Nuggets at 76ers: Second half thread...

Denver is trying to start their road-trip with two wins in two nights. Can Denver go 2-2 tonight? Post your second half comments here ... as the Nuggets have an improbable 51-45 lead at the half. Improbable as Denver used a 32-17 push in the second to take the lead! Wowza.The heroes of the first half: Andre Miller, Ty Lawson, Chris Andersen, and Nene.

i hate the Lola wants commercial
No clue what you are talking about...
it seeming is on every commercial break

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0B79RkBxSgU

Sure, but a casual excuse to ogle Sofia Vergara is all I need

So it gets a pass. At least for the first 100 times I see it on TV.

But it has Beckham in it! :p
Fantastic run to end the second quarter

Let’s hope the good guys keep it up.

Shit ya!!!!!!!!!!!

Wowza

What’d I miss.

Andre Miller being good again

Bird not totally sucking. Nene playing great. Gallo and Igudala canceling each other out. Ty looking tired, but still good. Harrington being solid. K2 pulled after a few minutes.

What did I miss?

Awesome comeback from being down 14 points. Now up 6.

all sorts of all around awesomeness
gallo only taking 2 shots
He will be fine. Iggy is a good defender

Gallo hasn’t made any mistakes and he has played good D

Bad pass to Bird!

But was bailed out by a foul call.

Well

I will sum it in Fly Agaric fashion.

“First I was like woah, and the woah, we totally were not winning, then like we totally were just panicked but I was like, naw bro we coo. Then it was like woah, and then like we started winning and I was like woah dude, told ya, eat yo cucumbers and STAY AWAY FROM TACOS”

Dre and Bird

I’m still in the corner of these vets. If the Nuggets are gonna go deep this year, we need them. Bird has a history of playing his best late season and postseason. This year especially because he got lockout lazy.

Dre is +14 so far tonite.

Dre starting the 2nd half
If ever

There was a matchup where small ball will work, it is tonight.

Still.

Nene needs to learn to roll on the PnR
This lineup seems to be the 76ers Slayer.
Oh ye all of little Nuggets faith....I am disappoint...
hey you never said we were going to win

and we never said we were going to lose.

Check. Mate.

Actually look how wrong you are.

I said before the road trip started we would go undefeated. Which means I said we would win all of the games on this road trip. So far I am 1-0.
So uncheck yourself. Because that is Check. and Mated.

We look just as out of sorts as we did to start the game
I think our PGs should be making more FTs than they are

Just harping on the FT% again…

Seems like Denver got the 3pt % taken care of

So, FT% is the next likely target.

Nene looking great.

He needs to continue to play with fire

That’s when the dude makes things happen

76ers blog said the 3rd quarter is their time to shine.

Said that too about the Eagles.

Im hoping they meant the 4rd quarter of the century.
NeBeast!!! Rolling to the hole!!!
Turribad call

Nene was set

So whats for dinner tonight guys?
Same as in first thread
whats for... dessert?
Spaghetti ice(I wish)
I see my sister has some ice cream in the freezer

So, that.

Leftover pizza and salad
Not happy with that sequence

Very frustrating.

4 TO's this quarter :-/
Beast mode-engaged
Nene FT

Can we hope? ….

….

Yes!

We can always hope!
he brought his A game tonight
Nene should crush anyone the 6ers can put against him tonight
Dinner time

hold on Nugs!

ah that was a tasty rib eye
Man, Nene looks good
He really does!
Gallo not getting a lot of points

But, damn, he’s playing some awesome defense.

^this
but why isnt he mixing a little offense in their too

guys a puzzle

I love it

Melo only played D when his offense was clicking, nice to see our new leading scorer do other things when he isn’t scoring during a game.

that's what I was saying
thats nice...

but he should still be a) getting the ball in a good position to score and
b) driving aggressively to the hoop which he hasn’t done once tonight

why don't we feed the beast like this more often?
Because he isn't always the beast?
Not when he is doing finger rolls

instead of dunking. Or bitching to the refs instead of playing defense.

FEED THE BEAST

FEED ME

Because he gets in foul trouble?
because we run out of beast chow?
because he's not sporting the ChiaPoof beast do?
Didn't like that last call
refs heard 6er announcer complaints about foul disparity

Trying their best to even them out

4 fouls now :(
STREAMS!!! FIRST ROW NOT WORKING

anyone?

try oleotv,com
Yea it is....
for me its not working
refresh your page

do you have an adblocker?

i think it is the pleasure of living in Peru :)
but normaly it works
I would just clear your browser cache and try again...

Or climb to the top of Macchu Pichu for better reception :D

first row kinda racist. didnt work for me either- something to do with asia
hehehe what a cliche man
It was a joke
i solve it! made my ip from us
is this game on TV?

