Watching on TiVo waiting for the game.

Okayyyyy

My wife is googling about the movie

Andre the giant was so hard to understand during filming that Mandy patinkin resorted to slapping him in the face to get him to concentrate. Also patinkin says it is his favorite part he ever played.

That's funny

And during the fight with the ROUS,

There is a random tech person walking around in the trees in the background

don't get me started

LOL

ThrowItDownBigManThrowItDown - February 6, 2012 reply

Unless I am wrong, and I am never wrong

G.k. will play terrible lineups tonight.

prob right

ThrowItDownBigManThrowItDown - February 6, 2012 reply

May I live a thousand years and never hunt again.

If this is untrue.

remember folks

Nuggets 104
Rockets 94

Stone with a trip 10-10-10 and Faried with 8-15… 4 blocks

118-97

Stone 11-10-12
Manimal 12-16-6

You think they'll play that much?

Lots of faith in the coaches…

With an early blowout

I say yes

ThrowItDownBigManThrowItDown - February 6, 2012 reply

To figur out what Karl will do

Just think of a competent coach and subtract reason and accountability.

At the end of the game I will say

“If we had made all our shots, got all the rebounds and scored more points than the other team we would have won this game.”

Taste of victory

Just found out that my ex wife resorted to renting a basement from a poor family, has no job, and is about to call her parents to bail her out. I meanwhile am living a comfortable, worry free life in Peru with enough money to cover my expenses without working until the end of 2012. Funny how cheaters never prosper

Wow

I think that’s good news, boiled down and concentrated.

Can't find a proper link

im going with a filipino link

audio in tagalog, but it doesnt bother me at all

You are such a polyglot!

Gracias

Oops I thought the game started at 6:30 not 7.

I was wondering.

wooooooooooeeeeeey

Dougie Nuggie is fat tonight… is gonna be a good game ladies and gents

No link...

If anyone has one, PLEASE e-mail me at josh.tillis@gmail.com

de nada

You can tell how pissed Dwight Howard is right now

31 of his teams 65 points

Howard

The dude is going to New Jersey

NJ can't trade for him

it’s likely LA, and when that happens I will punch myself in the face.

Who's stepping on Scola's face tonight?

My guess is Big Al

Miller

Yes!!!

Nba LP broadband is using Altitude tv stream… This is a good sign…

L.A_NuggetsFan - February 6, 2012 via mobile reply

L0nk?

Correct me if I'm wrong

but Dwight is clearly more worried about WHERE he plays, then winning a championship. If he really wanted to win numerous championships he should request a trade to our beloved Nuggets

As many of these so called superstars

He wants to play in a big market

Unfortunately so

Coming off a very narrow Mizzou win over @ Oklahoma

Ready for some Nuggets basketball!

College basketball

I really get into it when the conferenc tournaments begin

As a Mizzou fan, this last go around is going to be intense.

Gallo

He goes for 30 tonight

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

STTTOOOOONNNNNNEEEEEEE AND MAAAAAAANNNNNNIIIIIIIIIMMMMMMMMAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLL!!!

I take it

you guys are pumped?

:D

You read my mind! #805 represent!

Settle down, nerd

#freefaried

STFU.

hahahaha jokes!

oh freak it

STTTOOOOONNNNNNEEEEEEE AND MAAAAAAANNNNNNIIIIIIIIIMMMMMMMMAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLL!!!

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

SCRUBBBETTTSSSS!!!!!

Over-under on Faried playing 18 minutes tonight

I'll take the over

wishful thinking

ThrowItDownBigManThrowItDown - February 6, 2012 reply

Under

Let's Go Nuggets!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Last 2 games were thoroughly disgusting

I was disgusted

This is like preseason except it counts

Exactly

I’ll have a hard attack if hamilton gets some run

Good luck people.

Barragan - February 6, 2012 reply

Woot, Manimal.

Can’t wait.

The audio is awesome in Tagalog!

especially living in a Spanish speaking nation!

