Nuggets Beat Streaking Rockets and Make Playoffs!

Awesome, Player of the Week AI lead the way!

Well, it has been a roller coaster ride for the Denver Nuggets and their fans. At least there is a happy ending, for now.

Allen Iverson, my second favorite player in the world after Michael Jordan (Sorry AI) really came through as one if not the leader of this team. AI did everything for this game, with 33 points, 7 Assists, and get this: 7 Rebounds, and wait, it gets better, 1 HUGE Block!

See Here:


That, my friends is why I like my Man AI, he wasn't born with all the advantages in the world like Shaq, or Lebron but his Heart makes up for it.

Things have been coming together for the Nuggets lately, well, most of the time. Everyone is entitled to have an off game and I believe Melo had 1 or 2 during these last couple of games, then, the DUI incident which is Stoopid, with a capital F. Sorry Melo but what if the Warriors Won? And what if you weren't able to play? Or worse, what if you got hurt, or you hurt someone? Don't you think that was stoopid especially knowing that you can afford to get a driver??

I'm in Guam dude but if you fly me over there I'll freakin drive you around no problem. Shiznit.

Anyway, what next for our Denver Nuggets? Playoffs Baby!!!!! Hey how we got here wasn't pretty but we are here, and we need to Play Like there is No Tomorrow! We are bottom seed, so basically we will be playing the top team in the West. This of course is unless the Hornets beat Dallas and Denver beats the Grizzlies, then we'd be 7th!

Either way, we will most probably get either the Lakers of the Hornets, both of which have beaten our Denver Nuggets most of the time this Season. If I were coach, I'd be studying why these teams have been beating us already..

I'm not coach though so for now, I'll just have to hope and pray that our Denver Nuggets get past the first round this time.

We will need EVERYBODY to step it up and help our Floor Leaders AI, Melo & Camby! C'mon K-Mart, JR, Najera, LK43, Nene!, you too Chucky, Steven and the new guy!

I absolutely Love it when JR, Linas and Najera comes in and boosts the team! That is great, our Bench will be the difference this year!

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 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.

Melo Unloads 49 on Wizards for Easy Win

In one of his best offensive games in a long time, Melo scores 49 against the Washington Wizards. I won't go into detail on this one, because actions speak louder than words. Instead I'm attaching the video for y'all to enjoy.

By the way AI had another Double-Double in Points and Assists in "one of the easiest games of his career".

Up next, another game we should win against a team that is even more shorthanded than we are.



Go Nuggets!!
