Deron is listed as out or are you just assuming?

Lucky charm is passable.

I'm going to this game tomorrow. They better not let me down!
I should take in three four five drinks just in case to ease the pain.

I might be going to the game tomorrow. I got an e-mail from the Nets since no one wants to see them play anymore offering $30 lower level seats and $10 upper level. However, when I get on their website 2 of the 3 options are for lower level ($30) and the third for upper level ($10). Both options for the lower level have given me this error "Sorry, your request could not be completed at this time. " so I'm not sure if they're no longer available or Ticketmaster's website sucks.

Nuggets have won 6 straight.


Plus Brian Shaw probably hates us for passing up on him.

He's out tomorrow, and doubtful for Thursday. Really hoping he comes back by the Knicks game though.

Mozgov, Faried and Hickson are Denver's big men. Lopez and Blatche should have a field day.


But they're an excellent three point shooting team. I have no idea how this one will play out.

Definitely expecting a loss although crazier things have happened and we did blow them out at home last year. Would like to see more of Taylor tonight as I believe Livingston would have a tough time keeping Lawson and Robinson in front of him. He has to limit the turnovers and learn how to dribble. He must lead the league in carries.

Offense should run through Brook. Need to box out as I can Faried having a field day on the boards.

Also, please don't leave their 3 point shooters open and **** Nate Robinson

I just don't know with this squad. Maybe we turned over a new leaf after the Grizz win.
Hopefully we have a lineup shakeup.

We need to get more athletic guys in the lineup to match up with this Denver squad. Wouldn't mind see the lineup of

Taylor
AA
Johson
Blatche or Teletovic
Lopez

To start.

I'd prefer KG coming off the bench.

I don't know what to expect with these guys.

When I expect them to at least be able to give an effort, they get blown out. When I expect them to get blown out, they actually try and play the way they should play.

And with all of these injuries, it's even harder to make predictions.

Not having AK out there is a bigger blow than most of us can see because he doesn't really need plays in order to have an impact. He hasn't played in such a long time that you almost forget that he's on the team.

If this team can ever get healthy and if we can stick to a simple gameplan of working inside-out and attacking the paint on offense and having guards fight through picks while our bigs stay parallel to rolling big men on PnRs, things will be much much better.

The only thing that we should be excited about is that Lopez is looking like a flat out stud on both ends.

Brook option 1, Joe #2, everyone else needs to scrap and defend. KG needs to be active and lead.

I say we lose.

We need to just feed Lopez as Mich as possible like in the 4th quarter of the Memphis game.


That should be our strategy against 90% of the league because there are maybe 3 guys who match up with him.

I have a bad feeling that they are going to run us out of the building.

We need to take shots in the paint, Brook and Dre, so they dont get long rebounds off of missed jumpers.

We have the Knicks this week?! I'm already looking ahead to that one, lol.

Can we stop the Nuggets from too many fast breaks? Will Lawson and Faired outrun and jump us? Uggh, not a good feeling about this one.
