So the Nuggets bench is better than the Spurs bench?

[41times]

Mean while back to the topic of the thread.

I agree that the Spurs bench is weak and will eveuntually be their achilles vs. Dallas.

But the fact that the Spurs have Timmy, Parker, Manu and Pop will offset whatever the Nuggs can throw their way.

Super Bowl 32 and 33 .. hmmm



edit: whoops... 31 and 2

You obviously covet those SB les so much you cannot even remember which years they were in. Bravo.

I don't think you want to compare Denver's SB history with the Cowboys... you'll lose.

As for the Spurs, we're perinnially ranked in the Top 5 franchises in all of sports. Be jealous.

Manu is better then any player the Nuggets can bring off the bench and it's not even close. Even if you consider him a starter and trade him out with Finley then Fin is still better then any Nuggets bench player. How deep into his bench does Pop usually go come the playoffs? 8 maybe 9. Who else comes off the bench? Horry's probably washed up by now but you can't discount the clutch factor. Barry is probably as good as anybody off the Denver bench. Not sure who else is there but I think the Spurs have a huge edge in the 6th man spot and are atleast equal in the 7th & 8th man spots.

The Nuggets will probably only go 9. Najera, Kleiza, JR & Evans. Najera & Evans are just hustle players nothing to write home about but they serve their purpose well. JR & Kleiza are their shooters. They'll be in there to try to spread the floor for AI & Melo.

bottom line...if the nuggets score 200 points a game they win...end of story

Phonz, no offense but, make some ing sense or STFU because you are seriously uttering incoherent BS and no one knows what you're talking about. We're not talking about football, we're talking about basketball so get behind your team and stop with the rambling because you're a better poster than that.

kthx.

Yeah, i was reading back and I was being a prick. sorry guys

Denver might be more committed to defense now than they were earlier this year, but they are still only 3-23 when they fail to score 100 points. That would suggest to me that they aren't exactly capable of locking teams down and winning games when they struggle to score the basketball. Likewise, Denver has held opponents under 100 points only 28 times this season.

By contrast, the Spurs allowed 100 points only 14 times all season (2 of those 14 were games against Phoenix; another 2 of those were the last 2 games of the season when Duncan, Parker, and Ginobili didn't play). The Spurs are 2-12 in games in which their opponents score 100+. By contrast, the Spurs are 33-4 in games in which they score 100.

Controlling and dictating tempo will likely be the decisive factor in the series.

Denver was 2-0 in sub 100pt games in April. Perhaps an upward trend?

So, Phonzie... Been hitting the old Hennessy again?
