THE STIFF LIST (as of 2/7 by Andrew)
STIFF #1: THE FUTURE OF THE NBPA
If the NBA owners opening proposal for the new collective bargaining agreement is any indication, we're heading for a lockout in 2011 and after that, smaller contracts, smaller salaries and less revenue shared with the players.
STIFF #2: THE CLIPPERS
After correctly kicking Mike Dunleavy upstairs and rightly installing Kim Hughes as head coach, why are rumors of Isiah Thomas joining the Clips circling around already?
STIFF #3: THE EASTERN CONFERENCE
Rumors of the re-birth of the Eastern Conference have been greatly exaggerated. Yes, the Cavaliers are awesome but the sixth playoff seed might be sub-.500. And do you think any of the West's top six teams fear the Celtics, Magic or Hawks? No chance.
STIFF #4: ANKLE INJURIES
First Carmelo Anthony. Then Chauncey Billups. And now possibly Arron Afflalo? Tape those ankles up, dammit!
STIFF #5: NEW JERSEY NETS
4-46 and losers to the lowly Pistons on Saturday night. But Lawrence Frank was the problem, right?
DENVER STIFFS T-SHIRTS!

When the highlight of the game is John Elway throwing a tight spiral pass to the Nuggets mascot Rocky, you know you've got a blowout on your hands.

It's too bad the NBA All-Star break doesn't take place a week or two earlier, because the banged up Nuggets are sorely in need of some rest and recuperation right now.

J.R. Smith tweets about needing needing "xray" on sore shoulder.
With injuries piling up ... Smith's shoulder injury is another to add to the list. We'll be monitoring the situation to see if he'll miss any game time. He tweeted saying he hurt the shoulder against the Lakers (presumably when he collided with Sasha Vujacic).

A good loss... (Nuggets/Jazz recap)

The Nuggets may have been careless with the ball, inaccurate with their shots and porous on defense while losing at Utah tonight, but they showed no fear and never gave up. This was a good loss.

Game 51 Preview & Thread: Nuggets at Jazz (7pm MST)

Normally I'd say the Nuggets sans Carmelo Anthony have no shot at winning in Utah on the second of a back-to-back. But if last night's win and the Nuggets previous win in Utah have taught us anything, when this team puts its collective mind towards winning, anything is possible.

Basketball is a great game. Watching Chauncey Billups play basketball is a thing of beauty. Watching the Nuggets smack the Los Angeles Lakers in the mouth along my fellow Denver Stiffs was a delight. Denver’s 126-113 victory left its mark.

10 YEARS OF STIFFDOM: A Decade Retrospective...

Welcome to DenverStiffs.com!
In 1976, the Denver Nuggets were one of four American Basketball Association teams to be absorbed into the National Basketball Association. 33 years later, the Nuggets are the only ABA holdover never to have appeared in an NBA Finals.
In fact, the Nuggets 33-year tenure in the NBA has produced three Western Conference Finals Appearances, five 50-win seasons, 12 first round playoff exits (including five of the last six), 13 seasons in which the team missed the playoffs altogether, and three in which the team didn’t even win 20 games. And our cumulative record? 1266-1440 (a .468 winning percentage).
To quote legendary Nuggets coach Doug Moe, this franchise has been chock full of “stiffs” for over 30 years. And we - the fans - aren’t going to take it without standing up for all the members of Nuggets Nations.
Without any reservations, restrictions or semblance of good taste, this blog speaks up for Nuggets fans everywhere. In return for the hard-earned money we pay for tickets, apparel, food and parking at the Pepsi Center, and so on, all we ask is that our owner, management, coach and players care more about the outcome of each game than we do. For if they don’t, this blog will put them on the STIFF LIST and demand that they either shape up, or ship out.
We welcome comments, feedback and suggestions. Please email us at denverstiffs@gmail.com or ntimmons73@yahoo.com.
Sincerely,
Andrew and Nate
Lifelong Nuggets Fans
