Spurs vs Nuggets, round 1, pretty much a lock.

[T Park]

Yeah if Melo wants to shoot the threes, then the series would be easier than I thought.

Go ahead and chuck threes melo.

[NugzFan]

I'm pretty good at NOT being overly optimistic, which is what you are being. AI and Melo THREE POINT SHOOTERS??

they arent 3 pt shooters - but they can hit them. of course they wont sit out there and wait like a steve kerr. im not claiming that. but we have guys who CAN hit the shot. nice job with the spin.

besides, no team is great at everything. nor do we have to be.

AI is a ing slasher, he gets hot off of slashing and shooting short jumpers. Melo shoots in the 20% range for threes, he can have all the threes he wants.

already mentioned he doesnt shoot too many but he CAN hit them at times. thats all

Ok, maybe the Nuggets have a little chemistry, I'll give you that, but enough to beat the Spurs? I don't think so.

chemistry isnt enough to win or lose games. and no we wont be favored at all in the potential series but i would LOVE for the spurs to overlook us like 90% of the fans here. that would be the best.

he takes a whole 2 threes per game.

[T Park]

Then whats your point?

[NugzFan]

Then whats your point?

that melo can hit 3s at time. nothing amazing but he can hit em. and he doesnt jack up em either so it doesnt hurt the team.

Your coach would disagree. I just saw George Karl last night being interviewed for 30 minutes on the Chris Meyers (sp?) show and he said the one thing his team lacks is chemistry and that's really the only thing that separates the top teams from the next level of teams.

[NugzFan]

wow. we are playing this well without it? damn we are gonna be even better in the postseason as our chemistry improves! thanks for the good news.

[phyzik]

OK Nugz fan... Its going to be a HARD FOUGHT 4-1 or 4-2 series... there. thats about as good as it gets.

[mardigan]

yea, cause the playoffs are a great time to develop chemistry

I think you're playing fairly well right now. I'm not the one arguing with you. I was just forwarding what I heard Karl say last night. He still seemed to think his team had a decent chance at winning any series they played.

I think the Nuggets would have a great chance against the Rockets or Jazz. It's a shame that injury issues kept them from getting a 4 or 5 seed. I think the Spurs are just better and will not be looking past the Nuggets.

[I love Tony Parker]

yet another fan to file under "lives in the past and works on assumptions that dont even exist anymore)" - welcome to 2007.

its not assumptions its FACTS. do you actually think tha nuggets can beat tha spurs? I mean I know thats your team and all but damn!! please tell me HOW U THINK THEY CAN WIN!!!??? I guess truth hurts!!

Parker is quick and can go to tha hoop every time and score! He has a damn good jump shot!

Duncan is unstopable! even if he has a cold night he is going to get atleast 20+points and 10+boards (at least)

Bowen has tha D and his shooting is improving

Ginobili off tha bench is awsome its giving us that extra spark we want! He can score when you need em he can play tha D and has heart

now last but not least FINLEY!!! theese last games he is AWSOME!!! He can take tha 3 and actually MAKE THA 3!!

can I add we are tha hottest team since tha all star break?!! I will admit Denver is just getting a little spark BUT WE ARE ON FIRE BABY!!!

NO WAY NO HOW WILL DENVER BEAT US!! (UNLESS THA WHOLE TEAM GETS HURT!!)

[I love Tony Parker]

Lets see if Denver can beat Utah tonite? Utah will spank them tonite!! Do me a favor watch Denver play and watch tha Spurs play tonite and tell me if you still feel tha same?

[td4mvp21]

Seems like we get a new dumbass here before each postseason matchup every ing year. Welcome NugzFan .

[cambrad]

I would have thought Camby would be much better than Nene. Besides, Duncan destroyed pre-injury Nene, what has Nene learned in the pool the last couple of years?

No he didn't. In the 2005 series, we started Kenyon and Duncan sat on his face, even with the bum ankle. We brought Nene in off the bench and he did a much better job against Timmy... even got him three quick fouls in the first half a couple times. You just wait. It's almost definitely pretty much a near-lock right now.

And by the way, Camby is an incredible WEAK-SIDE defender, but his man-to-man defense leaves a lot to be desired. Nene will be matched up on Duncan.

[cambrad]

Are you 12?

lol you guys certainly are privileged. I don't underestimate the Spurs at all. You guys scare the crap out of me and there's no other team that I fear more. I'm just fighting for respect for the nuggets... not trying to diminish your greatness at all.

I hope we're the ones to knock you off your pedestal, whether it be this year or in the future.

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

Cam............ only 5% of the fans on here are realists who know it could be a tough series (which most Nuggets fans know it will be). The other 95% think it will be a sweep and that the Spurs will win 16 straight and get the le.

The series will be no less than 6 games.

I still can't believe you have 2,000 posts over here. The only reasonable spurs fan I see in this thread is T Park. He is the only one who sees that we're a little dangerous.

and he is the one who knows Frankie can wipe out the entire Nuggets team with one flying dutch arm

[ponky]

i'm looking forward to it...definitely won't be a sweep, maybe five....most likely six if 'melo can find a way to stop smiling and laughing whenever he makes a mistake and be serious....that smack he talked about playing the spurs won't help any

Carmelo didn't say that stuff.

[J.T.]

I think you meant to say no less than five. The Nuggets may be playing well now, but in this stretch how many times have they played the Spurs? Zero. It means jack. We've ended Detroit's winstreak twice this season, just recently brought Phoenix back to reality, and have proven that putting points on the board is not really a problem for us. No matter what Denver's gameplan is, we will slow them down, shut them down, outscore them, whatever it takes to win.

Don't be a fool.

Have been ever since 2005. Unlike Dean, I don't like talking to spurs fans any more than I have have to.
