I predicted that the Nuggets would lose to the Mavs, but I'm not to sure of that right now. However I hope for a great game of basketball on both ends of the court. Mavs and Nuggets fans you are all welcomed to add insight in to this up coming game, and make predictions if you like.

Let's go Nuggets!

I hope everyone has NBA.TV this should be a really good game. Also if anyone finds out K-Marts status before the game please let me know.

It's almost time for Nuggets basketball. :banana:

 

[NugzFan]

a win would be nice. we suck on the road so far. a chance to get back to .500 but we have never fared well in dallas. this game could get ugly - quick.

 

[Kuskid]

I've got League Pass, but not NBATV. So I believe this is the one instance where a game's on that I won'tbe able to watch. :verysad: :upset:

 

[RoddneyThaRippa]

Unbelievable. How do we find ways to lose games like this?

 

[RoddneyThaRippa]

What a ****ty way to lose. We had a 19 point lead. How the hell do you give that up? There are so many things wrong with this team right now I don't even know where to start. This is getting really, really old.

 

[girllovesthegame]

I see Martin only played 8 minutes. What's the status on him?

 

[VeN]

Guys, yall arent the first. We won a double ot over Phx the other night. GO DALLAS. Wish I couldve seen the game though

 

[melo4mvp]

we didnt play too bad i think, and we have finally realised that dermarr johnson should be starting at SG
i think we are on the right track

oh by the way, nice job with the game thread jordan, excellent

 

[77AJ]

Oh the pain is still lingering inside of me after this loss against the Mavs. This was a game the Nuggets should of won, and if not by a lot at least been able to hold on to the win down the stretch. The 4th quarter was a nightmare. How can the Nuggets expect to win if we can't even make a shot in the last 3-5 minutes of a game. We had so many opportunities to win this game. ERR I'm so upset over this game right now. :curse: :curse:

The following quote is from NBA.com re-cap regarding Anthonys last shot.

http://www.nba.com/games/20051115/DENDAL/recap.html

With Daniels, Nowitzki and Diop converging on Anthony, Nuggets coach George Karl wanted the ball passed to an open teammate.

"He's not going to get that call on the road," Karl said. "Carmelo has to understand that if they play him 1-on-1, we want him to shoot the ball. If they play him with three, then we want him to pass the ball. That's my responsibility to teach him."

That's a bummer. I have league pass as well, but I also have NBA TV. You should get DIRECTV thats what I have.

Good question Rodney I would like to know the answer as well. The Nuggets are silpping right now.

Thanks for the nod of appreciation regarding the thread melo4mvp. I been working on making the game threads in here better so we can all have a good game thread to post in. :cheers:

How about the intense play of Francisco Elson last night? That stripping of Dirk and the following dunk were sweet! Can't believe that didn't make ESPN's top 10.

There's no reason for our team to lose after a 19 point lead. There just isn't.

Karl needs to swallow his pride and play deeper into our bench earlier in the game so our regulars won't be so winded down the stretch...oh yeah, and Carmelo needs to pass the rock when he's double teamed. Everybody knew it was going to him for the final shot, but there was NO MOVEMENT from the backside when he got triple teamed.

That' basketball 101. He needs to go down low early, get the double team, kick out and swing the rock for the open man.

I love this team, but htey keep breaking my heart in these nail biters.
