Nuggets at Clippers 

Post#1 » by The Rebel » Sun Dec 22, 2013 3:52 am

on Altitude and NBA TV.

Hickson is fouling as his defense, FAried is already in the lockerroom for injury, and the Nuggets are down 7. In other words typical Nuggets start.

Shaw really needs to change his lineup and rotations.

Foye, Hickson, Miller need a big reduction in their roles.

Foye is most likely our worst starter since Anthony Carter.

Way to end the half.

Am I the only one that is tired of Marlowe hyping up how great Randolph is and going on and on about every good play he makes while ignoring the 2 or 3 screw ups in between those good plays?

Also why is Fournier basically benched due to his defense and shooting while Foye, Hickson, and randolph keep getting minutes? I personally am hoping they are playing them to showcase them for a trade, but I am probably wrong.

One other thing I have noticed over the last few games, every since Robinson complained about the refs and got fined, it seems like the Nuggets are not getting many calls.

Watching the 4th quarter I really cannot figure out what happened to Fournier, he seems to work hard on defense, but he does not even touch the ball much on offense, and when he does he seems to hesitate and not know what he wants to do.

Q. Miller looked good in that 4th quarter, maybe good enough to steal Randolph's minutes I hope, as they both make mistakes on offense by trying to do to much, but Miller is at least a solid defender.

He's a slasher by nature but Shaw wants him shooting from 3 more.

Just looking at Randolph's face made me want to vomit .....his expressions are way too panicky to maintain any sort of serious defense. I like that he moves around a lot, and I hate where he ends up. Lol.

Is it just me or when we were one step away from the Afflalo non-Melo team, we were okay......now that we've taken two or three steps away from that core it feels like we're on thin ice.....

All I'm saying is we do need to move in the direction we want to be, because this current manifestation of the Nuggets almost feels like '02.

Not safe to stay put. Must begin moving in direction of final permutation.

Get rid of Foye, I think I'd consider that an early Xmas present. Just feel like the Timberwolves from a couple of years ago.
