The Nuggets will be a top 3 team in the West. All we can hope for are some major injuries.

Give us one that counts. Melo would be nice

And just on Rudy Fernandez, I've heard and seen nothing but good things from the boy. Quality. At this stage, I'm happy if we draft him with the Denver pick.

The problem the Nuggs will have is executing their offence in crunch time. Who is their go-to guy down the stretch? It can't be KMart, Camby, Miller, Lenard or Boykins. And I don't know if Melo can be that guy yet.

They will have to build solid 4th Q leads and win that way. And they will probably do that a lot.

The Nene injury, if serious, takes away their ability to make a big trade in season. They can't even trade a first round pick since they owe us one.

If KMart or Camby goes down they are dead.

Benis007

Hasn't played a full season since coming to the NBA.

You can count on the Cambyman going down at some point this season. And with Nene injured after game 1 for who knows how long.. they aren't looking so hot anymore.

On the other hand, I heard that Melo has dropped like 20lbs so he can run the court better.

I heard Kenyon was having a little problem with his repaired knee?

Losing Nene is a significant loss. I don't know how long he'll be gone for I was expecting a true breakout season from him.

I think they open the season 0-2.

They might get that third seed but I really doubt they'll have a top 3 record in the West.

Nene - Torn ACL , out for the season.(fan 590 radio)

speedythief

Schadenfreude, everyone. Before you celebrate Nene's misfortune remember that an injury can happen to anyone, including to someone important on our team. Knock on wood.

ColinBeehler

i saw a guy on my highschool basketball team tear his acl for the second time...

he tore it the first time in gr 11 while playing for the junior team at highschool (he played down because of a late birthday)... then he had surgery before his gr 12 yr, and couldnt play that year. and in the warm-ups of his first senior season game, in his last possible year to play basketball. he landed funny on his knee, and tore his acl... did it all by himself no one tripped him or anything... poor dave was a basketball guru, a gr.9/10/11 phenom.. and he never got to play a single senior game.

honestly the saddest moment i'v ever seen live in sports.
