Tracy McGrady channels Tracy McGrady. Rockets win...

by Andrew Feinstein on Mar 2, 2008 8:37 PM MST Comment 5 comments

The Nuggets never had a chance against the Houston Rockets tonight, and now I'm just heartsick when I think about our playoff chances fading quicker by the day. I guess they figured they'll make up the game-and-a-half that we now find ourselves behind the Golden State Warriors during the week ahead...ugh.

Meanwhile, I've resorted to rooting for other teams to lose so my beloved Nuggets can squeak into the playoffs. My dark horse team to drop out of the West's top 8 (and thus, give the Nuggets a chance) is the Phoenix Suns, who we play on Wednesday. While I was 100% in favor of the Shaq trade, it hasn't exactly panned out.

I read the Nugg Doctor earlier and he had a interesting take on the Nuggets playoff picture. He thinks our best shot of make it would be to overtake Utah and win the Northwest division. I don't know that is possible, but we still have two games left against the Jazz.

SnakefromHell checks in, if a coach uses a zone defense against a three point shooting team like this, maybe he should find another job. Since Karl is so good at criticizing young player in the media, maybe he should be an American Idol judge.

i'm still having nightmares of Shane Battier wide open in the corner...

And Kenyon Martin is becoming way to predictable on the post...i can tell when he's going to shoot, just by how he acts as soon as he catches the ball...(hint: he's going to shoot pretty much every time he touches the ball).

I'm glad that Karl decided against the Ron Artest trade, so at least the next coach will still have some youth on the team...maybe they should tank and try and get Eric Gordon or Deric Rose in the draft...although the nuggets front office would probably try and trade the pick.

Any squad or coach that allows 41 yr old Mutombo to do his infamous finger wagg multiple times in a game should endure the most suffrable death possible...Butt Nuggets sux, and make sure your sub-par team stays out of the way of the Gorgeous, winning Lake Show...

THE STIFF LIST (as of 3/8 by Andrew)

STIFF #1: K-MART'S LEFT KNEE
Best-case scenario, K-Mart misses another week or two with a sore knee. Worst-case, he's done for the season with knee surgery.

STIFF #2: RON ARTEST
Nice hairdo. 'Nuff said.

STIFF #3: JOEL PRYZBILLA
The Blazers backup center re-injured his surgically repaired right knee after slipping in the shower. Now we're just waiting for Greg Oden to slip on a banana peel.

STIFF #4: CAVALIERS FANS
Recently set the world record for the largest gathering of people wearing fleece blankets - i.e. Snuggies. Really?! This is worthy of a world record?!

STIFF #5: BOSTON CELTICS
Losing to the pathetic Nets and almost losing to the Wizards is one thing. But to do so at home within a week of each other...now that's an art. I think it's safe to assume the Celtics are going nowhere in this year's playoffs.
