Wednesday, January, 4th, 7:00 PM (MST) - TV: CSCA, ALT



BENCH: Al Harrington, Andre Miller, Rudy Fernandez, Chris Andersen, Corey Brewer



BENCH: DeMarcus Cousins, Jimmer Fredette, Jason Thompson, Travis Outlaw, Isaiah Thomas

KEY MATCHUP:


INJURY REPORT:
Denver: Nene - Bruised foot.
Sacramento: None

denver will probably take this seeing as sacramento is on a back-to-back.

i'm going to this one so hopefully this is going to be a big scoring game.

Ty went home this morning with an illness but is expected to play today, Im expecting minutes to look like:

C - Mozzy - 14, Anderson - 14, Koufos - 10, Harrington - 10
PF - Koufos - 10, Harrington - 20, Gallo - 18
SF - Gallo - 20, Brewer - 20, Rudy - 8
SG - Afflalo - 26, Miller - 16, Rudy - 6
PG - Lawson - 30, Miller - 12, Rudy - 6

We need our Big 3 to play solid defense and rebound, Al to keep scoring, Gallo and Brewer to defend the wings, Afflalo to hit some shots, Ty and Dre to penetrate and pass, Rudy to be effective.

hope you don't mind eath but i'm gonna use your pics from your gamethread and use it on the kings forum since they don't have one up yet.

yay blowout!

first half impressions:
- wtf happened to al harringotn?. he passed up shots he would've taken last year and moved the ball instead. probably the best nuggets player this season.
- rudy is better when he doesn't shoot the 3.
- it's about time karl used a 10 man rotation. love what brewer brings.

Great team effort, some highlights:

-Shot 60% from the field, held the Kings to 32%
-31 assists - 6 players with 3 or more
-10 players played 18 mins or more - Brewer starting to get consistent minutes
-Our bench collected 62 points, 26 rebs, 19 assists, 8 steals, 9 blocks
-KK, Birdman and Mozzy were good inside

Besides the 27 TOs, this team is so fun to watch, entertaining and exciting.

That behind-the-head lob from Rudy to Faried was awesome!

I think we can beat the Hornets and Spurs! Nene back will help.

We are all witnesses of Michael Jordan Harrington

the alley-oop behind his back to faried was epic. it brought everybody on their feet!

Rudy pulled off some great passes, when he doesn't force his shot, he's a decent play maker. He should concentrate more on penetrating and scoring and/or passing, rather than shooting threes. Today his shot looked better, but he still fades away which he doesn't need to do, he could easily draw more fouls if he tried.

Whilst Brewer doesn't put up big numbers, he does a little of everything and runs, runs, runs. His defense is great, he's a good passer and he will dunk at every opportunity he gets.

These 2 additions have started to show their value for Denver and I hope they keep getting consistent minutes.

Crazy that we can turn the ball over that many times and still win by 30+ without Nene, but I think that just says more about how god awful the Kings are. Can't be too disappointed in the turnovers when most of them come from trying to make the extra pass though. Love how they spread the ball around.

Gallo - 6 shots
Koofis - 6 shots
Moz - 6 shots
Miller - 6 shots
Brewer - 6 shots
Afflalo - 8 shots
Ty - 9 shots
Al finishing with +31

Faried is a beast. The dunk from Rudy, the stuff on Outlaw, and then the taco-clutch free throws. Great to see them trying to get him the ball in 'recycling' minutes too. The crowd was dying for it and it just goes to show how unselfish this team is. Kleiza woulda put up 8 shots if given 10 minutes of garbage.

Also Rudy's girlfriend:

poor rudy

watched the hl and what a beautiful game it was... wow

Team ball style is so craved everyone talks about the teams with good balanced roster playing as a collective unit.

I like the way we changed a style of play in this one more of attack minded than settling for outside shots and hopefully they will keep doing it to gain confidence for their outside shots forward.

Koufos is clearly playing better than Mozgov at this point and Karl should scrap off minutes from both Bird and Mozgov to Koufos at LEAST.

Anybody has a time on Nene for how long he will be out? Faried needs a PT at least while Nene is out. He will do better than Bird guaranteed.

Good game. keep it rolling
