bird just looks weighed down by all those tats.

koufos deserves more minutes and will probably get them once bird starts limping. yay.

32. Will Nene score more than his career high (28) points in a game this season? (3 points)
3 more points

lol tough luck.

I jinxed it

Im loving the addition of Rudy/Brewer. These 2 guys make Denver alot deeper and fun to watch. Rudy found his three point shot tonite and racked up 8 assists. You know Brewer is good enough for 2 steals a game and a couple of highlight dunks/plays.

Birdman looks really, really bad. I hope Faried gets more mins moving forward.

Nene was a monster, Lawson and Afflalo looked good, Gallinari found his shot and Big Al could be a 6th man of the year candidate. Miller could easily average a double double off the bench!

Tomorrows game vs Portland will be tough, but Denver's depth is going to help them

I love this team.

Rudy's passing and playmaking ability was something that surprised me tonight, I didn't know he had that in him. It got a little sloppy at the end, but he made a lot of great passes that led to easy buckets. Good to know that he can still contribute when his shot isn't falling.

Starters got plenty of rest, so we should be pretty fresh tomorrow in Portland.

rudy was used wrong until last season.

since he's european people thought and the coach wanted him to stay on the 3pt line and catch and shoot. that's not him.

Still, with all the injuries last year in Portland he played his game much more and looked good, even tho his shot was not falling aswell, but him off the pick roll was deadly last season.

he's like odom, he'll involve everyone in the second unit, especially the bigs (only if birdman didn't look as stiff as he's looking) even when andre isn't on the floor.

IMHO nuggets improved by leaps and bounds.

The small things need to be corrected right now (harrington getting at his best shape, everyone training FT at exhaustion, mozgov learning to play bigger, preparing the Zone D to combat Miami in a possible final. improving the help D (Chandler may help that in the playoffs) etc, then if this happen I really can see Denver winning the NBA title.

TY will be an all star, I have no doubt in my Mind. Nene is already rebounding better, nuggets are playing thru him in the post a lot. Affalo only needs to do what he already does, Gallo looking sharp, he'll need to gain a "cold-bloodness" gene to close some games and mozgov is looking solid.

The second unit could embarass every second unit in the league, except chicago's so...

As I said I can see Denver winning it all... First, Denver will play 10 man rotation and half of the games (80 of the home games) will be blowouts, so karl will probably use the whole bench, that leads to a fresh unit in the playoffs... and in a shortened season everything can happen (remember the 8th seeded knicks).

Who knows tho... An injury could change everything as usual in the NBA..

holy crap....

screw lob city...

we have by far the most exciting, fun & entertaining team in the league. and they're flipping GOOD.

this is gonna be an awesome season to watch.

i'm literally laughing and clapping on my couch after half the plays. just great basketball all around.

this and we dont flop like flop city does.

nice post but Al 6th man of the year? no chance. i dont trust this guy. he still has dumb turnovers, lots of offensive fouls, shoots too much when he should pass, etc...

when his shot is falling he great to have though.
