| san antonio spurs vs denver nuggets in the first round in the playoffs | | still with their 2004 championship core, the san antonio spurs will try to have another shot at the title this season. working silently but in a deadly way, the spurs have managed to climb up to the standings after the all-star break. of all the teams who made it to this years playoffs, the spurs have the greatest playoff experience. they've got key veterans and good game chemistry. they play balanced offense and defense and could adjust to different playing styles, key ingredients for an nba title. while on the other hand, the allen iverson trade to denver has really worked well. the nuggets are on a run lately coming to the playoffs.can the spurs take the title again? or will AI-melo tandem prove something this time? | |
| | 2007-03-23 Toronto Raptors vs. Denver Nuggets | | The Nuggets seem to be Raptor killers, and that's before they even got Career Raptor Killer, Allen Iverson.They seem to have the Raptors number - on speed dial.
Barring a major difference in turnovers, this game has a 90% chance of being won by the team that rebounds better.These offenses are fairly equal (minus the rebounding), and the Raptors defense is slightly better than the Nuggets defense, but the Nuggets are the best rebounding team in the league.The Raptors will have to learn to grab some boards or shoot the lights out to win this one. I give them a 40% chance of victory.What are your thoughts? | |

| | Get well soon George Karl | | Yesterday night I heard George Karl,the Denver Nuggets coach,has a cancerous growth on his neck! He has to do chemo and alot a radiation in the coming weeks. I hope he does well and doesn't miss alot of time as the Nuggets coach! Karl did battle prostate cancer in 2005 and I'm sure he'll come though just fine with this lastest battle with cancer. | |

| Smith's late free throws lift Nuggets over Warriors | | J.R. Smith's 40-foot 3-pointer attempt helped saved the Nuggets beat the Golden State Warriors. There was 0.4 seconds left on the clock and Smith happens to get fouled when he attempted the 3-pointer. Nuggets were down by 1, so he made the first two free throws and then bricked the last one. This win snapped the Nuggets two game losing streak. Unfortunately Ty Lawson got hurt during the game and did not return. It seems that all of the Denver Nuggets players are getting hurt, this is not a good sign. But I am glad that the Nuggets' secondary is stepping up to the plate!!! | |
| | Without 'Melo, Billups, Nuggets stop Jazz, end road skid | | The Denver Nuggets snapped their 3 game winning streak tonight without 2 of their superstars! I think this is a very good look because the bench has really stepped up. We might be able to make it to the Western Conference finals if we still keep playing this well!!!! | |

| Carmelo Anthony 2009 MVP or Not a Shot? | | Many sports analysts have said Carmelo Anthony will be this season's NBA MVP. What do you think about this? No doubt he is off to a very impressive start, but can he keep it up, or will he start to decline at some point in the season? 30+ points per game for 'Melo' seems like a lot to me. Will LeBron James, Kobe Bryant or Dwayne Wade take the 2009 MVP award? | |
| | Which team will be the NBA champion 2009/2010?? | | ..This is an excited game that i never miss.. I personally like Magic & Lakers team..
I love to watch Fisher, Kobe, Gasol & Odom from Lakers. They are great & have team work. The coach of Lakers team, Philip Jackson also a great coach.. He already has had win ten times champion. I believe he sure can break record.. He is steady, patient & know well all the players strength. I am sad Gasol can not participate this time due to injured during practice. There is a tacit agreement between him & Kobe.. What a Imperfection!! Although Fisher already considered aged in the game but he is experience & professional. Kobe & Odom are genius. Kobe's movement & skill always surprising spectator. I hope Lakers can maintain & be the 2009/2010 champion. May god bless them.. | |
