And props to Dice for the great hustle and rebounding and Gary Neal for career high points.
Denver Nuggets 115, San Antonio Spurs 112
by Jesse Blanchard
48 Minutes of Hell
Last night the new-look Denver Nuggets welcomed the San Antonio Spurs to the other side of the coin–a nod to the theory that games decided in the last minute tend to be 50-50 propositions.
This time, there were no Manu Ginobili heroics to pull the Spurs through, as the shooting guard took and missed two tough shots that could have pulled the Spurs even. For you at home, the night was either highly entertaining—given the pace and flow of the game—or extremely frustrating, again, given the pace and flow of the game.
Giving up 115 points on over 50 percent shooting from the field and the three-point line, and yet somehow having an opportunity at the end, will do that.
But what the game had in entertainment value, it lacked in context. At this point in the season games, recaps, and opinions are given with the playoffs in mind and in this game there were no playoff implications. This game stands alone to be enjoyed or lamented for what it is, and then left behind in muck of an 82-game season.

Notes on a scorecard: No Duncan, big worries to start road trip
Tim Griffin
Tim Duncan was back home in San Antonio Wednesday night watching his team play while he attempts to recover from a sprained left ankle.
The Spurs missed their captain against Denver in a multitude of ways.
Their defense struggled and they seemingly didn’t have enough minutes from his replacements to cover all game situations.
The result led to some ragged play in the fourth quarter that enabled the surging Nuggets to claim their eighth straight home victory.

so let me get this straight. the 70 games or so per year the spurs get all teh calls and the refs go unnoticed or were fine.
we get a couple calls (even though there were bad calls both ways) and now the refs were to blame? hah.
no offense but sean calling out bad calls doesnt mean anything.Quote:

If Duncan had played they only needed to foul two fewer times to win the game.Quote:
