Denver Nuggets at Cleveland Cavaliers, Feb 18, 2010 6:00 PM MST
Nuggets fans won't have to wait long to see how the team responds to the sad news that head coach George Karl has been diagnosed with cancer again. Considering the circumstances, playing at Cleveland in a nationally televised game just two days after Karl's shocking revelation might be the team's biggest test of the season thus far.
When we last saw the Cavaliers, the Carmelo Anthony-less Nuggets eeked out a thrilling 99-97 early January victory at Pepsi Center while yours truly got his 15 minutes of fame in one ESPN broadcast. As we well remember, the Nuggets were red hot in January, winning 12 of their 15 games.
So far, the hot streak hasn't extended into February with the Nuggets playing .500 ball. But the competition has gotten much tougher. With the exception of playing the lowly Sacramento Kings to kick off February, the Nuggets have faced all playoff caliber foes and in each game, the Nuggets have been shorthanded with either Melo, Chauncey Billups or Kenyon Martin missing action in those six contests.
In keeping with that theme of tough competition, the Nuggets begin the unofficial "second half" of the NBA season by having to play on the road against the NBA's hottest and premier team: the Cavaliers. Since losing at Denver on January 8th, the boys in "red wine and gold" have lost just once. Once! (to quote Joe Piscopo from "Johnny Dangerously", one of my all-time favorite 80s comedies.) If you're scoring at home, that means the Cavs are winners of 15 of 16, while currently riding a 13-game winning streak. And just like last season, the Cavs are virtually unbeatable at home where they've lost just three times all season, two of which came in the first week as they were figuring out how to play with Shaquille O'Neal on board.
Throw in the newly acquired, recent All-Star Antawn Jamison (even though he plays the same position at LeBron James, so I'm a little suspect about how this will work out) and the Cavaliers - in theory - are marching all the way to the NBA Finals.
So, if the challenge wasn't great enough as-is, enter Karl's revelation that he has been diagnosed with cancer for the second time in his life. The Nuggets players shouldn't (and don't) need Karl's situation to get up emotionally for a big game like this. But if there's a silver lining, it's possible that the Nuggets players will have an extra morsel of energy and fight in them down the home stretch of the season as they're suddenly playing for more than a title. They'll be playing to make their coach, who has put them in the best possible position to succeed with or without him on the bench, proud.
Fortunately for the Nuggets players and fans, Karl will be on the bench Thursday night in Cleveland, one of his former stomping grounds as an NBA coach (see photo above). Right off the bat this sends an inspiring message to the team: I might be down, but I'm not out and I'm going to fight this thing to the bitter end.
The least the players can do is play basketball with that same mantra and I expect nothing less of this squad, a collection of players who have shown - if anything - a remarkable resilience to succeed in the face of great adversity in their own lives. Whether its Chauncey Billups who was left for dead by five NBA franchises (including ours) before finding his place in NBA lore and may end up in the Hall of Fame. Or Kenyon Martin who has battled back admirably from two devastating knee surgeries to become the best defensive (and not a bad offensive) player on the team. Or Carmelo Anthony who seems to be making the right choices after making so many bad ones that many in Nuggets Nation once wanted him traded. Or J.R. Smith who knows first-hand what the death of a close friend feels like and the burden the goes along with that. Or Arron Afflalo who has never been given a chance to succeed in the NBA until now and is making the most of it. Or Nene who himself knows a thing or two about overcoming cancer and getting back on the floor as a better player and person. Or Chris Andersen who was banned from the league for substance abuse, only to turn his life around and return as one of the best energy guys off the bench in the entire league. Or rookie Ty Lawson who was passed over by so many teams who thought he didn't have an NBA body or an NBA game.
And so on and so on.
The feel good stories here in Denver are endless, but they don't automatically translate into wins. Starting Thursday night in Cleveland, let's hope that the greatest feel good story in Nuggets history is about to unfold.
SCOUTING THE CAVALIERS...
Cavaliers Stiffs
-The Cavs peanut gallery insisting on a trade: When you're 43-11, it's hard to argue for an upgrade. And yet the entire NBA world was convinced that LeBron James was incapable of winning a ring without a second All-Star caliber player beside him (even though he plays with three former All-Stars in Mo Williams, Shaquille O'Neal and Zydrunas Ilgauskas). After weeks of speculation, the Cavs finally pulled the trigger on a deal sending Big Z away for Antawn Jamison, an All-Star player who needs a lot of shots. It will be interesting to see if Cavs coach Mike Brown can make this work with under 30 games left to play in the regular season.
-Anderson Varejao: If Varejao played on my team, I'd love him for baiting opposing power forwards and centers into unnecessary fouls. But since he's not on my team, he's a flopping pain-in-the-ass who drives me nuts for baiting opponents into fouls.
-LeBron James if he's leaves Cleveland: The Cavs organization has literally done everything and anything possible to surround LBJ with a championship caliber squad, evident yet again with the Jamison acquisition. Sure LBJ could bolt for New York, but did he notice that Donnie Walsh passed on Brandon Jennings and Ty Lawson in favor of Jordan Hill (already rumored to be on the trading block) and that the Knicks don't even have their own lottery pick this summer?
Cavaliers Non-Stiffs
-LeBron James: 29.9 ppg, 7.1 rpg, 8.3 apg (career high), 1.6 spg, 50.6% FG shooting (career high) and 36.1% three-point shooting (career high). Are you @#$%& kidding me?!
-Shaquille O'Neal: I gave O'Neal a hard time earlier in the season and even stupidly suggested the Nuggets consider trading K-Mart for him to ditch K-Mart's contract. But after taking a half season to get into shape, Shaq is producing making it very difficult for teams to score against or defend the Cavaliers. In the last 24 games, the soon-to-be 38 year old Shaq has scored in double digits 22 times while finally calling out Dwight Howard for ripping off his Superman routine. You gotta love the Diesel.
-Zydrunas Ilgauskas: Has a career starting center ever accepted a back up role so gracefully? This is why I cringed when I heard that the Big Z and his expiring contract were shipped out for Jamison. Lest we forget that LBJ loves this guy. Even worse, does this mean no more Big Z puppet ads? I love those!

