NBA PLAYOFFS RND 1: NUGGETS vs. THUNDER - GAME 4

[gombo]

Do you ralize that Gallo is out there with a broken big toe, a twisted ankle and, now, a sore Achille's?
Has to work more? He will work as much as he can, as always.

Ugly loss, unfortunatelly this series will see an end in game 5.

Very good point. Its hard to drive or shoot long jumpers when you have 3 assorted foot/leg injuries. I dont think he would be playing if it wasnt the playoffs.

Its great to see Gallo lead the team with 4 assists but I wish we had more passing from other guys.

[The Rebel]

Lawson passed plenty early, and most of the guys missed their shots, 4 assists being the top for assists is just sad, but also indicative of poor shooting overall.

[Galloisdaman]

I agree that Lawson does pass.

There is 1 guard (not Lawson) who I almost never see pass to Gallo. It is worrisome.

If you are talking about Felton, I never see him to pass to anybody, so I would not worry about it being personal.

Knicks fan here. I hope Gallinari plays tonight like he did on Feburary 25, 2011 against Portland Trailblazers, but you guys win the game:

Go Gallo!

It worked! You guys should post this video in the game 5 thread. And maybe Gallinari will score 18 pts in the 1st and 18 in 2nd half for a total of 36 points in game 5 .

Go Gallo go!

I will take the win, but man that was ugly.

I do credit Lawson, JR, and Gallo for pulling this one out, despite all the desperate efforts of GK to give this away...

He is a horrible playoff coach and makes the dumbest lineup discisions. How can you take JR our at the end when he was on fire, and put Felton back in who was 2-10 at that point, and had been chucking uncontrollably. It would have cost us the game, if Westbrook was not throwing up crazy shots too.

Felton's only saving grace is that he hit 4 free throws at the end.

GK and his mancrushes... First AC, now Felton... so bad

Regardless, GO NUGZ and lets bring this series back to Denver!

felton has looked terrible in the p&r all series. he comes off it....and gets absolutely nothing. they hedge it, he's not aggressive and because of that the pass isn't there. then 8 seconds of dribbling later and that offensive possession is completely crap and someone has to hoist a bad shot. dude needs to take a seat.

i say gallo needs to play a lot of 4 in this next game. make perkins or ibaka cover him....or make scott brooks alter his lineup. we're getting nothing good offensively with nene/kmart/perk/ibaka all in the lane. i think going small benefits our penetration game and offense more than it is a negative on our defense/rebounding. we gotta win 110-105, not 89-86

you'd think chandler would show up to play...being a contract year and all.
there's a lot of guys out there that have gotten huge pay days based off one playoff series. he's going the opposite direction. guess he doesn't like money.

I can't remember the exact time of the game, but on one play he dribbled around, penetrated under the bucket and instead of kicking it out to Harrington, he dribbled it out to him and brought his defender with him. Harrington was doubled teamed because of it at the end of the shot clock and he didn't have a chance. He did something similar to Harrington in the first half, they were trying to run the p&r together out on the arc, but felton wouldn't go with the screen, he wound up hitting Harrington with 3 seconds left on the shot clock, Harrington drove, but missed his layup. Felton is holding the ball to long and not giving the team a chance to run anything because of it.