I can’t find it anywhere

Bad D there, Gallo
Dre past his funky mood

Back to being a passing artist savant

Maybe he wasn't in a funky mood

maybe he was just in a slump. Correlation is not causation :D)

So glad I have a television to watch on for a change

Streams suck.

Do they?
I'm not keen on rivers, either.
What about creeks?
I've heard he doesn't like brooks either
Aaron? Now there is a qb wothy of your derision.
eh?
Aaron Brooks was a bad qb for the saints a few years back

and I believe he is a cousin of M. Vick

Phillip is a kind of a toad
Mayhaps he just needs a kiss?
He still won't be a prince
Lay off P. Riv there Cat. hehe

we NCSU fans do love him so :)

Never.

I hate the Chargers.

what about koufos?

why is birdman playing instead?

Not sure...K2 didn't start the 2nd half even
Cos he is smaller
In fairness, Bird played a solid 1st half
games change quick but

if I was Philly fan, I’d be really pessimistic

They always are.

Yeah,

You can count on that.

Still. Philly fans >>>> Boston fans.

More like equal.

That travel is on Brewer
holy shit!

pick and roll with gallo. is this an actual offensive set i’m seeing?

One of our best defensive efforts in a quarter so far.

Finish it strong

Offense is looking much crisper this half

except for the TO’s

Bad sequence for Bird there.
Gawd Birdman :p
Bird needs to stay in his cage...
refs completely flipping switch this quarter
Come now, Nuggs...

Back to a 5-pt lead.

Keep your heads in the game. No coasting.

Er, 4 pts.

D’oh!

Need to get back to taking it inside
BIRD MAN!

Would of rejected that two years ago…

I like Doug Collins

and his no bullshit ways

I just tuned in

bird is sucking right now

No loose ball foul?
WTF

K2 is on the bench, why?

Basketball reasons
Too tall

Karl hates size.

Didn’t you get the memo?

He's brainless
I wouldn't go that far

But definitely stubborn.

Aren't you the guy who said the Bronco's wouldn't beat the Steelers
Nene is the game changer here

once he is rested and good to go, we will be fine.

He does well when he plays,

so karl leaves him on the bench

Wizards game has TRAP written all over it
Seems like Bird should've fouled out by now
Refs are...meh. Not gonna get into it
I'm not the sort to complain about officiating

But this is a bit ridiculous.

they got 6ers confused with Thunder
Al! Needed that
Good D at the other end from Al

Nice 3 Corey.

al buckets with a 3
Al freaking Harrington

Good for that guy, man.

Corey freaking Brewer

Good for that guy, too, man.

haha

knicks down 3 to the suns at half. what a joke

WE are not permitted by law

to play defense for the rest of this game
so say the refs

Bird has 5 fouls
Big Greek needs to trot in

Unless GK wants to ride him out through the quarter…

BREWER MAKES ME WANT BEER
Glad you did not say "a" beer
Gah! D is awful with Bird in
refs are now calling us for

a foul a minute

Is it possible we are committing a foul a minute? Come onnnnn

And we can't get a foul call
brewer

is afflalo without a huge contract…and he makes big dunks

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Forgot the commas
Aaa!
Tony Battie was drafted by Dan Issel

Back when Dinosaurs were roaming the earth

The legend of El Busto!!!
Battie the only one not extinct
That 3rd quarter could have been officiated fairer if you got

6er personnel to go do the job

officials kept that quarter close.
so did Bird

for stinking up the joint.

Boxing out is non existent with the nuggets
Koufos with only 7 minutes this game

is fucking criminal

I'd like to see him

With a few minutes to start the fourth.

I’d also like to see the Loch Ness Monster. So….

Jesus

Birdman needs to be put to sleep already. Ick

a bit harsh, even for me
He's not that terrible

I say as he misses two FTs.

Ugh.

That's quite harsh
Let's finish them off!
huge win for us

if it goes down

Is mozzy hurt?

Am I missing something?

Yep

Back

Yes

And yes.

then why is kouf on the bench?

karl makes my brain hurt with his rotations

he's too tall for small ball
Too tall

Karl hates size.

bad back

front aint so good either

Because nobody has mentioned it yet: back issues
based on the comments so far

it appears to be a back injury.

he is a spineless bastard tonight

just kidding, get well soon Moz.

NO WAY DOOD IT WAS TOTALLY FARE!

That is simply terrifying.
I cannot un-see this.
It's better when eyes face only one direction
Flounders agree
And now Bird's not even making FTs

Bah.

Bird fouled out
How dumb is that to bring back Nene when K2 is on the bench
YAY BIRD IS GONE!
may i insist

he should always take a back seat! forget the moz… id rather throw nene back at C and play faried… its funny how weknow this would work but refuse to because nene likes PF

Well Bird is fouled out now....

Faried?

