well...it's official
The nuggets can NOT sign anybody this season.
We've lost out on just about every free agent out there, from Tyronn Lue to Sam Cassell to Keith Van Horn.
Think management is aware of this disturbing trend?

Re: well...it's official
Lue wasn't going to be a great fit with Iverson and Karl anyway. My best hope for the Nuggets is that they can dig deep for the defensive beast, pass the ball a lot, and feel highly motivated to surprise everyone.

It could happen... they're as good as anybody except LA, so it's not like they're out. They just have to stay focused.

Re: well...it's official
After tonight's game, anything is possible.
They ALL played great D, and when JR SMith plays D, it's a beautiful thing.
Melo was a beast in the paint...I think he's a natural PF in reality. He should spend more time there.

Give the Nuggs some credit. The NBA doesn't care if you are coming off of a back to back or if you have a poor shooting night. The Nuggs have lost several games this year due to not being at their peak...it's time THEY got a break for once.
It just happened to come on a night when everybody was playing good D and working their butts off.

Re: well...it's official
I think the next 3 games will give Denver 2 victories. They'll get one agaisnt he Spurs and they'll beat Utah. Even if they go 1-2 in the next 3 it won't be THAT bad.

I'm hoping for at least the win against utah, that's huge. The nuggets are better (when playing at their best) than every team in the lower half of the west.
Honestly, I think the only teams that could really beat Denver are the top two (SA,LA). After that, the nuggets are at least as good as everybody else.
They're not even much worse than the Spurs, really. If they can get fourth, and SA can hold on to 1st, the nuggets could go all the way to the conference finals.
They need to go at least 1-2 in these next games, then go on a tear.
