Nuggets at Clippers: Stitch 'em together with bailing wire (8:30pm MST)

Denver Nuggets at Los Angeles Clippers, Feb 22, 2012 8:30 PM MST


With the evil "Ankle Injury Leprechaun" striking the Nuggets yet again, this time with Ty Lawson and Arron Afflalo, they prepare to take on the Los Angeles Clippers for the third time this season. This time facing a familiar face on a new team, yet again.

Star-divide

Game: 34

Records:
Denver:
18-15 (9-8 on the road)
Streak: won 1
Clippers: 19-11 (11-4 at home)

Injuries:
Denver
: Danilo Gallinari (left ankle sprain) is out. Nene (left calf strain) is questionable. Rudy Fernandez (lower back strain) is day to day. Arron Afflalo (sprained ankle) is day to day. Ty Lawson (sprained ankle) is day to day
Clippers: Chauncey Billups (torn Achilles) out for rest of season.

Television: Altitude

Season Series: tied 1-1

Opposition's Take: Clips Nation

This will be the third time in a month the Nuggets have played the Los Angeles Clippers. They should be quite familiar with this team by now, and Timofey Mozgov seems to be public enemy number one in Clipper-land because of his hard/not hard foul on Blake Griffin, February 2nd. It is undeniable that the Nuggets responded to that incident and went on to crush the Clippers in LA that night (112-91).

Aside from that, as we all know, circumstances are a bit different now. Chauncey Billups went down with a torn Achilles tendon not long after the Nuggets played the Clips in Los Angeles (Feb. 6th). Meanwhile the Nuggets have been through one calamitous injury after another. Since then, Nene Hilario, Danilo Gallinari, Mozgov, Afflalo and Rudy Fernandez, and Lawson have all missed time or are still missing time. In fact, the victory over the Clips on the Feb. 2nd may count as the highest point of this early season for the Nuggets. From there, the team has suffered through a month so hellish, Dante most likely wrote about it in his Inferno (3-8 since Feb. 2nd).

One further difference for the Clips is the addition of former Nuggets power forward Kenyon Martin. K-Mart unleashed a bit of controversy earlier this week when he made some rather incendiary comments toward his former coach George Karl. Regardless of what side you come down on in that particular debate, it definitely added some spice to this burgeoning rivalry. I always liked K-Mart, and despite the recent revisionist history ... the last several seasons, when healthy, Kenyon was the absolute key to the Nuggets' toughness. Sometimes I wish we had that toughness back. It will be interesting to see if he provides some of that tough-minded defense for the Clippers going forward.

As always the triumvirate of Chris Paul, Blake Griffin and DeAndre Jordan will be the focal points for the Nuggets to stop, or at the very least contain. It looks like the addition of Mozgov has, at the very least, neutralized Jordan's high flying blocking and alley oop dunking. Griffin has gone off in both games, but wasn't the same after Moz laid him out when attempting another dunk. Paul was a bit of a no-show in the second Nuggets meeting and surely will be looking to play better tonight. With the Clippers on a recent two game losing streak, they seek to end that against a heavily injured Nuggets team.

Nuggets of Wisdom

Who will play tonight for our Denver Nuggets? Will these players be stitched together with bailing wire and duct tape? The rash of ankle injuries is disturbing in many ways, not the least of which is its target on the Nuggets who are the biggest playmakers on the team. The Gallo injury is by far the one that affects the team the most, as he (with the clarity of his absence) is the glue that holds this offense and some of the defense together. Ty Lawson's ankle injury also hurts because it looked like he was starting to break out of his periodic "won't drive the ball or stay aggressive" swoon.

In all honesty, this may be one of those games where you just have to put a team on the court and pray that they can pull off a miracle of some sort. With the VERY real chance that the Nuggets may be missing both Ty and AAA tonight the likelihood of a Andre Miller, Al Harrington, Corey Brewer, Moz and Kenneth Faried starting lineup will be out there to face the Clippers. With Julyan Stone, Kosta Koufos, Jordan Hamilton and Chris Andersen on the bench.

