No excuse for losing this game. The time to screw around and lose to subpar teams on the road is over. The Nuggets have too many good teams on the road and b2b's to be giving away games against bad teams.

That being said, the Nuggets seem to always get trapped into playing Warriors style basketball whenever they play them. Often times the games are too close. That's got to stop tonight. No career nights for Corey freaking Maggette.

Better decision making is the key to this game. Really, to any game, but especially to a helter-skelter type team. Be careful to avoid injury by not doing stupid plays, but don't be afraid to take it strong to the rim.

One of the worst games the Nuggets have played this season.

Playing down to the competition is an excuse for losing.

Monta Ellis is as dumb as they come. Also, watching Maggette jump out of his way to get fouls and actually getting them is pretty embarrassing for the league. A ton of guys flop, but you have to do it halfway intelligently, in the context of the shot attempt. He doesn't even try.

What a pathetic game thus far. They better find a way to pull this out.

This game doesn't help with Nene/KMart choking at the line and not rebounding.

wow can someone please go after defensive rebounds?

eathy · Post #15 » by **eathy** » Thu Jan 21, 2010 6:07 am

Melo clearly stripped the ball there... WTF?

SirHuey · Post #16 » by **SirHuey** » Thu Jan 21, 2010 6:12 am

those Warriors announcers annoyin me

SirHuey · Post #17 » by **SirHuey** » Thu Jan 21, 2010 6:32 am

Melo has been forcing it up way too much, Billups and JR stepped up big..not a great win but ill take it

eathy · Post #18 » by **eathy** » Thu Jan 21, 2010 6:33 am

phew.

Billups and JR took Melo's clutchness and split it between themselves.

Please make FTs nxt time.

Chauncey won it for us tonight. Nene did decent. Melo absolutely sucked, he needs to rebound vs Clippers tomorrow.

The refs were awful tonight.

Just looked at the boxscores.

37/8/8 for Chauncey
