PrintHere's what others are saying about our Denver Nuggets...
The Denver Post's Dave Krieger advocates for Nuggets head coach George Karl to get a contract extension now, and plugs Denver Stiffs along the way. Thanks, Dave!
ESPN.com's Marc Stein drops the Nuggets to 8th in his power rankings, notably behind Phoenix who we beat last week and can't win a road game. Really, Marc? Worse than Phoenix? I don't think we're watching the same basketball.
The Post's Benjamin Hochman notes that rookie Ty Lawson has sparkled "in spurts" but still has much room to improve. After seeing Lawson start yesterday, I'm sure we all agree.
Aaron Lopez - formerly of the Rocky Mountain News - is now covering the Nuggets for the team itself, with "The Nuggets Beat" column at nuggets.com. Lopez, along with Chris Tomasson, did a great job covering the team for the Rocky so its nice to see him resurface with a cool gig.
In his latest NBA chat, Hoopsworld's Travis Heath suggests that the Nuggets go after the Blazers Joel Pryzbilla and explains that the Wizards Brendan Haywood is another "big" the Nuggets could consider going after. No mention however of my boy: Jeff Foster!

power rankings
The Nuggets are 7-8 on the road, the Suns are 8-9 on the road. Sorry to say, I think #8 is about right for the Nuggets at this point.

Rockets at #9
Wow who would have taken that bet, sitting at 9 ahead of Portland, the Jazz, and Spurs. No way Phoenix deserves a spot over the Nuggets, and despite the up and down play no way the Mavericks do either. Look fwd to things coming correct, and the Rockets staying right where they are.

Phoenix
They are a half game back and perfect at home, looking at their record they are beating most bad teams and losing to good ones, opposite of the Nugs. Both “can’t win on the road” and it;s at best a toss up, I’ll give the edge to the team with a coach who cares about winning.
Hadn't read this before ... thanks for the link.

Pryzbilla
Why would the blazers get rid of him with Oden down?
Seems like a pretty outlandish suggestion. Word is that Gortat wants to move. I’m still a fan of his size and limited skill set.
+1
Talk about a stupid suggestion. Why the hell would the Blazers trade thier starting C to their division rivals? Especially considering how close the 2 teams are and how injured Oden always is. Seriously blows my mind to think that a guy who has a job as a professional sports writer would suggest that.

Would be nice to see him in a Nugget uniform, but agree…not happening!