so what
I think Jamison is waht you call a good guy and a good teammate, but only if he gets enough shots and in his world “enough” is “a whole lotta”. I don’t see him playing tonight and i don’t see this play out as well as the fans in cleveland want it to.
Not a bad time to play them
When you have to face a team that is dominating doing it after 6 days rest and a major trade can’t hurt. I’m not sure what to think of this trade but Cleveland certainly didn’t give up much. I think we have a perfectly good chance at winning but I’m just glad the Nugs are playing again. Kinda weird catching Cleveland and Washington on a back to back following this deal.
Doubt they are actually losing Big Z
It appears to be the same situation as when the Nuggets “acquired” McDyess in the Iverson-Billups trade. In this case Z is just going to sit out 30 games and then resign with the Cavs.
That's what I'm hoping
You’d hate to see a guy give himself totally to a franchise only to have them turn around and dump him in his twilights years on the verge of a ship. They’ll pick him back up. Or they risk cursing the franchise. Oh wait, that city’s already cursed. Perhaps something biblical in proportion would happen, like the Cuyahoga River lighting on fire. Oh wait…

Big Z
He has to wait 30 days to go back to Cleveland but not any other team. The nuggets should throw a irristable offer at him. Like “imagine beating them in the finals after they dumped you in that trade”?

