PrintDenver Nuggets at Houston Rockets, Mar 15, 2010 6:30 PM MDT
My apologies about the Grizzlies recap, like Johan Petro has done a time or two ... I dropped the ball. The important thing to make note of ... Denver is finally above the .500 mark on the road, back in control of the #2 seed (by 1/2 a game) and riding high on a 6-game win streak. The Nuggets will look to make it seven in a row tonight in Houston.
The particulars ...
Records:
Opposition's Take: The Dream Shake
Denver: 45-21 (28-5 at home, 17-16 on the road)
Houston: 33-31 (18-14 at home, 15-17 on the road)
Denver current streak: Won 6. They are 8-2 in their last 10 games.
Houston current streak: Won 2. They are 6-4 in their last 10 games.
Injuries:
Denver: Ty Lawson (left shoulder contusion) is questionable. Kenyon Martin (left knee tendinitis) is out tonight. Renaldo Balkman (mid-back strain) did not make the road trip with the team and may have had surgery on his back ... looking to confirm. Chris Andersen is probable after suffering a broken ring-finger on his left hand against the Grizzlies.
Houston: Yao Ming (left foot surgery) is out.
Like the Nuggets, the Rockets are battling for their playoff lives. Unlike the Nuggets, who are jockeying for playoff seeding position, the Rockets are just battling from the outside-looking-in to get into the post season.
Houston is riding a two-game win streak after defeating the New Jersey Nets Saturday March 13th in a game in which Luis Scola hit 20 of 25 shots, scoring 44 points in a 116-108 win. I didn't think it was possible for Scola to score 44 points in an NBA game, but he does have an assortment of post-moves and a reliable jumper ... still 44 points is quite a feat for the power forward.
The good news ... the Nuggets are a little bit more banged up today than they were on Saturday before the Memphis game. Wait ... that isn't good news at all! Birdman suffered a broken ring finger on his non-shooting hand and I guess the good news there is he doesn't often need is left hand for much and he'll likely play through the pain. Johan Petro was visibly limping around a bit against the Grizzlies and I thought to myself ... we can't lose Petro! The French Resistance has been playing better than I expected in K-Mart's absence and it's sort of fun watching him come along and be a part of the rotation. Who knows ... with all the burn he's getting he might just be the in-house big man the Nuggets were searching for this season after all.
This is the last game of the current four-game road trip before the Nuggets return to the Pepsi Center tomorrow night to face the Washington Wizards and it's always key to win the first game of a back-to-back set. The only issue tonight ... Houston is a tough place to play.
The Nuggets did earn a win in Texas back on January 27th when they defeated the Rockets 97-92 and the Nuggets won the first match up with Houston on December 16th in Denver (111-101). This is the last regular season meeting between the two teams this season and the Nuggets are looking to complete the sweep.
Houston looks a little bit different now than they did before the trade deadline as they made the biggest splash in the league when they traded for shooting guard Kevin Martin or "The Other K-Mart" as he's sometimes referred to by Nuggets Nation.
Along with the addition of Kevin Martin the Rockets added rookie Jordan Hill and defensive ace Jared Jeffries from the New York Knicks. Gone is Carl Landry and former franchise player Tracy McGrady. Houston is sort of rebuilding on the fly and may have salvaged a total rebuilding process in the wake of losing McGrady by plugging in both Martin and Hill.
While it'll be nice to see some fresh faces in Houston ... I'll be looking for Denver to push their current win streak to seven games after tonight's contest.
Views you can use:
- Houston is another team that doesn't have the best bench around. In their win against the Nets, the Rocket reserves combined for just 22 points ... 8 less than J.R. Smith scored by himself against the Grizzlies.
- Johan Petro is averaging 7.2 rebounds in his last four games. The Nuggets needed somebody to get on the glass and Petro hasn't disappointed ... even notching 10 rebounds twice in those four games.
- J.R. Smith shot 70% (7-10) from beyond the arc against the Grizzlies and led the team with 30 points. Smith is definitely looking like a player that heats up as the season wears on.

Looking forward to this game
We really need to win to distance ourselves from dallas and put pressure on LA. I have a feeling that the lakers will choke at the end of this month during their difficult schedule

As somebody on ESPN pointed out the other day.
Just think of where the Lakers would be if Kobe hadnt hit his 6 or 7 game winners.

