I love how much Larry K played Mo, Redd and Bogut. That should be case EVERY NIGHT. They are young. They can take it. Suns play with 7 player each night. It can be done.

We should use 8 players at most nights with Mo, Redd and Bogut always playing this much.

Don't you just love the way they downplay the win? Yet had we ended up losing by like 30, they'd all be on here bitching.

And since we won, Marcus Camby all of a sudden isn't a force on the inside. :crazy:

This is the same Denver team that blew us out from the opening tip-off out in Denver, people.

This board makes me sick. How some of you can call yourself "fans" is a disgrace.

Its "easy" to put up numbers against Denver because they play at possible the most frantic pace in the league.

And you might want to check the numbers on your "no defense at all"comment, as Denver may give up good shooting percentages, but they also force a lotttttt of turnovers, and in conclusion have one of the better defenses in the league.

Denver ranks 8th in the league in opposing FG% - arguably the most important statistic in evaluating defensive performance. The Nuggets are also first in blocked shots per game.

They have a good defense.

Yep, I have seen defensive rankings that had Denver top 5.

That was a very good team the Bucks beat last night. Sure, the Nuggets self destructed in a lot of ways but you can make an excellent argument that was because of the pressure the Bucks were applying.

That was a quality win for the Bucks without a doubt in my opinion.

It was a good win...and I thoroughly enjoyed it. It just fit the pattern though we've seen the last three seasons where we are able to win a few games against top quality opponents from the West (Lakers, Suns, Denver, Mavericks, Spurs) And because of it, Kohl and we on this board tend to then over-rate the team and certain players.

Yet amazingly we still can't seem to win the season series from teams like the Knicks, Pacers, Nets, Hawks, etc......

Until we start doing that, it is hard to get excited about these other wins.

That's fair. I'm not sitting here going ga ga over this team either. I just think that when they do well we should acknowledge it.
