I play basketball every Wednesday night, so I had to record last night's game against the lowly, toothless, colluding-with-the-Lakers Memphis Grizzlies, and watch it about two hours after it was over. I figured the Nuggets won, however, because I didn't have any text messages or missed calls from my friends (or maybe it's because I have no friends left since launching this blog).
Whenever the Nuggets play a sub-.500 team and win (as they should), my cell phone is totally silent throughout the game. However, when the Nuggets lose to sub-.500 teams like the Bucks game a few weeks ago (that was the final straw for me to launch this blog), or barely beat sub-.500 teams like the Clippers game at home last week, my phone doesn't stop buzzing.
For those who think a 16-1 record at home against sub-.500 teams is impressive, consider that the teams we're in theory capable of catching for a playoff spot - Utah (14-0), Phoenix (14-2), Dallas (14-1) and Golden State (13-2) - all have terrific records against bad teams at home, too. But at this point, I'll take a silent phone and a Nuggets win any way we can get one!

This column sort of falls under the "Captian Obvious" category don't you think. Of course the teams we're looking up at have good records against the poor teams, or they wouldn't probably have good records.
This isn't a diss though... Although I've become an addit to your blog here, you don't have to feel like you need to post something for us each day. But I'll gladly take it! Thanks for keeping hope alive on the daily basis!
when they started the game by falling behind 10-0 I got a little worried...they better not take Toronto lightly tonight.