Or where the Nugs would be
If they hadn’t lost to some of the league’s bottom feeders? This team is such an enigma. The real question is, can they explode their way in spurts, like the one in the 4th quarter Saturday night, to an NBA title? They can not only beat anyone, they can destroy anyone. If they are clicking on all cylinders and playing team ball.

Shades of last season
This team, now running a 10 man rotation, is starting to feel like last years team where the fresh legs off the bench would combine to wear out the other team and end up with a second half blowout.
Oh, and since A.D. is currently undefeated as a head coach, I say let’s nominate him for coach of the year! Who else can say they are undefeated at this point in the season? (Tongue planted firmly in cheek)

Well he may have scored 44 in an NBA game
but many would hardly consider the Nets an NBA team. How have the Rockets been since the deadline? Looking at the standings they haven’t seemed to be playing any better since getting the far inferior K-mart.

You think Rick Adelman is thinking “we just gotta’ get the ball more to Scola”?
Well Trevor Ariza has been ABSOLUTELY horrible
Since the ASB, he’s doing around 12-13 ppg and 5 rpg with barely any assists on around 30% FG shooting.

not to nitpick or anything
But everywhere else I’m looking says the Nuggets are 8-2 in their last 10 games.
Back before this road trip started, it looked like Saturday’s game in Memphis was going to be the toughest one. Now looking ahead to the next few games, tonight’s game is the toughest.
This team has some real heart, winning 3 straight on the road without GK or K-Mart.

An oversight by me on that 8-2 mark … you are correct and it’s fixed now!

A win...
puts us a full game up on Dallas, a loss brings us back to a tie. Maybe not exactly a MUST win, but i think you can see where I’m going with this.
You heard it here 1st
“Who knows … with all the burn he’s getting he might just be the in-house big man the Nuggets were searching for this season after all.”
I’ve been telling people Petro deserves PT since the start of the season. Good to see people finally coming around. My wife jokes that Petro pays me cause I’m always yelling at my TV for Karl to put him in (early season)
Petro
Nene
AA
Melo
CB
That is our starting lineup next year. Kmart comes back he will start but Petro will be 1st off bench to replace Nene
starting lineup
for next year is way to early to call yet. I’m all for Petro, but if Kmart’s knee is healthy (big if) he’s not going to be happy getting demoted to the bench in a contract year. Most likely way something like this happens is if Kmart is recovering from knee surgery. Also, need to see who, if anyone, the nuggets sign for the midlevel.
Completely agree that Petro (and Graham and Allen) have shown enough they should have been getting minutes earlier in the season.
Allen doesn't deserve to step foot on the court for any team much less a contender in my opinion
I do wonder who the Nugs will get with the mid-level too. They have that every year right? Same thing they used to sign Bird I believe. I imagine they will be targeting Tyrus Thomas again as he is the perfect guy for Kmart to teach.
there are 2 different cap exceptions I THINK
one is the mid level the other is the bi-annual. the mid level is commited to andersen and the bi-annual is the one they still have.
pick up a calf every day pretty soon you will be picking up a cow
Damn
Gonna have to be Warrick or a guy like him then. Unless they can trade some more draft picks (which I highly recommend).
kleiza's rights
i would rather have graham than linas any day. there will be players like aaron gray and rob kurz available as free agents. i am NOT saying get those 2 guys but there are options out there similar to those guys at minimum cost that denver can upgrade the roster.
pick up a calf every day pretty soon you will be picking up a cow
Linas seems to have improved his shot back to his 2007-08 levels
Get Warrick. If Petro’s our starter, we’re screwed

mid-level
they get a new mid-level exception every year, I believe, so they can sign someone new this offseason.
nohoops4u is saying they used that up on Bird for next year
Wish we had more concrete evidence for this one
Mid-Level Exception
A team is allowed to sign one player to a contract equal to the average NBA salary, even if the team is over the salary cap already, or if the signing would put them over the cap. This is known as the Mid-level exception (MLE). The MLE may be used on an individual free agent or split among multiple free agents, and is available to any team that exceeds the salary cap at the beginning of the offseason. The Mid-Level Exception for the 2008-09 NBA season was $5.585 million.2 The MLE is $5.854 million for the 2009-10 NBA regular season.3

So they do have it for next year?
They didn’t use it on Bird allready?
Sweet
Bring in Tyrus Thomas then I would say. Perfect guy for Kmart to mentor.
Tyrus is gonna command 4-5 million
Since we’re already over the tax, that’s like 8-10 million for a backup.

