When we control the glass, we can beat them.

Gotta keep being physical with Bynum and Ty needs to stay aggressive. Wouldn't hurt if Afflalo and Gallo could find their shot.

Ty remains the player the Nuggets need to rely on in order to win. If he takes over again, the games ours. If he decides to no show again, we might as well not make the plain flight back to LA for game 5.

I hope the Nuggets put this on the bulletin board, Bynum is making excuses saying he was not ready. Why is it so hard to so many people to accept that the Nuggets finally played their way, and actually won the game.

It must have been burning him inside that he was handled to say such a crap.

I like our chances & game 3 was what we have been waiting from this team whole season. Let's go get this thing. BEAT LA !

Keys to the game:

Hit 'em Hard - We need another start like Game 3, except we need Ty and Afflalo/Gallo to give us points
Defense - McGee, Mozzy, Afflalo and Brewer all need to play exceptional defense
Bench Production - Al, Dre, Brewer and McGee all need to score points efficiently
Rebounding - Faried, McGee need to repeat what they did last game and crash the boards
GK - Coach needs to trust his guys and allow them to play Denver Basketball = Defend - Run - Score
Kobe - let him shoot 7/23 again and jack up 10 threes

Denver by 14.

damn what a sad finish

clockwork · Post #13 » by **clockwork** » Mon May 7, 2012 4:07 am

i already knew this was going to be a **** up game after the first quarter when we had 6 fouls, they had none.

eathb_au · Post #14 » by **eathb_au** » Mon May 7, 2012 4:14 am

Well there's the season.

We need a damn shooter. And I can't believe we need to build a team around the coach... overplaying Dre and Al in the 4th quarter all over again.

clockwork · Post #15 » by **clockwork** » Mon May 7, 2012 4:17 am

afflalo bombed but who can blame him guarding kobe all night. miller had a good start and lost touch completely in the second half, did whatever the hell he wanted. harrington wasn't as bad, broken nose and all, he still drove the basketball harder than ty.

we can't rebound for ****, playing a 6'8 pf and 6'9 center doesn't exactly solve that.. also can't say the refs were on our side tonight, some touch fouls were complete bs.

Wow, that was some bad officiating. And Kerr's comment about Eu players flopping was probably one of the most idiotic I've ever heard, even for the simple fact that Gasol is European as well...

Gallo needs to touch the ball more, Miller didn't pass it to him a single time.

More of the same out of this squad...and coach.

i hope karl realizes that this undersized lineup doesn't work.

Miller is killing the team, I can't wait until they cut him loose next year.

The way Karl plays him kills this team, be careful what you wish for because next year the backup won't be nearly as good