Only after Nene fouls out
Sick ass layup from Brewer
Nice finish, Brew!!
Yeah

That was pretty.

Brewer!

George afraid to use Kouf right now

He’s average so far but give Kouf-a-chance

Maybe my stream is messed up but

aren’t we winning? We were down by 14, yes we could be playing better, but we are winning on the road.

Nope we are actually winning. It's a fact
Whew. I'm glad it was hard to tell

from the thread at least.

The Brew Crew!!

Bird fouling out is the best thing for the Nuggets
Lawson needs to take that shot at the top of the

perimeter more, the defenders know he is going to pump fake a drive.

Nuggets D

Is fantastic.

Best I've seen all year.
No Bird = better D
Yes

Bird makes things hard when he jumps himself out of position all the time.

Blurr for double digits
best freebies ever

brewer and fernand…

Another foul call
Violet palmer

Is awful

absolutely

clueless

^^^^thisthisthisthisthisthisthisthisthisthisthis
Could agree more...
Why is she the only female to ref

in the NBA

I am really hating Violet Palmer with a passion which has rarely been felt by man
If they want to have a woman ref

She’d better be the best ref ever. She’s actually mediocre but people always remember her just cause shes a lady

mediocre would be fine with me if it was a balanced mediocre
Why does she have to be better than the men?

Especially since the NBA doesn’t seem to care if the male refs are the best refs ever either.

Andre!!
Sorry?
Ha

Posted in the wrong place. Anyhow, palmer is the only female ref, so she is the most recognizable

It's a good thing I'm not watching the game live, then.

Frustration with the refs can boil high, but it’s also a dead-end for answers.

The calls are going to happen. The Nuggs can take care of this beyond the ref’s whistle.

bring back the rooster

and actually give him the damn ball

iggy no factor at all so far
funny but pregame notes had

Iggy and Gallo as teams main forces. Both duds tonite.

he's got 4 pts. Gallo has 3.. they cancel out
but iggy took 8 shots to get his 4

gallo took 3 to get 3

Lets really Close It Out

Instead of letting them hang around

aaaaaaannnnndd

it’s a game again

wheres our A team?
I pity the fools.

:(

that's the nuggets right?
The 6ers got physical, and we didn't respond
Brillant Coaching
I haven't seen CombatChuk in a while

Just saying.

hahaha had to get the kids ready for bed

I’M BACK NOW

Now we call a timeout

Fuck this.

if we beat the 6ers on the road by 10

john hollinger is going to throw us a pizza party

ummm...wait til the feed catches up

all I’m sayin

GK called a TO

when we’re up by 1 and not down by 5. i guess i should be grateful

Well at least he did remember he can use them
we went too slow, well luck plays his part again
Well

Nuggets running out of steam isn’t too surprising.

They did play last night.

sigh.

give it to gallo

just sayin

let's settle down boys, we got this
They're pushing us around now, and we're letting them
mllr time

with a side of harrington

Good God, I step away for 5 minutes and CRISIS!

Stop the bleeding, Denver.

Man, that is a foul. Call it the same on both ends!
Come on fellas. Get it going
here we go,

karl panics and goes with small ball

Ok they had their run

Now it’s our turn, I hope

Stopped passing, stopped cutting, stopped driving
corey brewer steal

please

good to see we're finally using our young bigs to... wait WHAT? Koufos is sitting even though Bird fouled out?!?!?!?

OMG OMG OMG OMG OM GOM GOM GOM GOM GOM GOM GOM GOM GOM GOM GOM GOM GOM GOM GOM GOM GOM GOM GOM GOM GOM GOM GOM GOM GOM!

We need to turn "GOM" into a meme, somehow
stands for

GOD ’O MIGHTY!

I think you're making that up.
Maybe it can be for our collective incredulity when GK keeps Koufos (and sure, let's throw in Faried, too) on the bench longer than necessary

Scene:
GK is not playing Koufos or Faried!

Stiffs comments: GOM GOM GOM GOM GOM!

Ugh. Bad time to stop passing and miss shots.

And the whole D thing, too…

[']l;opp/;'-=[];
About time we had a no call go our way
wtf is this shit

jump shot after jump shot after jump shot fuck this

Well we do have the lead again....
Leave it to Lawson to get us some points in the paint.
this is when I wonder why nobody is using the patented Billups method to get fouled - rise up underneath the defender

GO TO THE LINE AND GET SOME POINTS???

It would be called a charge in this game
This is going down to the wire

first one to 100 wins

My God! Call a fucking foul!!!!
I hate to read the ESPN play-by-play when it's "_____ misses layup"

Nene, this time it’s you!