I'm not a polyglot

but I did go to a SB party yesterday with my Brazilian friend, hosted by her Korean friend and his Filipino friend, attended by another Filipino friend, an Indian from the UK, an Italian woman and 3 white people.

It was awesome

Ugh I gotta watch this on the computer since the Wife is watching a recording of "The Talk"

Can’t wait until my Home Theater room is done next month!

Faried with a foul in first 14 seconds!

Mozgov would be proud

Jeff's favorite player: Kyle Lowry draws the foul

And Faried w/ his first rebound.

UGH I NEED A LINK

firstrow

.eu

KOUF!

KK OK

Well I'm here on stiffs tonight

I didn’t go to the game since I’m sick.
GO NUGGETS!!!!!!!!

Does Julyan have any shooting touch?

Not really lol

ugh my roomate wont stop watching porn so its fucking up my internet streams

KF!

MANIMAL!!!!!

STONE!

random fact of the night:

James Woods has an IQ of 180

To all stiffs

there is so much BS about IQs. I’ve given a thousand tests. There’s no such thing as a 180 and I’ve tested people who performed brilliantly and they maybe hit 130. Hitting 130 means you can do stuff that most of us cant even imagine doing, trust me.

There are more IQ lies than peni-size lies

?? I disagree.

Apparently I’m a ridiculous genius then.

what do you do?

I got a perfect SAT score. How's that stack up in the scheme of things?

Dayum.

Well the SAT is meaningless in the grand scheme of things but very impressive

If I get a scholarship to Stanford it will be worth about $200,000

You must be super rich if that doesn’t mean anything to you.

It's gonna take more than

a perfect SAT to get one.

Like being good at basketball

No kidding but its a damn fine start.

I'm just talking standard IQ test, used by most testers

There are various instruments out there and you cant compare across tests but on THE test you cant even get a 180 and numerous people lie about what they or their son scored on them.

People have no idea what is needed to score a 130 or higher. The equivalent of solving Rubics Cube in 10 seconds, solving complex math problems in your head in 5 seconds, have incredible breadth of knowledge across all fields of study.

To qualify for the scholarship I took the Herrmann Brain Dominance test

I did not take an IQ test so I don’t know what it is like.

Maybe I'm mistaking it for ACT

one of the two always seemed meaningless.

ACT

It’s an easy test.

Idk,

my grades in high school were terrible but my SAT score saved me enough to get me into some decent schools.

I think I mean the ACT then

hell it’s been 4 years, I can’t remember THAT far back…

I think the ACT is the optional one.

Some schools require it but a lot of schools require the SAT and not the ACT so yeah, I think that’s the more useless one.

Yeah I despised the ACT because it was just the school trying to show off(I went to a pretty good HS...which conviently ignored major drug problems)

My GPA is hovering around 4.0 right now.

I calculate a 98% chance of being valedictorian.

You are obviously not the real George Karl then.

Ya, too much humility...

If I outscore the other team

I win!

Nerd(I keed I keed)

anyone got any insight on the new lineup???

Hamilton might have been a better start than Stone,

but team looks energized.

I just dont understand how GK goes from barely giving KF any minutes to starting him??

He had a double double last game

And not many other options…

KF not KK

Oh LOL.

Same idea though. Al and Rudy are those “spark off the bench” guys and we don’t have anyone else to play at PF.

yea definitely talking about faried

Gallo!!!!

Gallo slam!

Kofous!!!1

Sad how much better Stone is than AAA

Yup

hahhahaa

tru dat

K2 blockage!!!

Dalembert is a stiff

Nah, he's pretty serviceable imo.

Not worth the money he’s making though.

Faried can thank Koufos for that

this is fun

Kmart floppage

I'm in

how’s faried looked?

Full of piss and vinegar

drained a jump shot that impressed me

since I didn’t think he had much of a jumpshot

Nice move on the offensive glass, Faried

I like Faried cause he tries to actually rebound

Take notes, other Nuggets. haha

So Pretty, Gallo!

I like how Gallo is being verbal and taking control

One day we'll get those rolls.

Lakers lose to Philly

Hooray!

Luck the Fakers

Stone is taller than Faried isn't he?

No. 2 inches shorter

Stone is crazy tall for a point guard. But him and Faried are close in height for sure

If Gallo finds his 3pt stroke tonight, We'll cruise to victory

aye aye aye gallo

There's something about Faried's rebounding technique

that strikes me as being a bit off. Not sure though. (Maybe it’s good technique and I just don’t recognize it LOL)

He's never relied on technique, afaik.

He’s just such an athletic freak he can get to the boards before anyone else. Once he learns some technique, he’ll be a complete beast.

Yeah, the effort is definitely there

It kinda feels like “undersized rebounding”, and I know that phrase doesn’t make any sense lol.

Lawson!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wowowowow!!!! What a finish, Ty!!!

BLURRRRR!

1!Such amazing body control

Blur'd!!

do not scare me with the shoulder grab!

Koufos

is playing real well.

I think the whole unit is playing really well

Gallo gets a lucky roll or hits the shot he should hit the momentum would have really swung.

Agreed

Hopefully Karl, you know, is taking notes. It really allows our best offensive talent (Gallo & Ty) to operate and get theirs, along with the effort, rebounding and toughness on the other side of the ball. would be a good second unit-type lineup.

So just tuning in the game.

Is Gallo up and about? Looking good?

Active Gallo is a good Gallo

his shot is off

but hes making shit happen

Ty Law takin it to the rack

lawson looks fantastic tonight

penetrating every time down, getting everyone open looks.

Lawson is playing like Martin is Felton

Lakers are very mediocre

And 1 Ty Law

K2 blockage!!!

Koouufff!!

YO KOUF

YOU GOT BLOCKS HUH?

Kouf woof!

Koufas with the BLOCK

GET THAT SHIT OUT OF THERE!!!

/Koufos

koufblok

FINALLY!

My stream switched to the Nuggests game. Hooray!

Holy crap Kouf

Geez

That looked like AC inbounding.

Is it just me or does it look like Gallo has a Black eye?

Kouf really wants to start

Lol! Harrington "All he did was jump and scream"

hahahahhaa

I liked his

“WHAT…sheeeyit.” before that

That was halarious

Kosat Koufus has stolen The Birdman's powers

Highlander style

Al is playing big already

AL seems Pissed

I wonder if J-Ham will sub in for Gallo

Who else is there?

brewa

corey

His dad passed away

He is not playing tonight.

oh

I thought he was back… sad

No Brewer tonight

Dad passed away this morning…

He's not suited up.

His father died, and he’s with his family.

He is taking a leave of absence from basketball.

8 man rotation tonight

Al = Dirk

…

Yeah no.

Dirk > Al

not really this year...

"This Year"

Being the key.

I meant that one shot

We know Dirk is better

Buckets dropping it

Big Al!!

Silky, smooth, Al.

'Dre needs to realize that Lowery is draining it from trey this year, and not leave him completely uncovered

Kyle Lowery

Kind of good at the deep three

mohr Gallo

Who is better? Eli or Peyton?

Gotta say Eli at this point.

Eli

But Peyton’s name will always have an asterisk next too it due to injury.

Nah.

Peyton has better mechanics and overall talent, but he didn’t have the drive Eli has.

He also wasn't drafted by the Colts.

Colts fielded some pretty good teams.

He blew it.

Oh okay. Well I can't argue with that rationale.

Why are you always so snarky?

Eli has done more with less.

Me snarky?

LOL IKNORITE

Quality posts all around.

Don't start

Don’t think Peyton has had the Defense the Giants have.

Agree totally.

Having defensive ends for days kind of helps

Some teams don’t have any, they have 4-6

Indeed

Plus Eli also has Jacobs and Bradshaw.

ELIte also had the defense.

Idk man,

If not for that injury I can’t help but feel that I’d always take Peyton. I mean, it’s Peyton freakin’ Manning.

I agree

I love Peyton

I mostly love him

because I’m a Saints fan and he helped lead us to the ’09 SB (heh) but the guy has always been elite.

This

Peyton is probably better

but it’s a team sport and team success means more, I’d take Tebow over Manning if Tebow had two SB titles. But he doesn’t so the Broncos should take a shot…

What what what?

It was a self explanatory comment

I don't see how any scenario

I would take Tebow over either Manning…

If Tim Tebow led the Broncos to two SB I would take him over Peyton Manning

it’s incredibly theoretical

And I would not

because that’s a really big IF.

IT'S THEORETICAL

my point was Eli does have two(FACT) so I would take him over Peyton right now.

WHY ARE YOU YELLING AT ME?

Can we not argue theoriticals?

GET OFF MY LAWN

LOUD NOISES

YOU GET OFF MY LAWN

exactly my face as well.

WTF?

He’s saying that Eli’s had the better overall team in terms of Defense and Oefense. While Capt. Forehead usually only needs his O-line to get his team to win.

2 SB>1 SB

Eli can thank David tyree for the first

He had to escape the pressure and conclude that drive though

Dayvid tyree

David

There was glue on Tyree’s helmet.

Seriously...

Exactly

David Tyree, known for exactly one thing in his life ever. No offense to him, but that just further demonstrates the way the game is, hard work, talent and dedication PLUS luck.

I’d take Peyton, with Eli in the top 3 right now.

Colt’s gonna have Luck now too.

Peyton

peyton by a mile in regular season

eli in the playoffs. they just have to get there first.

Captain Forehead.

This isnt a serious question is it?

On second thought you're totally right

Why is there a need to compare the two players? Just because they’re brothers? They’re both phenomenal. I would kick them off my roster.

one player is a marquee franchize player for a decade, 4MVPs

one is the 3rd best element on his own team. Receivers are ELITE, Defensive line is close to top, Eli is an 82 rated QB all time, in his best year, this, he is a 92.

He’s good, clutch, smart, a wonderful teammate, and an important part of the team.

But Peyton is an immortal

Kouf tip

Just the tip.

Well, that was ugly, 'Dre

What was that miller

Birdman!!!

BIRDDDDD!

Birdman sighting

we turn the ball over way too much

also, Bird!

Tacos!

What the Fuck dre

Stop doing Southwest commercials George Karl

hahaha

I hear Dragic is doing pretty good in Houston.

He’s the type of cheap PG that I would love to get to replace ’Dre next season.

That's what I've been saying

What about the "cheap" PG we already have?

Stone looks like a very serviceable backup

good point

He's too tall.

He's a serviceable 3rd PG imo.

Stone’s a couple million cheaper but I don’t see him as a reliable 20 mpg PG like Dragic.

Ty is going to be getting more minutes next year

Stone may do

I thought our whole mantra was depth?

Don’t get me wrong, Ty is my favorite player on the team and I think he’d be fine with more minutes, but I think part of our success has been that we’ve stayed pretty healthy this year (along with the depth) and I can easily see Ty getting hurt with the way he plays.

They still have depth all over the place

but there are not a ton of options available, Stone is cheap and they can out money into Ty’s new contract

Maybe I just don't like Stone lol.

not nearly as talented as Dragic. He really needs to work on becoming a threat on offense

Does any Nuggets have an All-star Chance?

I’d guess NeNe has the best possibility

Lawson.

I'm not liking Dre's game right now

He's looking a bit tired

He's looking a bit old

Wait wait wait

You're telling me Dre is old?

Yes!

At least Bird is not nearly as skinny as he was last year

he can sort of clog the lane now.

Still doesn’t excuse him being a turkey now.

Wordplay!

Maybe the extra weight is affecting his play

I wanted to try to make your roll call tonight since I didn't go to the game

But certain peeps are arguing OT and post filling. I’m outta here.

What?

Aw.

It’s still game thread man! Enjoy yourself!

The internet is serious business!!!

