Drew is out. Hughes has a toe injury, but is going to try to play on it. :roll:

Well it didn't take long, Nuggets go on a 16-0 run. Pretty embarrassing effort in the opening quarter(against one of if not the worst defense in the NBA).

It's cool that you use as much logic as most media analysts though.

Larry Hughes sucks . Lebron is in a D league team right now aside from him and Ilgauskas.

You can throw any stat you want at me, stats lie. I've watched enough Nuggets games to know they stink at defense. I don't need ESPN to tell me things. The Cavs passing and shot selection of the first quarter is what I was referring to being embarrassing. The Nuggets comment was just thrown in there. They might not be the worst, but they're FAR from being 5th in the league at it.

It doesn't matter if you think it "looks good".....the bottom line is that they give up the 5th fewest points in the league(per possession). The Nuggets could be horrible on rotations, horrible on closing out, play **** perimeter defense, and **** post defense......but if it isn't resulting in points for the other team, then it doesn't really matter. That is one stat that doesn't lie. And when it's over the course of 50 games, it ain't a fluke either(they were 8th in the league last year, btw).

The Nuggets almost immediately went to zone defense and shut the Cavs down. I'm actually shocked more teams don't do it with Hughes, Newble and Snow on the court. Add in the fact James is not a good outside shooter and it's a struggle to score

But theOUTLAW said that the Cavs are soooooooooooo good against any Western Conference team!!!!!!

Then when you make that post saying that the Cavs are not, theOUTLAW gets all sensitive and then locks your thread, etc, etc, etc.

I am watching this game to see theOUTLAW's points coming into play, I'm waiting for that OH SO AWESOMENESS over the Western Conference!

We have little height and no shooting right now. To be honest, I'm glad we're playing tough teams. It's alot worse to lose to teams that you should beat.
