DEN Next Game: Apr 14th @ MEM 8pm

updated after games played on 4/12

This is pretty much everything we need to know about our current playoff watch. I will update this and our magic numbers after every game that takes place from either us or LAC or GSW. Also if we start pulling closer to the Lakers i will start to add that. But as for now these are the games we should be watching and are most important to Denver and our playoff situation.

side note: we own the tiebreaker against GSW which is why the # for the playoffs is only 8. The tiebreaker with LAC is even right now that last game between determines who will get the tiebreaker if it comes to a tie

LETS GO NUGGETS!

I think we need to step on the accelerator for this game @ Seattle, I think if we want to say in 7th spot then we have to win this game. Seattle are playing good ball lately and this would be a perfect start for clinching our playoff spot.

Hopefully we can win at the clippers, that would put us in perfect position for the 7th seed.

The thing is that Denver has 4 games before that one, and LAC only has 1, so they can prepare for this like a playoff game.

Melo's Answer · 04-01-2007, 11:39 AM

yah the game against LAC is huge, it would cut 3 games off that magic number for the 7th seed bc of the tiebreaker

The other thing that sucks for us is its the back end of a back to back, we got Dallas at the pepsi center the night be4. So we get to see the reason its so important to beat LAC the night be4 we meet them

melo4life · 04-01-2007, 03:52 PM

That would be huge if we can win both games.

Hey route, thanks for the update, but instead of making new posts, why don't you just edit the original one? It saves space and some of your time.

melo4life · 04-01-2007, 11:11 PM

Man, the next match is going to be a tough game. Iverson on Kobe. What a battle that is going to be. I remember last time these 2 teams played, AI threw and alley oop to Carmelo and he dunked it over Kobe. But Kobe fouled him before the shot. Kobe was not happy.

@ Lakers
Vs Kings
Vs Mavericks
@ CLippers
Vs Lakers
@ Utah
@ New Orleans
@ Memphis
Vs Wolves
@ San Antonio

wow. we need seven to clench(it will probably be four or five), but the ones in bold are the only really likely wins. We should get in the playoffs, but idk about keeping 7th. The team needs to get better quick.

yah thats cool I just didnt want this thread to slip to the bottom and get lost you know, I figured if I kept updating with a new post itd be at top everytime it changes but thats cool I can jus edit the first

**Sliccat** · 04-03-2007, 10:29 PM

Hey route, what's it looking like now?

melo4life · 04-04-2007, 02:13 AM

Los Angeles showdown tomorow. I'm not really sure who we want to win, because if Lakers win, they will move further ahead in 6th, but also keep Clippers down, but if Clippers win, we get closer to 6th place, but Clippers get closer to us. Probably want Lakers to win. I'm pretty confident with tomorow's game at home to the Kings.

Melo's Answer · 04-04-2007, 09:44 AM

Updated after our game against the Lakers, Nuggets keep winnin and those numbers keep coming down.

Also a side note LAL are 1.5 ahead of us in the 6th but they have 2 more wins then us.

For now I wanna keep this about what we control our own destiny for but I will post lil updates about how the Lakers are doing and how far behind we are

**Sliccat** · 04-04-2007, 10:57 AM

If we can beat the Lakers again, we've got the 6th seed on lock. I'm not too sure that's a good thing, but I'm for winning as much as they can, just for confidence and momentum.
