A game winning block and a block on Lebron to start, I like the it.

Gary Harris' stasche still makes me realize why I didn't want to draft him.

Should be a much better litmus test of life without Lance, although Denver hasn't been a model of consistency themselves either.

Hopefully a blowout win, I never got over Shaw crapping all over our organization.

bold prediction - we play well, build a 15 point lead w/ about 3 minutes left in the 3rd quarter. then the nuggets will close the lead down to about 9 points with about 8 minutes left in the 4th as an exhausted gary neal tries to play 1 v 5. clifford will panic and pull zeller and biyombo from the game and insert jefferson and williams. denver will then proceed to make jefferson defend the pick and roll which will eventually lead to 5 straight wide open corner 3s for afflalo (or whoever is red hot at the time). meanwhile on offense, denver will trap kemba forcing the ball out of his hands. they will double jefferson denying him the ball and MKG will stand unguarded in the shame corner. denver will eventually win by 3.

Sounds like our season summed up in a nutshell.

I see optimism has reached a new peak around here

Something eerily similar to this summarized bold prediction has happened in just about every loss we've had this season.

I have no doubt MKG will add a corner 3 to his arsenal this coming offseason, it's too bad we'll have to wait another year though.

in his and the bench's defense, they have been playing damn well on offense as of late.

but I'm sure you can come up with about ten different ways how they would lose 6 or 7 points off our lead during that stretch.

I we win this game I think we will have officially turned the corner. Regardless though, I still think we'll finish at least a few games above .500 and make the playoffs. And with the East as weak as it is that is a good thing in my opinion. If we're playing as well as we were late in the season last year I like our chances against everyone except the Bulls.

I actually felt really sad reading this, as I imagined it in my head. Seems spot on, maybe that's why it hurts so badly :cry:
