[Melo's Answer]

Kleiza hits a 3 to close the qtr.

Good start to the season offensively with 35 points

Not so good start defensively giving up 31 (although a lot of Seattles points did come against that 2nd unit.)

We really struggled out there with our 2nd unit

35-31 Nuggets after 1

[Melo's Answer]

NENE is in the ball game and is shooting 2 after a nice drive to the bucket.

[Melo's Answer]

Why is this 2nd unit playing so much Wilks Klezia and Najera all in at the same time?

[Melo's Answer]

NENE has forgot how to make a layup apparently

[Melo's Answer]

Karl needs to stop being an idiot and get his starting unit back on the damn floor, I just dont understand most of these player combinations at all

[Melo's Answer]

What do you know! It took Karl til 4:30 left in the half be4 he put the starting unit back in and the Nuggets now have the lead back


and btw K-Mart is playing GREAT!!

[Melo's Answer]

Nuggets up 59-58 at the half

Karl if I see that 2nd unit starting the 2nd half ill kill ya

Denver plays down too much. They just fell asleep in the first half.

Diawara was pretty good today, I'm still not sold on him, but if he can be consistently this good, I don't mind him at 25 mpg. Najera also suprised.

Melo and AI were amazing. 7stls, and melo's shot is just bonkers. If he's getting better at 3pts, watch out.

did you see the lineups Karl was throwing out there for the most part of the 1st half though they were horrible, but we won and as long as we do thats all that matters

They were also the only line-ups available. What did you think was going to happen. That sounds more like a comment on denver's bench than Karl.

Not really, you try to play your starters together for the majority and that didnt happen. The starters played together for prolly the first 4 minutes of the 1st and the last 3 and half of the 2nd. You cant tell me those were the only available lineups. He could of played AI and Melo together more and Im sure we can find different lineups were Klezia isnt our PF. But this only happened in the 1st half, 2nd half made much more sense and thats when Denver took it back over.

Better to stagger AI and Melo than have them both sitting at the same time.
