I don't Stojakovic is playing. He is out with back spasms.
This will tell alot about our team. After a tough loss on Monday, we will see how they respond. Maybe they will follow GK's routine and win two out of three :lol:

Actually, didn't Karl say 2 or 3 wins out of the next 5 would be good? Don't think the quote was clear on what the next 5 were, road games, just the next 5. Still, that is shooting for excellence right there.

Knowing the NBA, Nenê will be suspended 30 minutes before game time....just like Kenyon last year.

Is Tyson Chandler playing? I thought they were gonna be taking it easy on him coming back as well

Still no word on Nene's availability :-?

Throw Petro at them Chandler is supposed to be out, so we should be able to get away with it.

We're always so good at NO. I'm confined to my Blackberry all week while out of town, so at least I won't have to witness this live.

And Lol at the Kleiza fine. What a dumbass.

Need to come out stronger than we did against PHO, this is a big game for playoff seeding. With NO shorthanded, Denver needs to pull this one out.

Looks like Nene is gone for tonight. Terrible!

What a **** joke! The league hates the Nuggs, he shouldn't have even been ejected in the first place. I sure hope it's a false report and he plays....

LOL @ Nenê being suspended because the ref started **** with him. This league is pathetic.

NEW YORK -- Denver Nuggets Center-Forward Nenê has been suspended two games without pay for head-butting the Phoenix Suns' Louis Amundson and physically confronting and making contact with a game official after his ejection, it was announced today by Stu Jackson, NBA Executive Vice President, Basketball Operations.

The incident, in which Nenê was assessed a Flagrant Foul Penalty Two and was also ejected, occurred with 7:25 remaining in the fourth period of Denver's 118-115 loss to the Suns at US Airways Center on March 23.

Nenê will begin serving his suspension tonight when the Nuggets visit the New Orleans Hornets at New Orleans Arena.

Two games? You have to be **** kidding me. The league needs to get their **** together with these suspensions and stop being so inconsistent. Zach Randolph got two games for sucker punching Amundson. Nene barely touched him compared to that.

Nene plays for the Nuggets. The league never liked us.

And the ref that started everything gets nothing.

At least they gave the Nuggets two hours to prepare this time, instead of 30 minutes. Very compassionate.

Did Chris Paul get flooping book for Ginobili ? I hate him even more now.
Anyway, we looked good in the 1st quarter, and then they slowed us down like they always do. Gotta score much better in the 3rd qt.

Great win. Defense was great in the second half. Never gave Chris Paul that lane to the paint.

hopefully they play with the same focus/energy against dallas.

Very nice win, but can't fall in love with the jumpshot. This game began with drive after drive.
