Key Matchup:

Nene has looked good the last couple games. Would like to see him more aggressive around the basket.

Melo had 31/7/3
Kmart scored 18 points on 9 shots.
Antoine Walker recorded 24/5/3

Denver: 19-12
Please god, stay healthy everyone.
Rank 14th in offense and 4th in defense.
Dare I say healthy for the first time in 3+ years?

Keys to winning:
Get a hand up on all perimeter shooters.
Move the ball from strong side to weak side consistently & quickly.
Limit turnovers.

Pictures:

tired of kmart blocking all his shot attempts, perhaps?

Dear God, Nene is an absolute monster. The guy's HUGE.

He'll need all of that strength and quickness to challenge the almighty 'Toine. (I'm only half kidding, he had a hell of a game against us last time)

what? Nene is a fat useless piece of crap. :blank:

We should win tonight, I'm not too worried. hopefully we blow them out by the fourth and can have our starters get some rest.

oberto looks like he is 50 years old in that picture guarding Nene.

I'd never thought I'd see the day when Duncan settles for all outside shots off the glass. I mean he's great at it, but he usually mixes it up.

Timmy's usually very quick around the glass so that even a quick defender has trouble keeping up with the quick pass/ offer up. Kenyon's got some quick hands.

we need to believe that we are able to defend bad teams. i think the nuggets said that they want to show everybody what they are capable of this month because we face the 4 best nba teams

The game is going to be close. They'll play the competition down significantly

let's keep it going

Kash · Post #18 » by **Kash** » Sat Jan 5, 2008 1:37 am

missed most of the first quarter, but it sounds like we started off pretty good, but we couldn't finish off the quarter strong. let's hope we blow them away in the second quarter.

Nuggs Iverson/Carter >>> 76ers Iverson/Snow
