Maybe they will play D tonight, we need a good 5-7 game winning streak to get back towards the top of the west.

yeah, the loss was really bad because the Jazz lost a game. we could've taken advantage of that but we didn't :noway:

If they score 120, they have to make sure the opponent does not score more than 119.

I know, I know this is obvious, but someone ought to remind them right before the game (George Karl).

If they score 100, they have to make sure......the opponent does not score more than 99 points.

Easy math shows that they shouldn't let an opponent score more than 25 points in any given quarter, and they should make the extra effort to defend against that extra basket just in case the opponent has 98 points going into the final 24 seconds.

This will ensure victory.

still 30 minutes until the tipoff. can't wait to see which nuggets team i'll see today :-D

-the team that doesn't wants to play defense at all...
-the team that wins while it came back from a 24 pt deficit...
-the team that doesn't wants to win...
-the team that doesn't plays at his full strength because it's only facing the bucks...
-the team that wants to prove being better than what he showed yesterday...
-the team that won against boston, san antonio, dallas, new orleans, houston, golden state, orlando and utah already this season?
-or the team that made this 6 game winning streak with always winning by 20+ points

can't decide ^^ we are like a rollercoaster

wow JR smith is playing great basketball again tonight. He is driving it to the hole to get the contact and he is even distributing it folks lol! He's getting alot of playing time tonight especially if we end up blowing the bucks out.

From the trade deadline until now, it has gone pretty much as I expected it to go. When guys get rumored in trades it mess with there ego's. I mean Linas was the main ingredient, he is young, and being thrown everywhere. Eddie loves it here, and he is the main chip. Nene, hate to bash him, but can't defend him anymore either, wants to come back, apparently.


Even with this turn-around tonight we are still backcourt size and depth away from having a chance, imo.

That's what happens when you lose intensity.

It's almost better not to have intensity at all if you're not going to keep it on all game.
