Coming off the highest-scoring game of his career, Anthony looks to lead the Nuggets to their 11th consecutive victory over Minnesota, which is trying to avoid matching a franchise record with its 16th straight defeat.

"'Melo is one of the best players in the world," said point guard Chauncey Billups, who finished with a season-high 32 points. "If you've got him going like that, then you've got to ride him."

"Losing is like a form of depression. It wears on you and it drains energy out of you," rookie Jonny Flynn said after Friday's 120-95 loss to Phoenix. "You can see it all on your face. I think tonight it really started getting to us."

What's with the different random **** of pictures every new game thread? I mean, I oddly love it...but it just seems weird to me.

As for the game...should be another boring, sloppy win. If not, well **** me.

Glad you love it I guess this just shows what happens to a guy that decided to stay home while the rest of his family went away for the holiday weekend.

There is no way in hell that I would attempt to do these things for an entire season (props to those who have), so I was trying to make some sort of a template to use over and over again like Shady did last year. But, I haven't liked the results of my efforts, hence the changes (for example: Melo and Malik needed to be in white jerseys to keep everything uniform, the melo picture was my screw up, but I can't seem to locate a picture of Malik in a white Nuggets uniform).

If anyone else wants to give it a shot, by all means please be my guest. It wouldn't/shouldn't take much effort to surpass what I have done. I doubt very much that I will ever be accused of being tech savvy.

In all honesty, the throwback game threads that Corona was going to go with work for me, but I have been bored out of my mind, a guy can only drink so much MHZ was doing great with the game threads he was doing, but he has gone MIA for a good stretch of games now.

Agree on the game comment, it will probably be another fast paced high scoring game with little to no defense that the Nuggets should win.

I love the pics fresh and original. Keep em up!

Go Nugz!!!!

Thanks Snake, but I don't think it is anything special. If you want to see a nice game thread, check this one out:

...kings one is ok, I guess all the different pieces are nice to have but it seems a little busy so I still like el loco's and mhz's and even corona's minimalist thread

...maybe one item to add at the bottom is GK's +/- watch? Post had an article today saying how much he favors the +/-

if we did animated gifs I would just do one of our five players and make that gif the "play of the week" and leave all the other guys static pics

just some thoughts

That's crazy

But I dunno I like your effort here man... the more random it is the better it feels it feels original.

Who was doing the ones last year with the crazy graphics? Those were super nice.

The over/under on this game is 214
The Nuggets are favored by 16 for this game

Timberwolves are 20-6-1 ATS in their last 27 road games vs. a team with a winning home record.
Timberwolves are 11-5-1 ATS in their last 17 games as a road underdog of 11.0 or greater.

Ya that SAC one is crazy. I like how it has .gifs for all the players on the team but i agree it is a little busy.
It was hard to even tell where the game thread ended and the first post started lol.

I like the original and minimalist feel of ours so far.

We beat this team in MIN like a week ago we better not blow it at home. 17 home game win streak, and it should be 18 if are team plays even moderately well.

what the hell happened

no defense happened

Flat out ridiculous loss!!!!

Good Lord! It hurts even more when losing to team that is way below.

Chauncey Billups. Ignores Melo, takes bad shots, bricks bad shots.

I can't believe we beat you, wow...

Mr Brick Shot sure showed up tonight.

that was disappointing.

lol.

all nba teams are talented though, and can win on any night. i'm not that surprised or outraged. first time in the billups era we lose to a sub .500 team at home. this will be good motivation for awhile.

damn this one must really hurt..ouch

This and...

40 pt 1st quarter...19 from Melo...Karl takes out the 1st unit. Stupidity.

2nd unit needs to get mins in the 2nd half preferably late in the 3rd and 4th they've proven they can't hold leads just like the Clipper game.
