Nuggets to Ugly Win over Clippers

Things are not looking good for our Denver Nuggets. In a game that they should have won easily, they looked slow and off target, especially from the 3 point line. They gave up individual career highs again and almost lost to a severely depleted Clippers team that is one of the worst offensive teams in the league.

Like I have said before, the Denver Nuggets are the buffet line of career and team highs for their opponents.. =P'

This is a first time in awhile that I have been able to watch them on TV and let's just say AI was the only one who truly impressed me, and Melo at specially at the very end of the game. Camby was quietly getting his double double on but that was pretty much it.

I WAS MORE EMOTIONAL THAN MOST OF THE PLAYERS, ESPECIALLY MORE THAN COACH KARL. I'LL NEVER UNDERSTAND THAT. I'D BE SCREAMING AT THEM ONCE THE LESSER TEAM STARTS TO COME BACK. BUT NO,.. IT WAS UP TO AI AND MELO TO DECIDE THAT THEY WANTED TO WIN THE GAME AT THE VERY END. WHEN THEY GET THE LEAD THEY SHOULD NEVER WANT TO RELINQUISH IT. AI, MELO and MARCUS SHOULD BE SCREAMING AT WHOEVER IS NOT DOING THEIR JOB DEFENSIVELY EVEN IF IT IS ONE OF THEM, ESPECIALLY SINCE KARL ISN'T.

This week we play the best teams and we will truly see if the rest of the Nuggets want it as bad as AI does, simple as that.

I say put AI on point, and start JR Smith as shooting guard. This would be my starting 5:

SF Melo / PF K-Mart / C MC / PG AI / SG JR

This will do a couple of things:

1. Increase our height around the perimeter,


2. Be able to match the height of taller shooting guards,


3. Improve perimeter D with better height and athleticism,


4. Give AI an opportunity to get over 10 Assists with his points, {22-3? with those stats}


5. Keeps opponents guessing, everyone knows that AC wants to pass and doesn't like to score, so ultimately it would improve our offense even MORE.

Not to mention that a fast break with AI and JR would be much more potent than AI and AC because all of the players would already know that AI will be taking the shot. The only disclaimer is that the 10-10 rule would need to apply to JR too. He will need to take it to the hole 10 times and get 10 free throws before he takes a three, unless he is really open, .. or he's got the HOT HAND.

Bottom-Line: We as fans can only do or say too much. With this tough week coming up with all the top teams that we will be playing, all we can do is hope for the best but expect the worst, unfortunately. If their last game was any indication of their heart and desire to win, I'll have to be pessimistic. We hardly beat the Clippers and the Pistons beat them by 30 today.

If we don't keep winning, we won't even make the playoffs, and AI's old team the Sixers will, how sad is that? =P'

Hopeful Nugget Fan,

Nuggets finally win, here is the Good News, Bad News

Good News / Bad News for the Denver Nuggets

The win was a Record-Setting Win / It was against the Sonics

We Finally Won a game we were supposed to / The Utah Jazz and the Portland Trailblazers Won too

We ended the losing streak / We are still in 9th place in the Western Conference

The Nuggets played like we've always imagined they could / Watch out, next game might be the opposite =P

I could go on, but I won't. I'll just hope and pray that our Denver Nuggets finally realize what they are capable of and put it together if not for themselves, for all of us that believe in them.

Eventual "Superman" Dunker Dwight Howard OverPowers Nuggets

Just days before winning the Slam Dunk Contest with his now famous "Superman" Dunk, Dwight Howard showed us what he is capable of. 24 Rebounds and 23 Points, yes, in 1 game. This is unfortunately what gave the Nuggets another loss leading to the All-Star Break. For the Nuggets, it was more of the same inconsistency, this time our Minister of D-Fense might have gotten bit by the bug.

At any rate, for now, let's support our All-Star Duo who are STARTERs tonight and hope that after the break we can finally see what this team is capable and made of.

Right after the break, we will possibly defend our home against the best team in the league, with Garnett back. This is what I call a statement game. If our NUGGETS lose this game they might as well give up on anything more than the first round of the playoffs, if they get there at all given how the West is in a tight race right now.