Unbelievable ref is unbelievable
Nuggets can't get no love
Ref's have done a 180
there was a foul going on right there
Not the refs fault

Philly is out playing us right now!

you cant blame the refs for losing a 10 point lead
Not blaming the refs,

just want it called the same at both ends

That doesn't work in the NBA

everyone knows the refs gave calls to the hotter teams.

i'm blaming the refs for the missed calls
at one point does GK say

the next person to take a jump shot gets benched?

hell hath no fury like a violet scorned
Karl spurned Violet

his teams feel her wrath

Really? You really went there?

I am disappoint

COME ON NUGGETS, PULL IT TOGETHER

HOO-RAH HOO-RAH HOO-RAH

Can someone get me a stream? My regular one just booted.
i dont undertand

why nene thinks C isnt his position

same numbers as PF

play center so we can have someone else get PF minutes… ex: faried

This could be a character win

We grind it out despite unfriendly whistle

Gut check time?

Hey Nate did you deliver that letter you wrote
Reffing is bullshit
of course they get a foul
doesnt help im watching the phillys stream
So, the same play at the 6ers end is a foul, and it's clean on our end
Even though this is the 2nd of a b2b, considering how close this game's been (and how far ahead we were), losing this game would be a pretty big disappointment

We have to win these grind-em-out games. Make us believe, Nuggets!

Fucking Dre is clutch
sixers you are not this good

time for a reality check

Refs are disgusting

If the Nuggets win, they did it in SPITE of those god awful refs

CAN WE HOLD ONTO THE BALL

NEVER MIND TRYING TO SCORE

maya starks > philly girl
Dre is a Killa
dang, miller with a 3
im muting these philly announcers
Come on Nuggets hang in there!!!!
These announcers make it seem like it's the playoffs
Andre Miller playing

like he’s possessed

it's a contract year for him....
Sixers are making 'em when it counts.

Denver… is not.

How could there not have been a foul on that play
And! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Miller carrying our limp corpse to victory!
Come on Dre!!!!
miler

trade value UP

Wait, he missed that?
The funny thing is,

that was the lightest foul of the period

How do the sixers get so many calls??

It perplexes me, they are a 1 on 1 team that relies heavily on the refs.
They just take so many jumpshots and they are bailed out so much.
Won’t work against playoff teams lol that aren’t off b2bs/ hated by the refs.

Refs ok; Donaghy doing a fine job

We are gonna grind it out anyway

miller almost with the triple double
Dre wants this game...The rest of the team ????
somebody

HELP DRE WHERES BREWER

remember he scored 50!
Unbelievably easy
So they can set a moving screen all the way down to the top of the key...
milllER

MILLER MILLER

cant wait for my feed to come up

so i can see what happned

a one shot game

bet you we draw contact and there will be no foul call

alright go to scorer time
Nene? Afflalo? Gallo? Dre? Ty?

Dre should take the last shot

I think Dre or Ty
Too bad

we don’t have the money guy for this…

DEFENSE!!!!!!!
bad pick and roll d right there
Do we take it to the buzzer?

Probably gotta give ourselves 4-5 seconds for any putback possibilities…

Andre is the Man!!!!
not yet hes not
We wouldn't be in the game without him
wow wtf was that gallo
this will be interesting

don’t know if i can handle this

who's taking the final shot?
who ever is open
last shot goes to

Miller?

I didn't like the time out

Ty should of pushed the ball up court

Exciting finish

On the road, I’ll take it

OT: wizards beating the thunder
doesnt mean anything if we dont win
haha... Thought way earlier .... wonder if
gallo caught flat footed as ever
so what will Karl draw out this time

another Harrington 40 foot fadeaway?

Whoever can drive the lane and attempt a layup...

Ty or Miller.

Dre!!!!!!!!!!!
Dre!!!!!!!!!!
Dre!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dre!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes!!!!!! but too much time
DRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's Miller Time!

Winning Time!!

The Denver Millers 10 straight points!
That should have been an and 1

God damn it the refs strike again!!

can they play defense

for 7 seconds?

I'm scared now
that's a lot of seconds
MILLER

OMG OMG OMG

I WANT TO HUG HIM

Blatant foul too
that was fucking money!
last sixers shot

goes to evans

DEFENSE

DEFENSE TIME

It's on NBA TV right now
can we hold them off now?
How can we mess this one up on D?
Whatever happens

this game is not on Miller

12 in the 4th for miller?
For fuck's Sake! A foul there????
No fucking way
missed ft un clutch
And he missed it!
Miss it, Iggy! MISS IT!

Noonan!

tacky foul

bull shit

I wasn't gonna blame the refs for a loss earlier,

but now…I’m tempted

ball don't lie
Time management and we have the last shot
Ball don't fucking lie you dumb shit
BALL DON'T FUCKING LIE
Dre's touch is gold...including fouls
OOOOOOHHHHHHH SHHHHIIIIITTTTTTT
Or do we run out the clock and play for OT?
GO FOR DA WIN!!!!!
Hell no!