I've seen stranger things happen than a Nuggets victory tonight. Hell, the fourth quarter and overtime of the Minnesota Timberwolves game may be proof that anything can happen. I have no expectations and I'm hoping beyond hope to be surprised and delighted. Let's see if it happens. I'm remaining hopeful the Nuggets can suddenly get healthy and surprise us all tonight.

Either way GO NUGGETS!

What revisionist history on Martin?

People were saying for years that his sign and trade was terrible, he was overpaid, and he cost the nuggets their legitimate window on a title with Melo. What revision? Kmart was a very good player when healthy. He health issues rendered him into fools gold.

Being good when not injured is exactly what made him fools gold

He’d look all shiny and valuable, then get injured and be unable to provide any useful service. Relying on Kmart to be a key rotation player most often resulted in disappointment.

Man....I see it the exact opposite

relying on Kenyon as a key rotation player proved its immense value in 2010 when he was out and our defense collapsed down the stretch. There was no doubt that season who was the MVP.

Exactly

he became worthless and the defense collapsed. Playing Kenyon Martin was a recipe for having your team collapse. He is a Ducati – looks great in the showroom, has great performance, and if you take it on a trip, you’ll end up stranded on the side of the road. That Honda that passes you will look very nice as it goes by on it’s way to winning in the playoffs.

I see it as bad, bad luck for the Nuggets

It’s been so long now, I don’t remember what his health issues were when he signed the contract. Should the Nuggets have seen the trouble coming?

Sometimes I think the Denver Nuggets are cursed.

I was excited when they signed him

and certainly bad luck. My anger with the contract is pure hindsight. He did have a broken leg in college, and the fact that the Nets weren’t offering him a similar contract should have been a red flag.

Formerly KS and CS

by ThrowItDownBigManThrowItDown on Feb 22, 2012 11:19 AM MST up reply actions  

Even if you take out the health issues

KMart was still vastly overrated. Yes, it was not his fault Kiki gave him that contract, but the bottom line is KMart was still a flawed player. And the bottom line is that the player + the salary = the impact. Having a limited player make that much money hamstrung this team for years. So while I enjoyed some of what KMart brought, you cannot discuss KMart without including the albatross contract.

by NugzJunkie on Feb 22, 2012 12:43 PM MST up reply actions  

Put the Kmart signing in context

It was not a good contract, but at the time he was signed, the Nuggets needed two things, a PG (Miller signed) and muscle on the blocks due to the fact that Camby and Nene are soft. Kmart was a 14 and 8 guy that provided toughness. Certainly he was paid too much, but he was one of the biggest names on the market back then, coming off of championship runs and he was seen as the person that could get the Nuggets past the first round and potentially much further. It didn’t work out…but Kmart is not a scrub either, and he certanily wasn’t when he signed.

You mean like 90% of the NBA? Weak argument

And Kmart was a HUGE plus on defense. While he was a sub par defensive rebounder he did actually quarterback the defense ala Kevin Garnett (although KG has always been a better all around player)

KMart played fake defense

he would preach it, yap about it to his teammates even on the floor, but would only back it up 50% of the time. I will admit he played some amazing D at times (thinking of the Dallas series) but other times he would be the reason for the missed assignment. I will stick to the fact that he was flawed.

The current players haven't been exposed to him for very long yet

Karl’s history is that the players get along with him for a while, then he loses the team. In his prior stops, the teams fired him when it happened. This time, Melo forced his way out and the rebuilt the team when it happened. So he has a new lease before the current group turns on him.

How is it different

for Karl to say bad things to the media after the Melo trade and for Kmart to say bad things about Karl when he is on another team? Exactly the same.

It’s office politics, and it is an important lesson that anyone who plans on working with other people needs to learn. I was told about it at a very young age, didn’t want to believe it, then had it nearly cost me my job. It has already cost Karl jobs in the past.