Gotta step up your game man

Stop arguing OT

I know Kevin started the whole thing but OMG

U MAD?

Na I'm cool just can't stand the OT during game thread.

I thought Nate said that OT chatter would be deleted.

Not from game threads

There's a reason we get 1,000+ comments per thread lol.

Just part of the atmosphere. We don’t do it to make roll call.

I don't even like the roll call thing.

People get so competitive about it. I’m just gabby.

And has a tendency to commit “errors”

Dude I type fast

Snark.

I KNOW!!!

Making sure.

I must have missed this aspect of this blog

Roll calls?

You don’t want to know….

Welp, see ya later.

Dude it's a GT we always go OT.

I’m not arguing with anyone really.

It's more of a debate.

Like the old saying goes, “Can’t take anything serious in GAME THREAD!”

I have a party

you can poop on.

Why exactly

is altitude sponsored by old chicago style deep dish pizza?

great O foul call

Rudy has his hands up for 10 seconds

And still misses.

Man...if we ever shoot our career averages from three...

Can you imagine how awesome we would be

if we learned to make 3 pointers?

its been one of our major problems this season.

Rudy and Gallo have not performed in this regard consistently enough.

Yep.

Look, I’m a white guy. I learned a looooooong time ago to be awesome from deep. It’s just a requirement, far as I’m concerned.

Vaguely sordid comment here

lol

Haha. Decided to post it anyhow.

I may have had some wine.

hawt

:)

I do what I can.

giggity

was that really necessary?

lol

twss?

so glad the lakers lost

Trade Dre

I want this team to run all the time. He slows us down

I can't decide if you are serious here.

We’d be in deep doo-doo without Dre.

oh i'm very serious

I can't agree with this.

That worked for Mike D’Antoni.

Well it kind of worked.

Depending on your perspective. Might have worked out if some calls had gone their way.

No way

he is too valuable this year

good idea

lets be a really predictable team.

Miller is gonna walk after this year

So ?

So get something for him

But he might get us more by being here

Like a pretty Golden Ball

Most likely

He will, stop important right now, but he isn’t a valuable trade chip. I just don’t know why we want Raymond Felton again coming off the bench. If you don’t learn how to play some sort of half-court game you end up like T.J Ford.

not*

I'm just saying

Who do we get?

Any name I say you will most likely shoot down

Try us.

I don't know cat

I just want Lawson to take over the reigns

Why the hell do you think he’s starting….

I can see he's starting, but I want him to be the only PG out there in crunch time

When they are both out there, Miller is the primary ball handler. I want Lawson to be

Lawson is starting though...

Yeah but I just want 1 PG in crunch time not 2

It seems to me that the trade of Billups opened the doors for Lawson

But picking up Dre was a choice by Karl because he wasn’t entirely confident. Sends a confusing message.

Lawson

I don’t think Karl is sold on him

Karl

I don’t think Lawson is sold on him

touche

I'm in agreement here

I want Lawson to have full reign. Miller should get all these minutes, but this year is weird with the compressed schedule so I’m holding judgment.

I think Lawson is the future

but I’m hellahappy that we have Dre too

Disagree. He loves it here.

I get why Bird was benched for so long.

Lack of acting skills. That commercial is atrocious.

this

gif fail

it was side by side pictures of chandler parsons and that dude who played meadows boyfriend who saw vito spatafore blowing the security guard in season 6

Rockets set great screens.

I wish we could learn to do that

Bird's bringing the energy tonight!

Stop....shooting...3s

I really thought Bird was going to go BLUR on us right there.

What an ugly layup LOL.

Nice Bird!

DA BIRD SOARS

Ruuuddds

Feels like I haven't seen a really quality fastbreak from us in a long time.

Bird is flying tonight!

RUDYYYYYYYY!!!!!

Hastings is a hoot

samdman - February 6, 2012 reply

loves it

Bird realizes he’s about to get Ole Yeller’d.

