Around SBN: Nevin Shapiro Vows To Bring Down Miami

2007-2008 Game 73: Nuggets/Warriors Game Thread

For the second game in a row we brace ourselves for the most important game of the year as Golden State thunders their way into the Pepsi Center.  

So far the Nuggets and Warriors have split their two games with the road team winning both times.  They play each other two more times and if one of them can capture both games that will almost guarantee them a spot in the playoffs.  Should Denver lose tonight, they will still be in a decent position to make the playoffs as long as Dallas continues to flounder, but they will put themselves in a very tough position in any attempt to catch Golden State.  It will make the game at the Roaracle in April another must win situation.  Not many teams go into Golden State and come out with a W.

Golden State posses some significant matchup threats for Denver and you can check out the Pickaxe and Roll Film Room for examples of how Golden State took advantage of the Nuggets in the previous game in Denver.

Look for big offensive nights from Carmelo Anthony, Allen Iverson and Kenyon.  This is also a game where J.R. Smith might have a shot at exploding as he should have plenty of open looks from long range.

Leave your thoughts below and keep the Dramamine nearby because you might come down with some motion sickness from how fast the cameras will be moving to keep up with tonight’s game.

Make sure you check out the preview over at Golden State of Mind.

Even Camby said this was the most important game of the year. I'm ready for my eyes to start burning with all the back and forth action.

>Hopefully a win<</p>

"Look for big offensive nights from Carmelo Anthony, Allen Iverson and Kenyon.  This is also a game where J.R. Smith might have a shot at exploding as he should have plenty of open looks from long range."

How prophetic.  Except for the AI part.  And the fact that J.R. didn't get his points from beyond the arc.  Still, a season high for K-Mart.

STIFF LIST (as of 2/7 by Andrew Feinstein)

1. THE NUGGETS AT HOME
How is it possible that a Nuggets team with this much talent can be 7-5 at home?! Things have gotten so bad that fans are clamoring for J.R. Smith to return.

2. CARMELO ANTHONY
Kobe Bryant plays through any and all ailments. Melo uses any and ailments as an excuse not to play.

3. KEVIN LOVE
Just when the T'Wolves are looking better, Love stomps on Luis Scola and lands himself a two-game suspension.

4. CHARLOTTE BOBCATS
The 'Cats have lost 11 straight and are now 3-21 ... in the Eastern Conference! This is what happens when you let an underwear salesman with a Hitler mustache run your team.

5. MIKE BROWN
Dr. Bunsen Honeydew (Google it!) got himself a one-game suspension for making contact with a referee.
