"We're a bad basketball team right now," he said. "If your team isn't playing hard and not defending, that's an indictment of you as a coach."

Ranking the Contenders in the West
Nuggets at #2 -
"It's early in the season, but Anthony is already getting MVP buzz, and the Nuggets are picking up where they left off last year. Chauncey Billups is playing well. And so are Nene and Ty Lawson. Opponents are going to have a difficult time keeping Denver out of the Western Conference Finals. They're a talented team with good chemistry and a lot of confidence. They're going to be a hard team to beat."

Wally Szczerbiak considering retirement
Check out the article, which details Wally's hope of playing for the Knicks and the fact he had surgery 3 weeks ago, now being advised by doctors he may not be able to sustain another basketball injury to his knees. The Nugs offered Wally a minimum contract, but I believe with the range of Ty Lawson and Arron Afflalo - plus the defense of Joey Graham Wally would not have found minutes on the Nuggets roster anyhow. Either way, it seems Wally may retire from the NBA altogether, where he had a good career and made a lot of money.

Balkman signs 3 year contract extension
Nugs also pick up Afflalo's option for next year. Adrian Wojnarowski tweeted the extension is for 3 years and $5.2 million, with bonuses for wins and minutes played. That's a bargain and a good sign Naldo will play more in the future.

San Diego Sports News Network: 2009 Western Preview
2.) Denver Nuggets
While a lot of the teams in the West re-tooled, the Nuggets had their "next level" moment last season, when they acquired Chauncey Billups for Allen Iverson. Billups brought a veteran presence and led Denver, always a talented but rudderless team, to its best record in franchise history (54-28). This offseason, their two main acquisitions were shooting guard Aaron Afflalo and rookie point guard Ty Lawson, from North Carolina. Coach George Karl told me before the Nuggets took on the Lakers at the San Diego Sports Arena that "not all change is good change." He’s hoping that his team can build on the chemistry it had last year in coming within two games of the NBA Finals. And with superstar Carmelo Anthony (25 years old), JR Smith (24) and Nene (27) ever-improving, Denver has the youngest core group of any competitive team, with the exception of…

Marc Stein, ESPN.com | Stein's picks
"Living up to last season's everything-went-right script ain't going to be easy. But I have to say that I'm surprised to hear how many folks see the Nuggets as one-hit wonders. Still the class of the Northwest Division to me."
Northwest: 1
West: 3
