Last night's game was impressive. Galli proved his worth. I know the Nuggets are good, but does anyone think we are lacking one more piece to be considered a top contender in the West?

You guys are missing dat boi Swish

. He's about to come through and put the team on his back in March.
 
I think the team is a contender as presently constructed. My only concern with not having a superstar is a lack of respect from the refs come playoff time. Our team loves to attack the rim but last year's run should me that we aren't getting those calls without a superstar. Refsbrook and OKC did the same thing the Nuggz do but they lived at the FT line and we didn't.

Aside from Gallo and sometimes Nene/Al no one else attacks the rim to finish strong. And Gallo is the only one who draws contact and actually sells it. Especially now with the way the refs aren't as quick to bail guys out.

#Nuggets reserve guard @Rudy5Fernandez (Achilles') is listed as a game-time decision for Friday.




AFFLALO UPDATE: #Nuggets shooting guard @Arron_Afflalo (groin) is listed as doubtful for Friday vs. Toronto.
 
CBA players can sign as soon as Feb 16th.  SA and LAC are looking at Kmart

I will Stone wasn't so hesitant on offense because his defense/hustle looked good against SAC
 
A win is a win but this game reminds me of the Utah game except we won. SMH
 
The perimeter defense is the main problem. 
Rudy was ballin while getting torched on the other end. Affalo still stinking it up.

@ Harrington using Rudy as a battering ram.

edit -shot selection tonight was

AAA is playing bad and this team doesn't play hard in games they know they should win at home.
 
They do come out flat against lower level teams. Tonight's first half, the effort wasn't too bad. The second half, though, the squad definitely looked complacent.
 
LAC on Sun then MEM on Tues
off Wed

Back to back to back with LAC,LAL,POR 

The real test is here

Definitely going to be a tough stretch this week.

The back-to-back-to-back is Road-Home-Road, too.

You'd think with it being Clippers-Lakers-Blazers the Nuggets could've been given 2 games in LA. But, no... play in LA against the Clips, then fly to Denver to play the Lakers the very next night. Thanks, NBA.
 
I think if everyone gets healthy I think the team's depth will allow the schedule to work to our advantage.
 
Excited about tonight's game. I expect George Washington High's Finest to have a great game but hopefully the guys come to play. This next stretch is critical.
 
Awesome ovation for Billups! Nice of him to still dap up with everybody at the scorer's table and some fans.

I think Ty being out will hurt tonight.
 
Nene is so talented. Dude is so skilled in the post when he wants to be.
 
I can't stand watching DeAndre Jordan. He's never committed a foul, and never goaltends shots (according to himself).

I thought Blake was defended great, got to clamp down on Chauncey.