I really hate that frakking ferret on his face

Bird flying

good for him, better for us

Rotations on D still look slow

Looks like Utah is going to lose to the Knicks. YIPPEE

doesnt really help us we need the clips, san antonio and okc to lose

I don't care if it doesn't help us. I hate the Jazz LOL

lol I'm starting to think you hate every team other than the nugs

False.

I like the Magic.

Why would I like a team that is a pain in our backside like all the time?

I love when Gallo

shoots long 2 pointers and bricks them

Al dunk that shit

Too much Euro influence on this team

Although, he’s become a better dancer though.

Gallo can dunk

LOL

Why we look flat after timeouts?

Come on Bird. Hit your FTs

Houston has some nice young guys whose games I like.

Dragic, Hill, Patterson, Budinger, Flynn (who’s being shopped apparently), etc.

Budinger =

Butters Stoch

here

I love Butters!

I think you can learn a lot about someone from their favorite south park character.

I think my favorite would have to Randy Marsh

Can you believe

I’m going to be fighting at the little league world series???

"WHAT?! WHAT?! THIS IS AMERICA"

lol

I would rather have dragic than flynn

flynn

is atrocious.

Budinger can hit the 3

We could use that.

Still no legs on our jump shots

GALLOOOOOOO!!!!!

GALLO DUNKER

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gjSyRCWgA7c&feature=related

:

THAT'S IT GALLOOOOO

Yay Bird did a good job

Positively

an 08-09 type level of play for him. Awesome!

yup

Hello Gallo

Where did that post-game come from and can I get some more?

GO EURO INFLUENCE!!

We always get called for defensive 3 seconds. At least once every game

Drives me crazy

Well we are playing the passing lanes a lot

So you get called for those more because you aren’t staying in your lane. Its one of the sacrifices of playing small besides sacrificing some offensive rebounds.

Faried?

Faired’s playing?!!

*Faried.

CRAZY TALK!

He started, dude

keep up :)

I just got home and did Karl get future endeavor’d?

No AAA, Moz, Nene, or Brewer

for various reasons…Manimal and Stone both started

2012

It’s happening.

Blur'd

this could and should be about a 20-point lead

I’m scared we haven’t put them away.

Missing 3 of our starters

and a key bench player

Kosta just bumbled the hell out of that ball

ooof.

firstrow tv went away

anyone know where an Alaskan can link up to the game!?

Alaskan4Fat - February 6, 2012 reply

do first row

then .eu

thanks!

Alaskan4Fat - February 6, 2012 reply

Hello everybody!

we are 0-3 when you join the gamethreads

I’ve checked.

better reverse the trend then...

sup

Agree.

probably

my most meaningful post ever.

Rec

Is this what you wanted to post?

of course

hahaha

I can't argue with that.

Gallo should start getting post touches

even when nene comes back

Good news

Chandler’s team has fallen to 9th place

we need another missed layup count

Man...floppy team, but great ball movement from them

Poor call

Okay guys, start scoring

Wish we could.

Kyle Lowry is on fire :(

We should be blowing them out

MANIMAL!!!!!

Hard to believe K2 is 22.

MANIMAL!!

Ty Lawson is not amused by Kosta blowing scoring opportunities.

Ken Faried!

FARIED!!!!

Faried needs to crash more

when we start taking contested 2 point shots. Mainly when its Andre taking the jump shots.

agreed

This Rockets team appears to be the disciplined team that throws Nuggets into a funk.

Its rough to watch.

The Rockets' radio announcer

calls the Nuggets, the Nuggy dugs….

What does this even mean?

not sure, but he's a weird dude

Kosmicki is awesome

Way better than Hastings.

Don't talk trash about SH.

dum de dum de dum

Hastings is ok. Kosmisski or however you spell it is just an awesome game caller. You always know whats going on without having to watch the game.

Scott Hastings=loud

when the Broncos were winning Super Bowls (and we will again :), he was always so loud when he did color with Dave Logan, I think Brian Griese sucks though, it’s too bad Alan Roach can’t always be on KOA, but the NFL loves him too much!