We’re on the 2nd of a b2b. Win it now.

I feel a lot less nervous

still I hate that fucking call

Dre takes the last shot I'm imagining
omg the dreaded inbound pass coming soon
you had to bring that up

AAA gets this shot!

shud be able to get decent shot
Refs done rigged the game

But ball don’t lie and the Nuggets won’t let the refs cheat

OT

DRE pulled a Gallo

dre pulled a lebron
no

he was at least close

but he did well in the 4th
Honest to GOM are you guys really bagging on Dre???
I thought he was bothered
OT it is....whew.....I feel grateful for OT
Let's play at extra 5!
good thing they choked

still hated that call, stupid call.

Sixers should've won it already (referring to Iggy's missed FT)

New life for Nuggs to atone for mistakes (and hopefully overcome bad reffing).

Missed FTs are part of the game!
I get it, I get it

But with 4 seconds left?

Ball don't lie

Terrible call got him to the stripe. OT is more fair.

4r[']l;opp/;'-=[];
I would like to agree with this comment, but I am unsure
That was the best shot we could have gotten?
i am going to high five every damn person all day

if we win this

Great game

Win or lose, Nuggets show they can hang with the best on the road after a back-to-back.

Good effort from the Nuggets.

Terrible officiating.

lawson should of drove
OT

We must break you
Allen Iverson wants to play

why not get closer to basket before shooting? or at least try to draw a foul by driving?
no way they get a foul call at the end of the game,

unfortunately

Didnt like that shot-- another brilliant Karl TO
Time running out

and they would have probably called him for a charge anyway
/ref’d

Stern Will Make Sure 66ers Win
Or 76ers
Can I turn the tee vee off then?
its reality check time for the sixers
that was awesome dribbling
Love me a blurrr
Nuggs look exhausted particularly Nene
Spoke too soon!
He's pulling a rope-a-dope

It was his birthday.

That was good luck
Ugh.

76ers getting it done.

ugh, bad play there
Strong move Nene
Nene! and no foul??? WTH
the 6ers don't foul, you know that :p
BREWER, BREWER
Come on Nuggs!!! Don't give up!
Loose pass by Ty
back and forth
This is like Rocky!
shit, i missed the whole game up until now!!!

stupid work.

Can't trade points here

NEED A STOP

love that nene is calling for the ball!!
Great shot, AAA

He’s back. Looking great.

There ya go AAA.

Thaddeus Young is torching us

Somebody put a hand in that guy’s face.

Nene is quick big

Aaa finally!!

YES!!!!!! CHARGE!!!!!!!!!!1
violet Palmer making up for the other calls?
This is CRAZY

CRAZY fun!

Well this game looks interesting.
seems like they run plays and we do iso
VIOLET PALMER SWINGS THE MOMENTUM

NUGGETS BALL

Violet Palmer is so bad

Hastings even laughs at a terrible call FOR the Nugs

Hasting knows what's up
Violet giveth....

Violet taketh away

charge!!!!!!!!!!!!
I NEED SOME WATER
Get me a beer while you're up!
You know I thought Nene was set....
He was kinda set,

but he wasn’t in front of the offensive player…at all

Who said he isn’t for the team?

lol the philly announcers are pissed about that charge
and about miller on fire
AHHH

my nba league pass isnt working and everything is going our way? how much we up?

Nuggs up 2 on a Dre Dagger from 20
I NEED SOME WHISKEY
Looks like I picked a bad day to quit sniffing glue.
Is Dre Mad at Philly or does he want to sign there??
Remember.

Who did we trade for Iverson?

holy shit, miller came to play tonite!!!
Dre is large TONIGHT!!!
YES

yYES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES

lmao at how pissed the philly announcers are
Best game of the year
Yes

What a lot of fun.

It’s still against MIA for me.

and I spent most of it looking for streams

with no luck.

I don't get why Evan Turner is mad

The only reason they are in the game is because of the refs.
They should at least realize the other team can get calls even if it is 10% of the time

+1000
Would live to beat Stern and the Philly
but seriously why do we always make their shittiest players look like all stars

its frustrating when players like luke walton score 30 on us

Just had to check in and say

Violet Palmer may be the worst official I’ve ever seen, in any sport.

Clearly you don't watch soccer
I said "sport"

what is this soccer you speak of? :)

Whoa...that's harsh
A sport in which you play with an actual ball and foot
+1000

She only gets shit because she is a woman.

Lots of other bad officials in the NBA. It runneth over with them.

This times a million. So tired of it.
I don't care that she's female,

I care that she’s wildly inconsistent. And I say the same thing about male referees

Whatever

I hate plenty others just as much, I couldn’t name them right now but I couldn’t name Palmer before tonight

Actually I give her shit

because she is so inconsistent. I could care less that she is a woman, either way she is awful.