Nugs win the title or get really close my money is on Stan spending more money
Guess we’ll have to wait and see.
it depends on kmart's knee
if he needs surgery he will be done for the year. insurance COULD pay his mega salary for next season and denver gets an injury exemption from the nba for his salary cap number. if that scenario happens that could be 17 million off the payroll. with kmart’s history of knee injury there will be no such thing as minor knee surgery for him.
pick up a calf every day pretty soon you will be picking up a cow
It’s my understanding that you get the MLE each year. Denver used some of the MLE from this past offseason to re-sign Birdman, but they will have the MLE next season as well.

It’’s a good thing that triple A is signed for two years.
no way in hell kmart is coming off the bench
by Rainbow skyline on Mar 15, 2010 3:51 PM MDT up reply actions
Nor should it happen
No need to start Petro, he can come off the bench. Kmart’s lock down d and tenacity are a strong part of the first unit.
..
I never stated kmart should come off the bench
Btw, am I the only one?
Who wishes we made a stab at Jordan Hill? I mean the Knicks basically gave him up for cap space. I’m not saying we could’ve gotten him that easily, but he was chosen…what? 8th in the draft? So he’s gotta have SOME potential, or something. And he can’t really be any worse than Tacos.
Ah well.
knicks would have liked to keep hill
that was the price they had to pay to get rid of jeffries’ contract. getting rid of jefferies allows the knicks to sign 2 max contracts for next season.denver is 5 deep at guard. another guaranteed rookie deal would have complicated things for next season.
pick up a calf every day pretty soon you will be picking up a cow
Their real price
Was those two draft picks.

Their home record is pretty horrible (18-14)
while their road record is not much worse than ours. It’s their road record that is killing their playoff positioning.
It also means we have no excuse to lose tonight.
You mean it's our road record?
Because for a 9th/10th seed, they have a damn good road record

this is another game cb1 has a huge advantage over his opponent
the question is will billups take brooks into the paint or will he settle for jump shots. it would be great to see the starters begin the game like the subs did at the start of the 4th quarter against memphis. nene during the first 9 minutes of the memphis game went 0 for 2 from the field, 0 points, 0 rebounds, 1 steal, 1 turnover and 2 fouls. at the half nene and petro had 0 rebounds and andersen had 1 rebound. chauncey and melo need to get their teammates involved by passing the ball. denver has an advantage along the front line if they are willing to make the extra pass. billups can get into the paint any time he wants. there should be many chances to dish off to the big men for easy dunks.

Luis Scola is a Free agent (I think) after this season...
With tacos probably gone next year and the biannual exception. I think he would be great fit for the Nuggets
Scola will be getting a nice fat contract this summer
Most likely from the Rockets
by runningdonut on Mar 15, 2010 5:18 PM MDT up reply actions
Luis Scola is my favorite non-Nuggets NBA player, but I think he is going to be out of our price range unless we move some other contract this summer.
only if he keeps his hair short
No desire to watch an entire season of stringy greasy hair running up and down the court.
Rockets fan here
Trust me if you had Scola on your team, you would want him to keep his hair long. It’s his secret weapon, it fakes his opponents out and distracts them. Not like we going to give him up…hopefully.

Scola was a Nugget
but his name was Ed Najera.
Prediction: Scola scores 16 pts tonight on 5-13 shootin
with two 3 pointers and and 2 FT… and Nugs win.
I'll bet against that
that would be 14 pts

