Preseason Game 2: Nuggets vs. Suns 7pm

After the game the other night

Went strait to NBA.com and bought a Faried jersey. I was tempted to do a custom one that said Manimal on the back but went with just Faried. Looking forward to another exciting game tonight.

by TopherYork on Dec 22, 2011 4:34 PM MST reply actions

Good call.

You should always go with the last name on jerseys. Can always get a t-shirt with Manimal on it or something down the road if you desire.

Let’s go Nuggets!

You can wear this ONLY

If you are under the age of 25. If over, just buy a Tee shirt or a hoodie. No grown man should wear a jersey – period. (unless, of course you are a professional athlete)

Nope - its in the

I think it would be fun to see what would happen if Karl gave most of the minutes to the younger players hoping to secure a spot on team. There isn’t a single young player we have that I dislike and it would be great to see what they can really do, not just wait until the second half.

I miss him already. I understand why the Blazers wanted to trade him, but I thought it was a huge mistake. But it did one thing – it made me an instant Nuggets fan. Andre Miller is one of the smartest guys you’ll see on the court. Just watch. When things are looking bad, he will find the holes and show the young ‘uns how it’s done. He won’t be a star scorer, but he’s a kingmaker. Who set Aldridge up for all those lobs? Dre. Be nice to the guy – he’ll make you proud.

I like our big men tonight

Even if Kostas looks a little out of position on offense, his body is huge. He has 5 rebounds, and 7 points despite 2-5 from the field. A positive of that is that he is 3-3 from the free throw line.

No Nugget of any significance has started and ended his career in Denver

I think he should back up moz, and keep Kostas as the 12th man. Unless Faried won’t back up Nene, which then I’d say Kostas should back up Moz and Bird back up Nene.

Faried even runs like Rodman

Knees high. And his heels never touch the ground. Pedaling like Rodman loping down the court or riding the exercycle.

Yeah the regular season will be ugly for a lot of teams

Its like preseason on crack. So you are going to see tired legs and rusty players. I think we will have a good December because of our depth, but we won’t know what we really look like until late January.

Who the Nuggets?

I see W at Dallas after b2b, W v.s Jazz at home, close W over a depleted Portland team (Rudy and Dre will show up).
W vs. the Lakers sans Bynum and Odom.

So I am not sure what you are thinking.

Nice win

The Nuggets depth was on full display tonight as many of the regulars were out or played minimal minutes. Granted, the Suns are turrible, but I wall impressed with the Nuggs play on the road. Key takeaways:

1) Defense – this team is a terrific defensive team. The made Phoenix look really bad with their defense tonight. The combination of size and speed is going to be a real asset for the Nuggs.

2) Game balls to KK and Brewer. KK was tough on defense, on offense and on the glass. The dude is big and using his size in an athletic way. Brewer showed why Karl loves the guy — hustle player that give you a lift off the bench.

3_ The Rooks – the rookies – Faried and Stone – - looked great again. Faried is just a rebounding machine, but his defensive intelligence needs some work. Stone backed up Andre, and looks like he could very ably man the pg position as the 3rd PG. He’s a solid rook.

4) Gallo Is Going to Have a Big Season – - He scored a very quiet 20 points. Imagine when he has a BIG game.

5) Would play Faried over Carroll. Karl seems to like Carroll, but Faried is the superior player. Let’s not waste valuable minutes on Carroll when Faried needs those minutes to improve.

Great pre-season, now let’s get it on against Dallas!

Does anyone know if Higgins and Ruffin are getting cut

Well I am 100% sure Ruffin will get cut, but will DC, & Higgins get cut?

Gotta love the haterz. Keep that hate a comin'

by JR15 on Dec 22, 2011 9:50 PM MST reply actions

We can only have a max of 15 players on the roster

So I am guessing Higgins gets the cut, I am not sad with DC as our 15th man. He is waaaaay better than Malik Allen so I will gladly replace that Tacos with DC any day.

We can drop DC I believe.

I think if I could only pick one of those 3

It would be D.C every time. The other two can make 36,000 a year being practice fodder, but not playing on the team. D.C has been on an NBA team before, played very well tonight and has a lot of defense in him.

Besides, we need to keep the Braidy Bunch alive.

Crunching the numbers of Preseason.

Nuggets averaged 118.5 points per game while giving up 97 points per. That’s an average winning margin of 21.1, the lowest scoring quarter in all games was the first game when we scored 26. The highest scoring quarter was 34, also in the first game. The average score per quarter was 27.5 for our Nuggets. We averaged 32.5 points per in the 4th quarter, the highest average out of all the quarters which is interesting to note.

Steamroll the NBA by surprise

And make it to the NBA finals/ win it all if Karl places in an effective half court offense with pick and rolls for Nene and an inside outside game for our perimeter guys.

I am hoping its Bulls/ Nuggets, that would be a fun series to watch.
