Golden Nuggets...

Is a sad one. Depressing even. Geesh, I mean, how could an ailing daughter (if you have one, I hope you can see where I’m coming from) cause you to give in to these vices? I’d be way more focused on her than drinking or gambling even if I had problems with both I’d think. But then again, I don’t know the severity of what his daughter is supposed to be facing and I can see how possible depression around his fading career coupled with possibly a very bad scenario for his daughter could weigh heavily on a man who’s been known to crack a bottle in his day. It’s all just kinda sad. I hope for the best for the guy. He’s a hall of fame’r and inspiration to all the ‘little guys’ of the world, literally and figuratively via his style of play on the court and toughness throughout the years. Hopefully his legacy can recoup itself over time here and this isn’t the last note on a very great career.

He and Arenas could gamble and play with guns and go drinking and play ball, and if they got a reality show going before it all started to go downhill it could be awesome!!!!

He’s garbage and should not get a whiff in Denver, nor should Brian cook. Balkman and Petro should fill in Kenyon’s minutes. I don’t think there’s anyone (other than Dwayne Jones) that the Nuggets should seriously look at.

As for the AI situation, it’s definatly sad. Yeah the due has problems and hasn’t always been the most model citizen, but he did things on the court we have never seen before and might never see ever again. I always like AI and I wish him luck the rest of his life.

As for the players we might sign. Two words: no thanks. Balkman and Petro are ten times better than any scrubs we could scrape off the floor of the NBA free agency market.

He’s a slightly beefier Balkman without the hustle….and we already have a Balkman on the roster.

No thank you

I wouldn’t bring anybody else in. Especially if reports are true that K-mart will be able to return at some point. GK’s cancer and K-mart going down with injury have provided the nuggets as a TEAM the opportunity to come together and fight for one another. Those 2 very unfortunate incidents should make this team bond together and bringing in somebody that disrupts that would be a mistake in my opinion. I’ve grown very fond of this team, probably more so than any other nuggets team ever, and I want to see this team of characters gut out a championship run however flawed they may be.

Who do we think we are? Just because we rooted for a guy who was on our sports team of choice doesn’t give us the right to tell him how to live his life… Does Smith? Who anointed him moral leader of the sports world? Allen is an adult and as someone who has had the responsibility of holding the hopes and dreams of millions of fans while being paid millions of dollars to do so, I think he can take of himself. That’s not to say he shouldn’t get help if he has addictions he can’t overcome, but only that the extent to which fans feel ownership of public figure athletes can be ridiculous…

He’s going to go the Antoine Walker route of bankruptcy and gambling problems without enough help.