I love me some Rockets, but man if they don't like our "Thuggets"
Apparently, our tattoos are yucky and we win because the referees a bloo bloo bloo.
Just saiyan.
Swats.
Huh?
Well, we like you guys a lot more than the other elite Western teams, as we really don’t like the Lakers (well, who doesn’t?) and HATE HATE HATE Utah and Dallas.
Also, claiming that the Rockets do not have a good bench is another seriously “Huh?” moment for me – you guys say “The bench only scored 22,” we say “The Nets suck so bad that we can beat them without major bench contribution.” Really, it’s a large part of when we win.
Minnesotan Rockets fan
Not you specifically
But last time Denver came in and abused the Rockets, a lot of whining started about the Nuggets tats and general “thuggishness”.
Swats.
I thought those were Mavs' fans
I thought the DreamShakers were by and large pretty respectful. Brain damaged, but respectful.
I know for sure the Mavs Moneyball site thread the last Nugs/Mavs game is the one that had the photoshopped JR as Tupac picture, and used Thuggets as a substitute for the N word.
I guess that's probably true that some fans do that - I'll admit I really don't think anything good or bad about Denver.
But no matter how much any Rockets fan may whine about that stuff, when it comes down to it, we don’t want to throw every Nugget in the lowest pits of hell like we would do in 2 seconds to Boozer or Dirk.

Dude that did the preview on The Dream Shake is a serious homer
He said that Houston’s bench has a very crucial advantage over the Nugs, LOL! He also said that AAA is a decent defender, LOL! Then he went on to say that Nene barely holds an edge over Chuck “What the fuck am I doing playing center?” Hayes, LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Chuck Hayes is very underrated
Extremely good defensively, and an expert at the outlet pass.

Lol, really?
Why is it that Nuggets fans still hold on to the rumor that Houston has a weak bench? You do realize that Landry was a 6th man candidate when in Houston, Lowry could start for other teams, and oh, by the way, how much would Denver like Shane battier of the bench?
Nene played weak because Chuck “I get New York Times articles written about me” Hayes bodied him up and set the tone for his lack of a game outside 2 ft.
And the Nuggets lost because they can’t play defense when it counts. They just wasted a great performance by Carmelo and a gut check second half by Billups. lol?

Also if St. Patty’s weekend got to you early just own it. Green beer haze is nothing to be ashamed of. Unless of course you did something rather shameful.
About the “Other K-Mart” nickname. I move that we just call him the “Extremely less significant K-Mart” or Kevin. I’d be fine with just calling him “Hey you” as well.
melo has struggled from 3 point line too

But I'm not watching in HD. So that could be it.

Maybe this is my hometown bias...
But while Melo gets to the line a lot and clearly gets his share of whistles… it seems to me like he gets clobbered a lot without calls.
So.

We sucked in the first quarter
last time we played the Rockets in Houston and beat them. This is all part of the game plan.

once those offensive rebounds and layups start going in
and rockets cool off a bit, we’ll turn it around. similar thing happened last time against houston
Bad officiating tonight
But not as bad as Nuggs D in the first quarter.

Not near as bad as in the Grizzlies game
Wasn’t there only one Grizzly foul to the Nuggets first ten fouls?
Houston is giving Denver chances
and Denver is not taking advantage.

All you want on the road is to be within 5 with 5 to go. Long as we’re in that range, you gotta like the Nuggets chances – they do it time & again.

Melo and Nene need to go to the rack
i thought nene was one person who played well offensively
melo not bad either. just a couple missed layups. its the defense that needs to tighten up. even if they’re completely open, the rockets won’t shoot that well in the 2nd half though.
how has JR played in the first half
did the nuggets end the half on a sh*tty note? or did things start to turn near the end?
It got better for you guys as Melo started being well, Melo

saw from the highlights that he was in the game. What kind of an injury did he get?
not having chauncey hurt
melo is the better player, but for a last second off balance 3 pointer, i’d rather have chauncey taking it. or maybe even JR

by ColoradoAggie11 on Mar 15, 2010 9:20 PM MDT up reply actions
Ugh
This one to me is disappointing, we had them, and we couldn’t finish them. The backcourt disappeared in the end of the 4th quarter. Billups’ last two fouls were stupid and he should not have made them. Nene, 4 words, dunk the fucking ball. Props to Johan. Ac had another good game, his defense was solid on that last possession. Melo was unbelievable, especially to end the third and start the fourth. Hope Bird is ok, not sure what happened, looked like he got hit on the head in that collision. Let’s get the Wiz tomorrow, can’t win em all.

I mean, really. He’s been getting hurt like crazy since January. Three sprained ankles, his knee acting up again, fractured finger and a strained back. Seriously, how much more can he take?

I mean he look sterrible out there but he does exactly what we need, pick up easy points and bang on the boards…then, just seconds before nohoops berates me, I remember houston’s center is Chuck Hayes, all 6’6" of him, and i crawl back into my hole
