I love how the second best team in the West, according to the pundits, has gone from San Antonio to Utah to Portland in the span of two weeks. Hilarious.

Yes it is extremely frustrating as a Nuggets fan...but as you pointed out last night... our interior play has not been very strong lately especially on our defensive glass. Right now most people will side with Houston or Portland being better than we are. The only thing we can do is show up on the court and play intense playoff basketball... If we attack and play physical tough D... I think this team can beat anyone.

What's the Nuggets record vs. Portland this year? No offense, but Im hoping the Nuggets lose and the Rockets beat Dallas, which wont be difficult at all actually. Anyways, I want that #2 seed !!!

Umm what? That scenario you just posted is the only way the Nuggets DON'T get the 2nd seed. Any of the other three possibilities would mean the Nuggets do get the 2nd seed.


The Nuggets are 2-1 against Portland this year, but even with a loss we still have the tiebreaker via better division record. Worst we can do is 3rd(aka no Lakers until WCF).

What's the status on Yao's foot? He is playing in this game? Or is he shut down until the playoffs begin?

I'm telling you guys. San Antonio and Dallas both win at home, and we're set for the playoffs (at least the first two rounds).

New Orleans in the first round....and then the winner of San Antonio/Dallas in the second round, with home court. That was the best possible outcome for tonight, and it worked out that way. Gotta love it.


Houston or Portland could have a slim shot to beat the Lakers in the second round as well. But either way, our path is about as easy as you could hope for.

Hey guy's, should we use this thread to discuss about other playoffs match up and rename the title since the seeding and division stuff are all over now. I also wouldn't mind creating another thread though.