As fans, we can only hope.

Go NUGGETS!!

Nuggets Blow-Out the Cavs On The Road

Winning on the road is one thing, winning big on the road is another. Both teams were shorthanded but I believe LeBron was reminded tonight of how better Melo's team is. Although the Nugget's just won a game that they were supposed to, they had a very good game by winning by 30 points and by getting everyone involved.

The trio of Melo-AI-JR Smith lead the offensive attack while AI distributed the ball well with 13 assists.

I think my challenge to my long time favorite player AI (even before Melo) somehow got to him because if I am not mistaken he is averaging a little over 10 assists per game over the last 5 or so games since I blogged about my challenge to my idol.

If that is the case and he is putting his mind to it, and shooting for the double-double in points and assists, it is just a matter of time before the Nugget's go on longer winning streaks and AI gets the same respect that Nash gets from NBA Analysts, except for those ex-players that carry any kind of bias against AI. You know who you are. ;) Who knows, if you play like that in the All-Star game there might be another All-Star MVP Award for you AI. Imagine how easy it will be to get assists with Kobe and Melo to pass to. =D

GO NUGGETS!!

Melo's Double-Double and the Answer's last second jumper in Road Win in Portland

In what may have been the biggest regular season game for the Denver Nuggets, our All-Stars shined like no others on this night. Melo had a monster double-double and AI hit the most important shots of the game, twice. All this was without the Minister of D-fense mind you, and don't forget about Nene either.

Bottom-Line, it wasn't pretty, we didn't dominate it, but we fought throughout and emerged victorious. What does this mean? It gives the Denver Nuggets the momentum heading into a head to head with the Division Leaders Jazz and it shows us what the team is capable of even without some of the key components.

I really hope Marcus is better and comes back to us soon so we can have a better presence down low.

Next up we measure our Denver Nuggets up with the Division Leaders Utah Jazz who have been winning since they acquired AI's ex-teammate on the Sixers 3-Point specialist Kyle Korver. Guess what the Nugget's Achilles' Heel is? Yup, the 3-Pointer. We'll need to sick Defensive Specialist Diawara on Korver if we want a chance to win this one.

Let's just hope that Coach Karl has a plan on how to contain Korver.

Let's keep it goin' NUGGETS!!

Camby out, Najera out, AI and Melo double-doubles in 20th Win at Home against the Bobcats

The Nuggets are now 20-1 when AI gets a double-double in 24 Points and 13 Assists (he even managed to pull down 6 rebounds!), and this time without Camby, Najera and Nene. It helped that Melo is back from his ankle injury and was able to come back with a double-double himself of course.

Could AI and Melo have gotten wind of my challenge to them? Them being my 2 favorite players in the world, I challenge both of them to show us that that they are more than 1 dimensional players, we all know they can score, but...

Here is my belief:

If AI continues to get double-doubles in Points & Assists, and Melo continues to get double-doubles in Points & Rebounds, they will lead the Nuggets to more wins, and they will get the respect that they deserve from their critics. For as long as all they bring to the table is scoring, they will only be viewed as selfish players who hog the ball. Of course there needs to be continued improvement on defense too, but if they shoot for those dub-dubs night in and night out we should start to see some longer winning streaks, get deeper into the playoffs and who knows, even win a Championship!

Good job again from Linas Kleiza who seems to be getting back into a rythm and congratulations to Steven Hunter for finally showing some signs of life. From what I've seen from him he can be a younger Marcus Camby if he wants it and continues to work on it, maybe the Minister of D-fense could work with him on that.

For now, I hope AI, Melo and Camby see this and consider some of my ideas.

I would still like to see some set plays between these awesome players. With the talent available on this team, they are only limited by their own creativity and determination.

Go NUGGETS!!

AI's Double-Double is Nuggets Winning Formula

I've said this over and over on different forums, even Melo's Yardbarker Page. Basically with this win on the Road (finally) against the Grizzlies, the Nuggets now improved to 19-1 when AI has a Dub-Dub in Points and Assists. The only loss if I am not mistaken is his very first game with the Nuggets.