Regardless of the outcome

I’m looking forward to Faried coming from no where to completely reject Griffin on one of his showboat dunks. The Clippers shouldn’t be mad at Moz about that block. The reality is that Griffin was showboating and that’s why the block resulted in him landing awkwardly. If it had been a normal dunk, he would have landed on his feet.

You would think that after missing his entire rookie year to injury, he might have wised up some. And, for the record, when he’s in the open court, I have no problem with the highlight dunks. This is, after all, entertainment. It’s when he’s dunking in traffic out of the half court set, and he gets that body lean going in the air, that he’s really putting his entire career in jeopardy.

is there a positive side ot all this loosing and injuries?

maybe.

if we take Kenneth Faried’s last game (and continual improvement) and the emergence of Kosta Koofus as a beginning, then there could be some extremely positive things in store for the Nuggets. One day, and not too far in the future, the Nuggs will have their players well and ready to play. When that day comes, our “role players” will have had some valuable time, and the Nuggs will be ready to make the playoff push.

Remember, while Gallo is out, he is also resting and there is a positive to that also.

I hope this theory is correct

others have said the same as you. I worry about the Juwan Howard effect. Getting minutes on a bad team inflates stats and can make guys look better than they are.

Rough

Can’t wait for Gallo, Ty, and Nene to be back. And would be nice the sooner we can get Chandler.

While most everyone has been critical of Nene for his passive play, and rightly so, he actually can be a very good playmaker in the post, as he does create opportunities for the rest of the team. He is what he is, but they don’t have another player of his caliber at his position.

Very interested to see how many minutes Faried gets on Griffin tonight, and how they handle the pick and roll tonight.

Karl said yesterday

that they expect Gallo back soon after the ASG. Maybe not the first game back, but hopefully the second or third game.

Zhejiang Guangsha lost their first playoff game today 103-106

I believe the first round is best of 3, so Chandler could be free by Friday. Should have him back for the first game after the all star break.

I think faried can handle griffin

at least athletically, faried doesn’t lose out. how awesome would it be when griffin goes real high for one of his flashy dunks and faried meets him up there for an epic block.

I'd agree with this. Griffin isn't a post player who bodies you alot

he likes to coast on the wing and look for dunk opportunities. You just need to stay in front of him.

Hopefully the Nuggets' starting backcourt is good to go.

I don’t really think Paul was a, “no-show” last game, as referred to in the preview; AAA played great pressure defense on him, had him frustrated and making mistakes. Also, when CP3 was trying his Flop-City tricks, the referees weren’t giving him calls and it caused him to make some turnovers while expecting bail out whistles.

Small world and small minds

K-Mart’s “comments” are another example of how small the world it is and the minds in it can be. I think they are actually funny. The idea that Melo would have stayed in Denver if the “organization” was better is hilarious. The Denver FO tried incredibly hard to build a team around Melo (and K-Mart). Maybe they didn’t do the right moves, had bad luck and then in the end became dysfunctional as a FO might be all true, but the effort was there. Melo just wanted to move on to a big market. Pretty simple.

I think Denver got lucky with Ujiri hire and hopefully have a highly functional FO now. In fact they may be able to reach new heights of success off the foundation built by the “Melo era”.

K-Mart probably does have some bitter feelings and maybe rightfully so. He has always played on rage and anger, it is what motivates him. But the story was just another example of a reporter needling a player about a sore subject to get some juicy quotes.

In the end, it isn’t that big of a deal.

And about the games...

So the Nuggets have 2 games left before the all-star break. The past month has ground the Nuggets in the back of the pack in the Western Conference playoff hunt, but it has also let the bench players (esp the rooks) develop at a much faster pace. I have been impressed with how hard the team has played the last 3/4 games.

This will make the team much more dangerous post all-star break. Even if they can’t sneak a win out of the next two games.

For tonight, I think Ty will be a big loss if he is a no go. Clips are a bad defensive team, esp against dribble penetration. If he can’t go, the Nuggets need to turn it into a complete scramble game and hope they can turn the Clips over.

