Didn't want to make a new topic.. watching the press conference with Josh and Masai

They said including Chauncey Billups was something they didn't want to do and had to think very hard about. Josh said it was the hardest decision of his life, and they looked for every way to not include him in a deal.

Over on the Knicks board a lot of people are saying that its BS, but I would like to know what you guys think. Most of the Knicks fans wanted to keep Felton badly

I don't think that there is a much BS to it as some might be led to believe, including him was the only way that the team was able to get under the luxury tax.

time for JR to step up and mature.
reports are saying we have interest in Thabeet...would it be worth trying him out?

KAVK · Post #7 » by **KAVK** » Wed Feb 23, 2011 2:39 am

It has been patience when it comes to J.R expectations. Really hope to see him mature.

It is good to see balanced effort rather tahn 1 or 2 player dominance!

JR really raising his value before the deadline.

I think that was the best half of basketball that the Nuggets have played this season. Hopefully, they will give a repeat performance of it in the 2nd half.

Keep at it! Nice one going here.

Love to see Ty getting ton of playing time.

All of them according to Ujiri.

Though I didn't see Chandler. Ujiri said that Felton told him not to trade any of the NY players because they're all ready to play.

This is great. I'm not dumb enough to expect this every night but love the effort. I hope Melo is watching..

could get used to watching a bunch of guys that play their butts off, defend hard and move the ball for 48 minutes.

that's been a rarity around here.

now add in felton, gallo, chandler and a couple 7 footers and we'll win a good number of games.

i'm not sure where to bet that the nuggets will make the playoffs, but i'd put a lot of money on it right now. karl loves these challenging situations where he actually coaches instead of sitting in his chair with his arms crossed letting things unfold. all the current nuggets players are gonna be out to prove they're capable of winning without melo. all the new nuggets players are gonna be out to prove the knicks were wrong to trade them for 2 stars.

we should have a very dangerous, motivated team for at least the rest of the season.