My suggestion to my favorite player AI is to go after the Dub-Dub because I'm no genius but with that stat of 19-1 it is a virtually guaranteed win, so why not?

It translates into about 3 assists per quarter, and with all the attention he gets, it should be easy, provided that the recipient of the pass makes the open shot. It will turn him into more than just a scorer, and more than a 1-dimensional player and most importantly, the Nuggets will keep winning! Win-Win situation don't you think?

Winning Formula: AI > 10 pts + AI > 10 ast = WIN

Simple right? Not really, AI needs to first find this blog, then AI needs to challenge himself to do this for the team. He has proven to the world that he can score, now he needs to prove that he can make his team better and win. Think about it, THE FORMULA WORKED EVEN WITHOUT MELO, NENE AND ON THE ROAD EVEN.

If I know him and his desire to win like I think I do, this is what he wants, and he is capable of doing it.

If you in any way can get him to read this, please do, for the Nugget's sake.

Go NUGGETS!!

Nuggets Win another game without Anthony over Nets.

For the 2nd game in a row, Martin and Kleiza scored at least 20 each to help Iverson's 30 and the Nugget's Offense. The only other bright spot on the offensive end for the Nuggets was Najera's 12 points off the bench.

AC was 1 for 8, JR was 1 for 7 and Diawara was 0 for 3. Again, we shot a horrendous 21.7% from the 3-point line, which obviously is the weakness that I have been mentioning over and over again. We didn't have a lot of assists either.

Luckily what we did get is a Win.

Not being able to watch the games leaves me only room for speculation so all I can hope for is that Karl is doing something to address their issues.

For now, we are back on top of the Division, but next up is a road game in Dallas which will not be easy enough to win with these problems that we have.

As a fan, all I can hope for is the best especially because the last time My DENVER NUGGETs played a game on TV they got blown out by the Lakers.

Here's hoping for the best, Go NUGGETS!!

Iverson bails out the Nuggets for a Series Sweep over the Wolves

AI made a couple of plays at the end to finish off the Wolves. The Answer is definitely the Hero of this game for the Nuggets.

Here are the problems though:

1. The Nuggets gave up an early 14 point lead in the first half,


2. The Nuggets allowed 60 points in the first half on about 60% shooting,


3. Of course Nene and Martin are out and noone knows when their comin back,


4. Who knows when Hunter will be able to help,


5. Coach Karl publicly doesn't seem to believe in his own team!

From ESPN:

"I feel like a thief tonight," said Karl, whose team finished 4-0 against Minnesota this season. "We weren't the better team, but we won. I'm happy we don't have to play them again. If we did, we would probably lose."

WTF!!?? How the hell does a coach say that about his own team??! I would understand if Pat Riley said it about the Heat but Karl on the Nuggets??!! Ok maybe that is not what he meant but he could have been more specific don't you think? If he means considering they are short-handed or considering how lousy our play was we would lose if we tried that again, .. then that's how he should have said it.

I d0n't know about you but it is really hard to win when your own coach doesn't believe you can win.

Then, our next stop is at the Lakers, where Karl's son plays, so who is he gonna support? The Nuggets or his son's Lakers?? =P

As for us,... We really could use a road win especially against the Lakers who have manhandled us in previous meetings.

Go NUGGETS!!

Denver Nuggets Win on the Road against Warriors!

Being the Number 1 Fan of the Denver Nuggets, I really hope that they can start to get something going by now. This was a pretty good win on the road against the 2nd Highest scoring team in the NBA lead by who else? The best scoring DUO in the NBA! Next up, they need to come out with even more energy to defend their home court against these Warriors. We need to learn how to defend the 3's, that's how we lost to the Spurs last year, remember?

Anyway, kudos to the DENVER NUGGETS for this good ROAD WIN.

After defending their home against the Warriors, I believe we have a test against the Spurs,.. please please NUGGETS show them what we (6th man) can do!!

Go NUGGETS!!