All these things are true

But to say she is the worst ever is ridiculous. Have you seen Joey Crawford call a game when he’s pissy at a Nugget?

Doesn't get worse than Crawford
Mind

I do think Violet was terrible tonight.

But I still think she gets picked on unnecessarily. I’ve seen her call good games that the Nuggets played.

I agree completely.
Come on Nuggets!!!!!!!
Need points here!

C’mon Boys…

Steal Dre!!!!!
Hilarious ending
Dre thievery!!!
Jrue Holliday gift

more like.

Yes!!! Yes!!!!! bad pass!!!! Miller
YARGH!

So close!

DRE WITH THE STEAL HOLY FUCKING SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Q-24857-120485-10()#&(*^$#%_*&%#)&Q!@*

YeS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AAA Can Ice This
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh sweet Jeebuz

Exhale…

Thank You Holiday!
Whoop... Whoop
+1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Trade Dre for Dwight Howard!!
AAA makes both!!
WOOOOOOOOO...

…HOOOOOOOO!

This just in: The Wizards beat the Thunder
hahahahhaha

SHUT UP!

lmao

the 1-11 wizards? really?

1-12

well 2 wins now

AAA clutch free throws

Iggy, not so much

Balance has been restored.
A. Miller 28 Pts, 8 Reb, 10 Ast, 2 Stl
A. Miller 28 Pts, 8 Reb, 10 Ast, 2 Stl
And I left him on the bench in my fantasy team.

:(

AAA is CLUTCH
maybe from the FT line

not from the 3pt line

Wow fantastic game
Miller

was fantastic tonight.

Glad I never talked shit about him.

I think people overreacted to his words

every player wants to be the starter, especially if you’ve been a starter for 14 years, its not something easy to get used to.

Oh, they totally did

But he did have some bad games after that story came out.

I never got the fact that he showed bad body language, he’s been stoic like that his whole career.

BUT HE HAD TWO BAD GAMES!!!!!!
Clearly he was playing bad on purpose

He Honey Badgered.

Glad I caught the end of that one.
AAA = clutch!
Ha... I was just hoping for 1 of 2
Overcoming adversity!!!
Dre won us This Game!!!

Can We all agree We need his Toughness in the Playoffs!

Poor Philly Announcers

Lost to Denver on a B2b!!

holiday just gave us the ball, not the best way to win
NUGGETS WIN!!!!
best game of the year by a nuggets player andre miller????
Great, great win, Denver

Damn, that was awesome.

Now don’t screw it up by losing vs. Washington on Friday.

CANNON!!!

Look at them moves.

We really are a boy band.

hahaha this was so cute!
i love the brief roboto action from kouf

he’s the man

okay now im allowed to smile all day
Two nights we have knocked off previous undefeated teams at home!
sixers interviews earlier

had them (maybe just Iggy) talking about how they’d be OK going undefeated at home. guess they’ll need a new plan now

Dre almost had a triple double!!!

Best game of his Nuggets career

best game from a nuggets player this year
hahaha

AND NYK losing to PHX… what a fine day in sporting

Now we just need a Blazers loss @ Atlanta
and a Spurs loss to the Magic
yes I'm greedy!

OKC Lost to WAS.

seems like whenever they lose, we win

and vice versa.

Andre Miller

Talks like Richard Pryor

how come moz didnt play?

sorry, just caught the game in ot.

Strained back. Day-to-day, I think.
HUNGOVER.... truth be known
Kidnapped by Russian mafia
They're saving that for the Jersey game silly :p
Stuck his hand inside a snowblower
Zipper got stuck
Somebody left him at the gas station back in Milwaukee
Mission: 5-0 Road Trip

still intact

2-0!!!! WOOT!! WOOT!!!!!!

You called it

I was there.

Anybody get the time?
Nice win

Enjoy the day off and let’s get ready for the Bullets…errr Wizard…on Friday Night!

nuggets win and okc loses to the wizards. great day in basketball
hollingers

goingto be talking us up hard now

I am curious why he was So motivated tonight

He clearly wanted to beat Philly!

he does that to all his former teams
Yeah, he used to do that to us too

They gave him to portland.

he signed as a FA in portland
I read some where

He doesn’t want to be a back up. He doesn’t think he should be coming off the bench

Yeah, we know.

Rest Starters for Melo Game??
lol OKC losing

WIZARDS GAME

x

Uhhhhhh....wat?
It's a crap
Yes I know...and again I posit

WAT?

Just a juvenile response from a middle aged man to another It's a trap pi
After rippin Miller for his crap play last week

gotta give it up to him tonight, they lose this game bad without him.

You know, it's one thing to rip him for his bad play

but so many people were correlating it with his interview about playing time, which annoyed me.

I just don’t see him being that unprofessional to tank it.

