I don't think Iverson is going to win a Chip in Denver.

It just seems too much like Philly but with just better options.

I think if the Nuggets changed their style of play and commit on defense they would be one Championship contenders

I've noticed over the years....AI teams with talent, never go as far as they should.

But in Philly with scrubs, he carried them.

It's weird

One of our biggest problems is that we don't have a consistent roster. Yesterday we had Melo back,but no camby or najera. Next game we will have melo, ai,camby, but no kenyon. And it's still up in the air when nene will be back. It's like we pick our roster from a lottery each game. We also stilldon't have a really good point guard, but carter does have his moments. Luckily this season we have kleiza stepping up and melo is rebounding to go withhis scoring (12 double-doubles on the season).

Defense, injuries, superior teams.

[Charles Barkley] I said it before and I'm going to say it again enver is not legit [Charles Barkley]

Bad chemistry.

We need a leader that can preach defense. They just haven't grasped the concept of stopping the other team from scoring. With all the athletic ability thissquad has, you would think it would be easy. In this case, I think it's Karl's fault.

 

[Mister Meaner]

I seriously think they need 2 things:

a) coaching change
b) go out and get nothing but defensive guys.

Just think, who was on the 2001 Philly squad that went to the Finals. AI and defensive players. Larry Brown FTW!

 

[japanair21]

They need a good PG. Not great, not all-star/superstar, just a good PG, a Mo Williams type PG.

[addict4sneakers]

it really all boils down to defense and staying healthy. also, they need to avoid the spurs. i think they can beat everyone else

but it can sometimes be the other way around...like Odom > L.Walton

If the Nuggets are a joke what does that make the Bulls?

what do the bulls have to do with this thread? we are talking about the nuggets, dont deflect... anyway the nuggets are full of selfish players that playindividual basketball and then they dont play defense either. Anytime you have melo, iverson, martin, and smith on the same team that will happen; a bunch ofchuckers looking to score on individual plays involving zero team chemistry. As a basketball fan, the only player Id want on my team thats on the nuggetsroster is camby.

I find it Ironic that a person with a Team Bulls sig is calling another team a joke.

 

[enlightened thought]

he just went crazy with his shot selection for some reason last year
what's new? the guy has had crazy shot selection his whole career.

just don't think the nuggets play enough defense to win. camby needs help.

 

[uknowmy m o]

The Defense has to step it up

My friend and I had the same discussion earlier... They should be really good, but it just doesn't work for some reason.
