THE STIFF LIST (as of 11/20 by Andrew)
STIFF #1: THE NEW JERSEY NETS
The bad get worse. Starting out 0-12, these Nets are doing a great imitation of the 1997-98, 11-win Nuggets. I might have to pay someone to take my Nets tickets when they come to Pepsi Center.
STIFF #2: ALLEN IVERSON
I hate to kick one of my favorite players while he's down, but when even the Knicks won't sign you, you belong on the Stiff List.
STIFF #3: THE SAN ANTONIO SPURS
Richard Jefferson? Antonio McDyess? DeJuan Blair? A healthy Manu Ginobili? Big deal. What idiot thought these guys would be neck-and-neck with the Lakers and way better than the Nuggets? (Oh wait, that would be me.)
STIFF #4: TRACY MCGRADY
After years of suspect handling of his injuries making it virtually impossible for the Rockets to trade him, McGrady goes head-to-head with Rockets coach Rick Adelman demanding to know what his "future" with the organization is. Tracy, take your league-high $23.2 million and shut the @#$% up.
STIFF #5: DAVID KAHN
Defiant and stubborn as ever, the Timberwolves "president" defended his offseason moves (you know, drafting two point guards before Brandon Jennings not named Brandon Jennings) by proclaiming that the Wolves will be active during next summer's free agent market. I just pray that Wolves owner Glen Taylor never fires this guy so the Nuggets have four guaranteed wins each season.

This loss raises a few red flags... (Nuggets/Clippers recap)
by Andrew Feinstein on Nov 21, 2009 1:11 AM MST
in Game Recaps
24 comments
LOS ANGELES - Simply put, last season we didn't lose games like this. It just didn't happen. And thus, what will hopefully be a just brief aberration in the middle of an otherwise great season raises several red flags.

Part 1 featured my formal interview with our team's coach and Part 2 details the next two days thereafter. Part 3 - coming this weekend - will be my analysis.

Game 11 Preview & Thread: Raptors at Nuggets (7pm MDT)

Coming off a big win against the Los Angeles Lakers, it's time for the Nuggets to respond by taking care of a 5-5 Toronto Raptors team. Beating a high scoring team featuring Chris Bosh and Hedo Turkoglu isn't going to be easy.

This is the first of a three-part series chronicling the time I spent last week with Nuggets head coach George Karl and following the team from Chicago to Milwaukee. Part 1 follows my first day with Karl and the team, and the formal interview I conducted on Monday after Nuggets practice. Note that I'm just recapping what happened, and not doing much analysis (that will come later in Part 3).

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