It was fair to rip him for the interview

only because he came out and played so poorly after it. But I don’t honestly think that many people thought he was tanking it, the guy needs to play for his next contract! Hopefully this game snapped him out of the funk, cause we need him this year.

But you see,

they equated it with his comments. As though they were related. It was very annoying.

I know

I saw a bit of that during his off streak, I think people were just frustrated. But hopefully we can put this behind us now! Off to the gym, lates.

GREAT GAME! i kinda saw Miller smilling at the end

maybe it was the gum

A Dre Smile sighting??!

First of the year!!

how bout nene?

still played aggressive despite having 4 fouls the whole 4th quarter and OT

Yes

Nene being keyed on at the end opened things up for Miller.

yes definitely liked aggressive Nene

but what was with riding Bird out first? I missed the 1st Q; was K2 awful or something?

Andre just took back the bad games he had with this one!

Nene was fantastic! DRE DRE DRE DRE DRE DRE DRE DRE DRE

OH add this to the Mission Impossible theme

SDNuggefan posted above.

Dre-Dre, Dre-Dre…Dre-Dre, Dre-dre , dunnaaannnn

nene charge call was huge!
im surprised a guy so confident and talented as dre

sees coming off the bench as a bad thing… it’s simply part of the plan— lawson wears them down for dre to dominate

and he gets starters minutes

for his age

Dre Thinks He Deserves to Start

He is playing far better than AAA right now, but AAA has the big contract and is “the future”.

Nene and Dre Came Through!

best game from a nuggets player so far this year
See y'all in the recap thread.

Gotta let the dogs out.

harrington and afflalo

respectable productive shot % and rebounds

Cheers to Andre Miller!
Hip Hip HooDRE!

Hip Hip HooDRE!

Hip Hip HooDRE.... Tre times
Well I wanted to see what kind of reception it got before I continued...
magic just choked at the FT

could have tied the game in OT against the spurs

Damn it why did they lose to the Spurs off a b2b

It’s like losing to the Wizards!!

Did the nuggets just win a game in the half court???????????????????
that shits 's unacceptable

couldn t make it to the tacos

miller on the end of the game he said "yea that was cool" hahahahaha

hes seen it all

doesn't get much better than

beating the #1 team in point differential on the road.

Who Dat? Should be the Nuggets not the (s)Aints!!!!!!
Evil George Karl Beat Evil David Stern!!
Man! Reddick a second too late on a 3 that would have beaten the Spurs.
I was disappointed...
On the plus side

Hawks are workin the Blazers

carmelo having a craptastic game. 3-19 shooting against the suns.
Be that as it may. I would still give him the ball for the last shot....
wow

yes, i guess so

You disagree?
no

right when you said that, Melo hit that 3 that brought the game to a winnable spot for the Knicks

Oh lol I didn't see it
OKC lost to the wizards? are you serious? thats a trap game for the nugs
i dont see how its a trap if they just beat okc???
obviously if they are 2-12...
I thought Milwaukee was our trap game?
i guess every bad team is a trap game?
So it would seem....
well they are 2-12, we just beat 2 good home teams on the road...

we have come out against teams we should beat with little energy

lol 7 points for melo
westbrook put up 36 and they lose??

durant tried to shoot himself out of a 3 point funk and lost it i guess. we’ll play much better D on them I think

Man... dang near three dozen
oooo clear winner for wizards

offensive boards—-19

just got home. my thoughts

1. FUCK YEAH WE WON

2. I can’t fucking believe I missed the 2nd half.

3. Gallo with 3 fg attempts in 33 minutes. wtf?

4. OKC lost to Washington. WTF?

knicks lose
melo and amare a combined 13-44 fg
Ugh... haha
i saw amare talking to nash after the game

wonder if he regrets going to get his own team in NYC and then have melo steal his thunder again

Nash will finish his career with NYC

Watch.

you read the yahoo article?
No

But it’s been whispered in Phoenix. I have some buddies there.

that melo fading right 3

was the definition of clutch

too bad shumpert blew the last play
I really do miss knowing we have that one player that you know will make that last shot....
T'up
+10000000000000000000000000
I don't know what that means....:(
maybe thats why we need JR back
Brewer could take the last shot

But GK won’t give him that chance

im not so sure that he could
You'll never know until he gets the chance
that dre shot at the end of regulation was pretty bad

better than big al’s 33 foot fadeaway against the lake show

He doesn't jump high

GK was riding a hot hand.

i would've liked to see an actual play

not just throw the ball to dre and shoot a jumper, but that’s too much to ask of GK

Its all about riding who has the hot hand

Miller had the hot hand and delivered tonight. So did a lucky missed free throw, but that was a bogus call so it evened out.

melo nice game man! STAT too

what a horrid big 3

i hope they just implode big time
Man, fire drill

(or real emergency, who knows?) at 8 at night with what seems like 40 mph winds is not fun.