By the way cleveland doesNOT have an open roster spot. They have the league maximum right now, so they have to waive someone else first
by JR2 on Feb 18, 2010 7:10 AM MST via mobile up reply actions
We should seriously try to poach Big Z
As far as I know if he is bought out by the Wizards and released, there will be no need to match salaries since he is in effect an unrestricted free agent. We can probably offer him a lot more than Cleveland and also possibly screw them over when they play tall teams in the playoffs. It also gives us some size to match up with the Lakers and hopefully keep our big guys fresh and reduces the chances of fouling out.
If the Nuggets are serious about finding another big guy for the lineup, this is as good as it gets as we wouldn’t have to release any of our core guys, just someone who isn’t producing to make room for him. I’m sure that Denver would be one of the teams he would like to play for seeing that they could use him and are certainly one of the top teams in the NBA.
You hit it on the head Andrew
From the coach on down, when something hits them in the mouth, these Denver Nuggets fight back HARD. It’s why I’m optimistic about Karl, why I think we’re legit title contenders as is, and why I genuinely love this team – maybe more than any I’ve ever rooted for.
Interesting, because the Nuggets are 0-7 in the past 7 years when facing elimination in the playoffs. I’m hoping this year’s team either: a.) doesn’t ever face eliminiation in the playoffs (unlikely) or b.) responds to the adversity by fighting back hard with a big win. We haven’t seen that fight-back response yet from the Nuggets in the playoffs. I hope you’re analysis is right, because that is what this team really needs to bring to the playoffs this season.
You're right about elimination games
But I was talking about the team in larger sense. KMart working to get back (better than ever, imho) in the face of injuries that gave him every reason in the world to throw in the towel. Melo working to make himself a better person, player and teammate after a lot of people had written him off as a troublemaker and malcontent. Karl having the guts to admit after the Laker debacle two seasons ago that what he was doing wasn’t working and going back to the drawing board. Chauncey taking his game to another level when people thought he was on the way out. Nene’s cancer battle. Even JR, through all his ups and downs, still out there game-in game-out trying to put it all together. That’s where I see the fight.
Sure, I’d like to see us do better in elimination games (though I’d prefer we simply not be in that position). But being a fighter isn’t really about the result – it’s about how you do it on the way there. Watching the Nuggets, I see a team that was Charmin soft for the better part of its existence and now refuses to be bullied by anyone or anything. I love that.
most of those elimination games were
an 0-3 situation, or a 3-1 situation
when ur down 3-0…correct me if i’m wrong but that upset has yet to happen in nba history
Tonight
Is not only going to be an epic game, but we’re going to see a different Denver Nuggets team. They’re ready, and so are we.
QUICK INJURY REPORT:
Nuggets: Renaldo Balkman is out (back strain) tonight.
Cavaliers: Mo Williams (left shoulder sprain) and Leon Powe (left knee surgery) are both out tonight as well.

short handed
the players involved in the trade aren’t playing either, so the Cavs will be short handed.
I’ve been one of the biggest critics of Karl on this site. I’m surprised at how much Karl getting cancer is bothering me. It’s like a member of my family got cancer.
Between the cavs being short handed and the nuggets emotional state, this should be a big win for the Nuggets.

Classy post
I know exactly how you feel. I haven’t always loved Karl as an X’s and O’s guy, but he’s brought me some great moments as a fan over the years and seems like genuinely good peeps to boot.
So get well big G – whatever differences we may have had over the years, you are family and Nuggets Nation has your back on this one.
Like Andrew mentioned on 104.3 last night ...
Karl is a part of our Nuggets family. Whether you like his coaching or not you probably are just realizing you have some unconditional sports love for him because … he’s like family.

Genuine
Is a word that has always described Karl to me. I don’t think you’ll find a more genuine guy in sports. Cares about the game of basketball. Cares about his players. Wears his heart on his sleeve a lot of times. Even if someone doesn’t agree with all of his moves on the basketball court, you’d be hard pressed to find anyone who doesn’t respect and admire him as a person and as a proponent of playing basketball the way it should be played.
I have a feeling the Nugs are going to really run with this. They’ve already shown over the past two seasons that they can beat anyone, and beat them badly, if they play the game right. I think they’ll be playing it right for Coach Karl now. I wouldn’t want to be Cleveland tonight.
And with the 32nd pick in the 2009 NHL draft, the Red Wings select: Someone other than Ryan O'Reilly. LOL@Detoilet.

expectations
I think it would be awesome and hugely inspirational to see the Nuggets respond to the GK news by playing some incredible basketball and winning a game like this. But who knows.
I’ve been a big complainer and doom-sayer after a lot of the bad losses this season, but at this point I won’t really blame them if they come out unfocused for any game.
Quite frankly, if it were up to me, I’d just throw in the towel.

Karl
Hi there, used to post here all the time but haven’t in ages. Just wanted to touch base with the wider Nuggets family to send my sympathy and support to GK and his family during this time. It’s been said a million times already but things like this put everything into persepctive. Sometimes I feel like I live and die by this team but this news sets me straight; it’s just a game. So heaps of love from this die hard Nuggets-head down under. Go Nuggets!
I don't have much to say
What with the news of George Karl’s cancer, the improvement of Dallas/Portland/Cleveland/Houston/etc., and not being able to get Tyrus Thomas/anyone at all, it hasn’t been a great week for us Nuggets fans. The Nuggets’ championship hopes are shrinking; it’s looking more and more like “there’s always next year” in Denver. Yeah, next year…when Portland will have recovered, Houston will have Yao back, OKC will be better than ever, the Lakers won’t have gone anywhere…the future doesn’t look great.
Hm. yeah. I was hoping to put something inspirational at this point but now I’m feeling too depressed. Help me think of something.
Ye of little faith
I’ll take the Nugs over any of the teams you mentioned, “upgrades” or no. And last I checked, we’re undefeated against the defending world champs. So at 35-18/2nd seed in the west, you wanna throw in the towel ‘cus we didn’t get Tryus fucking Thomas?
Screw that.
jeez debbie downer
none of those teams are really threats IMO-definitely not portland/houston. much more worried about utah, who we may be chasing in the standings before long.
deadline deals are overrated. while not supremely knowledgeable, I can’t even think of a recent one that had a huge impact.

