If a person misses it, they can still catch a flight to Moscow and catch it early in the morning, so there are no excuses for not being able to watch the game.

Nugget defense in the first half consisted of trapping the ball 30 ft from the basket, allowing the pass, not rotating and giving up an easy shot.

Meanwhile the Bucks are playing simple m2m and clogging the lane when someone scores.

The Nuggets got one steal out of the trap but gave up at least 6 open shots. There's no need to double team the ballhandler, just play straight up m2m.

Nene should consider attacking the basket every game like he is doing tonight.

Melo ejected by a ref he wasn't even arguing with.....

I wonder if he would get this treatment if he was playing for a large market franchise?

Why isn't JR a starter now that he is playing so well?

Because Afflalo is consistent and JR is streaky.

JR has put together a nice string of games, he played well again tonight. Nene and Billups also had nice games tonight. If JR would have been the guy to get thrown out instead of Melo, how long do you think he would be in GK's doghouse?

JR has been a beast since coming back from his benching. This is the reason trading him would be very hard to do and why people who think he has no value are complete idiots.

In his post game interview he was asked about that rebound and step back three and he said something like "I was asking myself what george would think of it?" Imagine playing with the constant fear of disapproval and punishment. Jr plays with so much unecessary pressure from GK it's ridiculous.

JR has had more then his share of problems, but I have noticed him questioning himself too much this season, especially early. A few weeks ago JR had a wide open shot and was hesitating looking to pass, you could plainly hear Chauncey and others yelling at him to shoot it before he pulled the trigger. While Karl has been good somewhat for JR's all around game, you can not have your 2nd best scorer hesitating to take wide open shots.

I agree with George being tough on the dude. Now he just need to cut him a more slack and make him believe that he has it in him.

Even though he had sucked awhile, never liked the idea of trading him. I have noticed him becoming better fundamentally sound and much more controlled out there.
George Karl !