If that happens then there are going to be dunks galore. And probably the worst thing about tonight’s game? The Spurs are watching if from Denver. Sigh… it is a hellish February.

Everytime JHam gets in the game, you see flashes of his ability to score, and if I’m not mistaken, I believe he’s our best 3 point shooter atm… A start could go a long way to boosting his confidence and hopefully he’d eliminate some of those rookie mistakes he makes everytime he’s in there for any extended period of time.

You can tell he’s not totally comfortable when he’s out there, but again, I think with a confidence booster that garbage goes away…. that was pretty bad, though… almost looked like he thought he was closer to the basket and by the time he turned for the baby jump hook, he realized too late how far out he was… Still there’s no denying he shoots better than most of the guys we’ve been running out there lately.

Hamilton

He looks uncomfortable because he’s a rookie and not being able to work with the coaches in the offseason really hurt him. Plus, there was no summer league for him to play in also

Which is exactly why he shouldn't start

The regular season when you are a playoff team looking to get out of the first round isn’t where you develop rookies. It’s where you win as many games as possible.

Do I think JHan should get more playing time in light of the injuries? Hell yes. But start?

Nah.

Who should start at the 2 guard if AAA’s out? I mean we started Stone for crying out loud. So I think it’s Hamilton’s time to get a start

As unseasoned as Stone is

He’s never been reckless with the ball.

I doubt Rudy and AAA will both miss tonight’s game. But, I suppose that if they do, you might just get your wish and I’ll be glad that I had to miss tonight’s game.

What's wrong with starting?

If you think he should get more PT with the injuries, then what’s wrong with giving him a confidence booster by getting the start.. he can do much less damage by starting and getting yanked 5 minutes in, if he’s not contributing, than coming in late 3rd/early 4th quarter of a close game to give someone else a spell, ie the Timberwolves game.

as Rams owner Stan Kroenke gets closer to buying the L.A. Dodgers.

According to the Los Angeles Times (via SportsBusiness Daily), Peter O’Malley has abandoned his bid to buy the team. Since O’Malley was one of 11 bidders to make the first cut, his departure drops the number of competitors to 10.

One of the 10 is Kroenke.

The group will be cut to five after a new wave of bidding. And then, after another round of bidding, a winner will be selected.

I just would like for him to play in the 2nd and 4th quarters as well. Karl yanks him 5 minutes into the first quarter and 3 minutes into the thrid quarter never to return to the game. He won’t get better if Karl keeps toying with him like this. He does have a nice jumper as well

That is stupid

Kobe, Durant, Rose and the other “superstars” could probably call the referees everything under the sun without getting ejected

STIFF LIST (as of 4/26 by Andrew Feinstein)

1. METTA WORLD PEACE

Metta resorted back to Ron Ron last Sunday by clubbing James Hardenwith an "inadvertent celebratory elbow", landing him a 7-game suspension. Apparently, changing his name didn't prevent NBA commissioner David Stern from overlooking Metta's past behavior problems.

2. CHARLOTTE BOBCATS

The 'Cats are on the verge of securing the worst winning percentage in NBA history. Given that the guy who runs the team - Michael Jordan - had previously drafted Kwame Brown and Adam Morrison, should this really be a shock?

3. OKLAHOMA CITY THUNDER
The team that was supposedly built to overcome the lockout-shortened season managed to lose 7 of its last 14 games, ceding the Western Conference's 1-seed to the Spurs in the process. Their reward might be a first round matchup with defending champion Dallas.

4. BILLY HUNTER AND DEREK FISHER
With report after report coming out about NBPA union head Hunter's shady, nepotistic dealings and questions arising about Fisher's own role in dealing with NBA owners behind Hunter's back during the lockout, this off-the-court scandal could prove to be more exciting than the playoffs themselves!

5. STEVE NASH AND THE PHOENIX SUNS
The Suns are on this list for squandering the last few great seasons from Nash. Nash is on this list for his stupidly stubborn loyalty to a franchise as awful as the Suns.