I know we need offense
But i honestly hope we don’t go to Melo to find that. He can score, but once he gets it into his mind that everyone else is doing bad, he starts chucking, and the offense goes into “Give the ball to Melo and get out of the way” mode.
Bad as we're shooting
I’d be happy if we were just down single digits. The fact that we’re actually leading bodes pretty well in my book…
We turn into a jump shooting team

Good half.
I don’t like this early starts. In between the scary commute and cooking dinner in the first quarter and eating during the second, I really couldn’t pay attention to the game. I didn’t really get to see the Nuggets open that big lead. By the time I sat down to eat the Cavs were playing better basketball. Frustrating.
But it’s looking good. It is nice to see the Nuggets rested and healthy. Nice to see Anthony shooting like Anthony, 2-11? Yeah, baby!
What’s nice is when you know your team can improve substantially in the second half. If Melo is able to get going, we might actually win this thing.

denver did not make any moves at the trade deadline
pick up a calf every day pretty soon you will be picking up a cow
Could still make a move...
If any teams buy out an expiring contract, there will be players available after 30 days for the Nuggs to try to cherry pick. Maybe “Big Z”.
Melo is so clutch....
damn… Melo had a great game, Kmart was beasting, Billups hits some big shots, JR had the midrange going, AA was hot early, Ty changed teh game despite the stats, Nene did well, Bird was good til he injured his back Which i hope is ok…. overall great win….
love it
nuggets can win without a call going their way.. even the refs couldnt win that game for cleveland
And Billups
Wasn’t walking around too good.
He might be sore come tomorrow. Let Ty start against the icky Wiz.

MELO MVP!
I told my brother after regulation to either a) call time, b) pump fake and get the foul called on gibson or whoever was guarding Billups, or c) give it to Melo. Billups gave up the rock and Melo just did what he does… SCORE! Great game… I was on the edge of my seat the whole time and jumping around and screaming(to the dismay of my parents! =] )

Yup. CB1 had his chance at the end of regulation
Plus, Melo was shooting really good in the second half. He was dismal the first two quarters but ended up with a good shooting night: 47 percent.
Member: 10-man rotation for deep playoff push advocacy group
Yes!!!!!!
Melo was clutch in that fourth quarter. Anyone count how many three’s Lebron missed in the final minute? I’m going to guess 4, and what a bitch to walk straight into the locker room without even congratulation melo or anything. Man that was terrific, and I am so tired of LBJ getting every damn call. The last one was ridiculous, Nene didnt even graze him. Anyway, take that Cleveland, and national media!
Lebron always does that

Dont think so
Remember last year when he stormed off of the court and didn’t even talk to reporters when they were eliminated by Orlando? Show some class. And then he complains to the refs even though he gets 100% of the calls.

Probably only against the Lakers, Cavs, and maybe the Suns.

Congratulations. Great game, probably the most entertaining one ive watched all season. The way you guys play against us i’d rather the lakers come out of the west than you. And when i visit the opposition’s site after a game i don’t expect them to be singing lebron’s praises but some of the criticism isn’t fair i think. Whats the problem with him being emotional after a close loss? I’d rather my star player cry after a loss than laugh the way some players do.
And he didnt congratulate your guys after it was over, big deal. I see that more often than not from everyone, it’s common. If the result was different i would not have expected carmelo to congratulate lebron.
And about the refs, we lost and i’m not blaming them. Their standard wasnt great but it went both ways, we got some calls we shouldnt have, so did you, like that critical play where carmelo got lebron’s wrist when he was going up for a shot and it wasnt called. Bad calls went both ways.
You don't cry in a regular season game
I mean what is up with that? You still have a huge lead in the weak ass Eastern conference, hell you might only cry when you lose to end your season. Not sure anyone here cares about congratulating our players(maybe some but not a big deal). Also you shouldn’t blame the refs cause they were favoring the Cavs.