That sucks
But a Nuggets win makes it all better?

Amirite?!

If it is a fire...

in this wind. that is not good.

Go check on things. We’ll be here. Be safe.

I live in a dorm.

The fire department came, we’re all good now (which is why I’m here :P). I appreciate it though, definitely good advice. This wind is crazy.

Where are you?
Williams Village of CU Boulder.

My room number, however, you don’t get SD. ;)

Good lord.........

I’m not that much of a cougar :P

I'm sure.

I just figure I don’t usually take as many shots at you as everyone else, gotta pull my weight. :P

Oh well in that case....carry on
But if you were closer to SD....
It's not geographical distance

it’s time differential :D

I'm sad

That I’m too old for cougars now.

It was a fun decade.

do u think its safe to drive

my gf works in boulder and will have to drive home to denver

As long as she doesn't have a high-profile vehicle

Wind is supposed to be brutal tonight and tomorrow.

corolla

she dont finish work till 11. so hopefully the winds die down a bit by then

Wind is supposed to stay crazy into the day tomorrow
hope she's safe

this is freaking out kai

ohhhh wow, u posting

if anything, ill jsut have her stay at work. im ready for u guys to come up!

stoked for the clips game!!!
I know people are out driving

but I can’t tell you whether or not it’s safe enough, which is the important part. From what I hear debris is flying everywhere and signs are falling and stuff.

Obviously I’d assume the type of vehicle matters, but some of the gusts are going to be dangerous.

damn ok.

im gonna head home from work now. hit u guys in the post game

That's terrible!
this is coming together as a perfect sports day

portland losing by 13 in 4th quarter

Down to 8 :(
COMBATCHUK, GET OVER THERE

GO TO BLAZERS EDGE AND SPREAD YOUR ANTI-GOOD LUCK.

Hawks fading. 13-0 run by Blazers. Now tied
Tied up

13-0 run by the Blazers

hahahhaa ON MY WAY
Sooooooo many empy seats in NO

and they are only behind Memphis by2 with 1 min to go

4 now after shot by Mayo
Game wrap is up
is anyone else coming back here?
Seems like the place to be.
haha i thought so
are we really the 5th best team in the west?

can utah keep up the recent resurgence?

I believe we can be better than 5.

Though I don’t mind seeing 4 Northwest teams in the top 8 this early in the year (though I wish they were all behind us). As for Utah, the compressed schedule will cause some surprises. If their young guys continue to play this way they may well make some noise.

i feel like utah will fade

and that dallas will move up. i also think the timberwolves could end up making some surprises

This is entirely probable.

Though I wouldn’t mind seeing all the NW teams in the playoffs (even if ESPN only talked about OKC hehe) would that not be a hoot.

it would be really cool if we got all 5 teams in.

i would imagine it would be a first time since expanding to 30 teams.

also just saw that gary forbes was the raps player of the game

18 pts on .833 shooting, 1 reb, 1 stl, 1 blk, 0 to, in 18 minutes
glad he’s getting some burn. liked that dude

Sometimes it just takes an opportunity.

Good for Forbes.

Did you folks see this

Knicks a losing team with Melo

Fan Shot (hopefully I did it right)
im sure someone will scold you if you didn't
that was a good read.

i didn’t realize the difference in records from post trade was so different

what do you think we should do with dre

i mean he was a stud tonight, and then i read this from bleacher report today…

As the season settles and roles begin to solidify, many an NBA player finds himself unhappy with his lot.

Many accept it and move forward. Some grumble.

Andre Miller is a grumbler.

He recently told Fox Sports he wants to start and doesn’t see himself staying in Denver beyond this season. With the stellar play of All-Star candidate Ty Lawson at point, the Nuggets needn’t wait for Miller to show himself the door.

Expect the Nuggets to link up with a team like the Los Angeles Lakers or New York Knicks—depending on Baron Davis’ health—and move Miller for picks or bench depth.

Andre has been one of my favorite players for years (ask anyone I have played fantasy bball with)

He has times where his shot decision is bad but he is a machine in the half court. But he can also take over a game (see tonight) though not as often as he used to.

‘Dre like to bring the ball up the court more slowly than I like at times but when he decide to push the pace he does it by the long pass where Ty races it up the floor. I don’t know how the run and gun offense that works during the regular season (this year especially) will work in the playoffs and the Nuggets may need him for a change of pace then.

I for one hope he can fit in with the style that I believe can carry us on a deep playoff run but if not, his expiring contract along with the possibility of a Chandler sign and trade in March might bring us a more enticing piece later in the season too.

yeah i know what you mean

i think he’s valuable in the playoffs too, but if he creates too much drama between now and then we should consider trading him. i’m not sure what our biggest need is though. it seems like were way deep at SG and SF… so maybe another PG
