If they lose we should set the Pepsi Center on fire.

Detroit: 15-40
Robert Swift - Torn meniscus - out for season
Brent Barry - lower leg - out for 3 weeks


A couple changes you might want to update.

No reason to lose this game, Nuggets need to stop the bleeding, and are playing an inferior team with a days rest.

Yeah, except they just signed Bobby Jones, so they have to be considered the favorites coming out of the West now :)

as bad as we've played,we're only 3 games back of homecourt and 6 games out of the #1 seed(highly unlikely).not to mention that the teams around us have been on winning streaks and we're still right there.


I would like to think that at some point that the nuggets will go on a 10 game winning streak.but as long as we hit out groove like last yr to close out the season and avoid the lakers and spurs then it's on and poppin.the rest of these teams don't scare me one bit...to tell the truth i'm hopeing we draw dallas.we'll see though but i'm looking for the nuggets to shut some people up real soon starting with this 5 game stretch from hell!
trust me...i know what the hell i'm talking about!

houston is crazy. they traded Bonzi+mike james for bobby jackson (who's a similar player to what mike is) and sign another guard when their big man falls... this team has big problems right now

kroenke's forking over 85 million a season for this "team" and considering that 25-50% of the arena is empty when we don't play the elite teams...he's not making money off it.

not cool to burn his place down.

that's part of the problem, along with the fact the elite team's fans drown out the nugget's fans when they score a basket...

no wonder this team is only partially motivated

There are plenty of local playground courts if the Pepsi Center is burned down - that seems to fit more the type of basketball the Nuggets want to play anyway.

I'm just hoping to see tons of energy from Camby, Martin and Melo. Camby's due for a monster game.

There's no reason the nuggets don't get this game, if they have any pride left and want to make the playoffs they better start turning on the heat and get a streak going.

Sonics on a back to back after losing to the warriors(i was rooting for them to win Too bad they came up short) should be tired (doesn't matter) so we better go in there and take care of buisness.
