Shandi Finnessey



Shandi likes skinny skiing, snuggling by the campfire, and commitment. Her turnoffs include short tempers, the mafia, and guys with greezy slick back hair.

Haven't heard anything on Melo yet. Hopefully he can go.

[The Answer_CO]

DenverPost will report later tonight.

Hopefully Nene will man up and dunk the ball every once in a while, and not miss every layup he goes for.

Melo questionable.

[MHZ]

Melo's out.

[GuyJones]

how about birdman? It looked like he tweaked his ankle last game, came back in but was still limpin around.

[SirHuey]

I hope Ty will have a great game after being left off the Rookies team

[Rendezvous]

[SirHuey]

terrible start

[KAVK]

Another slow start!

Melo will be missed in this one! hope AA will have another good game of his.

[KAVK]

Nene my man keep at it. Damn he gonna cause some foul troubles for Rick.

J.R: It is time for him to start coming through for us. Ty might be still little sore from that ankle.

[eathy]

Another great win.

This time on the ROAD!

[The Answer_CO]

Great win.

JR played like we need him to play every night.

Go Nuggs! 8 in a row!

[Powder Blue]

Damn solid road win....Props to JR, played very well tonight

What's our record when we enter the fourth quarter trailing? 1-2000 after this game? Man just play, just focus, don't think about record or psychological stuff, and we get the W

For the first time this season, I can finally say J.R. comes to play. His body language is a lot better, he finally plays with a sense of purpose, not treating this like "there're 82 games, it's a long season" anymore.

Great W! Let's sweep this trip.

What's our record when we enter the fourth quarter trailing? 1-2000 after this game?

6-12 this season
8-22 last season

Honestly, as much as everybody acts like JR Smith's body language is important is missing the point. If his shot's falling, it's all good. He takes some bad shots, always has, but when he's hitting shots and making plays going to the basket, everybody's thrilled with him. Too often the shot hasn't been falling this year, and that's the biggest issue with him. Not his body language on the bench. Hopefully this boosts his confidence.

A win on the road! Go team. Let's get Melo back on Friday and continue this in OKC. Chicago came in there and beat the Thunder tonight, but you can bet OKC is going to give the Nuggets everything they have on Friday.

It was a pretty ugly win but ill take it. Horrid 1st quarter i thought we were going to lose fo sho. good job billups for running the team at the end.

what the hell? why would you post such a thing in a game thread on a basketball forum? i did not want to watch someone kill themselves tonight, nor should anyone here. -corona
