Honestly not that concerned. Again, refs helped the Nuggets to a win. Any team that is allowed 40+ FTs is getting bailed out. Any time.

Raja didn't deserve that 2nd technical (didn't Joey Crawford get fired for something like this?), Amare's tech shouldn't have been one, or they should have given JR Smith 4 techs, Melo 2 etc. The Nuggets were complaining the whole night and didn't get punished for it. Giri's tech DEFINATLY shouldn't have been one (stopping a continuation is deemed inappropriate now?). We outplayed the Nuggets in every aspect of the game except they shot 20 more FT than us. I thought the refs could see push offs and things like that but I guess not.

I'm not as pissed as I am concerned. I was listening to a presentation about gambling and they brought up Donaghy, and I wondered if this could happen again. Tonight it was proven that it could.

And I've also come to realize that Boris Diaw is the single stupidest person in the NBA. I've never seen him make a smart play all season. He's the only player in the league that passes on wide open layups. If we don't trade him during the summer I'm boycotting watching the Suns games next year.

Also, I like how the NBA tries to focus on consistancy, yet when Shaq accidentaly elbowed Diawara in the chin yesterday, he was given a tech, but when Diaw gets hit in the face, its a foul on Diaw?

Diaw committed the foul on Kenyon first and then Kenyon's hand flew back and hit Diaw in the face. Kenyon was given a technical for the hit and Nash made the FT.

Where is the inconsistency?

Cpaw's right, Kenyon got a tech for it. I don't understand the call against Kenyon and Shaq, it makes no sense whatsoever. But that's what the NBA has become, a league of rules that these ****ing refs get to interpret.

Well i saw some of the highlights, we were actually in it til the end which was a good thing.
I'm not to pissed at this loss, as it was a back to back on the road, and we have a coach who refuses to use his bench.
I've been hearing that the nash, raja, diaw, amare, shaq lineup has been working well for us though. Good diaw, stop playing like a *****.

NEW YORK, April 3, 2008 – Denver Nuggets forward Kenyon Martin has received a one game suspension without pay for exceeding the Flagrant Foul points total, it was announced today by Stu Jackson, NBA Executive Vice President, Basketball Operations. Martin was assessed a Flagrant Foul, Penalty One for striking Boris Diaw of the Phoenix Suns in the face.
If a player’s season total exceeds five points, he will receive an automatic suspension following the game in which his point total exceeds five points and for each additional flagrant foul committed during that season.

The incident occurred with 3:52 remaining in the third period of Denver’s 126-120 win over the Suns on Tuesday, April 2 at the Pepsi Center. Martin will serve the suspension on Saturday, April 5 when the Nuggets host the Sacramento Kings at the Pepsi Center.

A ridiculous call could cost Nuggets a playoff spot. This league is hilarious.
