Lack of Media-Presence on Nuggets Training-Camp 

Post#1 » by Don_eMOCION#31 » Wed Oct 8, 2008 1:59 pm

I've noticed that there aren't many informations on the nuggets during their training camp. There are absolutely no photos (only the portraits from media day), videos or stuff like that.
I remember the time A.I. was in philly and i enjoyed the sixers side of basketball more than any other, and the thing is that they have updates/comments from coaches/videos/PHOTOS eeeeeevery single day of training camp.
That makes me kind of sad as a fan because the only thing i can read are comments from martin or articles from the denverpost or the rockymountainnews. I want direct coverage!

I want to see some pictures or videos... my impression is that the nuggets aren't a very media pleasant organisation... or am i just too stupid to find the right sources for more camp-coverage!!?

yea. i don't think they do a very good job media-wise at training camp. has been that way for as long as i can remember. altitude doesn't even cover the preseason games (i say don't even send hastings/marlowe - just send 2 camera guys and show it on TV....better than watching poker or whatever else they show). i'm going to denver to watch fridays game...and then saturday is on TNT, and i might go to wednesdays game too....but after that its all radio.

I went through my guide on my cable and I didn't see Real Training Camp for the Nuggets until Monday afternoon from 3PM to 5PM...

it was on a couple times today. tivo ftw

decent...not really worth the 2 hours though. typical hastings blabbering about how good the nuggets are gonna be and kamla pulling out all his (non-pace-adjusted) stats. then when you want to watch the actual practice, nbatv gives you a still shot of dog moe for 90 seconds instead.

nene didn't participate for some reason, but was seen with big smiles on the sideline. everyone else looked pretty usual. talked a lot about how kmart/melo/jr/lk came into camp better/committed/lighter/in shape, how important nene's going to be to the seasons success. apparently karl said this is the best training camp he's ever had a team go through. but i'll believe that when i see the product in november.

I'm not sure there's a ton of excitement this year. Unfortunately I think everybody thinks the world has come to an end because of Camby being gone, the team's going to give up 247 points per game.
