Spurs v. Nuggets game 2

G_M

Starter
Denver with 32 points at the half!:eek: 63-32 Spurs.

Think San Antonio may have felt the need to prove a point?

Just underscores the notion that momentum in the playoffs does not exist and every game is unique.
 
Also underscores the point that if San Antonio gets serious there may be nobody who can stop them this year.
 
If Duncan's timing and health stay solid they can be champs. But if not, things could get ugly soon.
 
Not much of a "game". However, interesting to see how DunCan Can dunk, in other words, if he can stay healthy. I have never concidered him the most durable player ever...
 
That's what happens when you talk trash, and fire up a monster like the spurs. They deserved to get pounded for talking ****

Same goes for the wizards, they talked trash and it did them no good.
 
Spurs made 10 3pters vs 3 for the Nuggs.. That was the main difference in the game

I didn't watch it but I assume Bowen was on Melo. Melo only had 10 tonight.
 
Pretty strong rumors that Bowen is going to be named Defensive Player of the Year. Can't wait for the mass hysteria if that happens.

there is no Ofensive Player of the Year award...why?....why defense?....i don't like players like b wallace or bowen.....no talent no skills only body....and over-over-overrated

 
There are quite a few players in this league that can consistently score 20+ points per game. There are very few players that can consistentlly hold these 20+ point scorers well below their scoring average, particularly defenders capable of defending multple positions.

When you have a player you can pretty much count on taking away an opponent's key scorer, one that the other team's offense largely revolves around, that defensive player is worth solid gold. Hardly overrated.

Did anyone notice Pop inserting Barry into the starting lineup istead of Manu. Interesting move that seemed to payoff. That is why Pop is one of the greatest.
 
Bowen should get Dirtiest Player of the Year award only to be beat out by Danny Fortson by 2 votes.

Spurs are a much better team than Denver.....Spurs in 6.



"The flavor of the week" Nuggets will be over soon.

it was more like "the flavor of 8 weeks" nuggets. ya gotta give the team credit, man. they were playing some seriously good ball after the all star break. obviously, san antonio is a superior team. there's no doubt about it. but i dont expect denver to roll over and go away, either. that said, i still love rootin for an underdog, so go denver!
 
I respect how well the Nuggets played to close it out, but they're just not on the same level as the Spurs. I think there was a basic overreaction when they won Game 1 of people thinking the Spurs were in serious trouble.


I would like to see the Nuggets win, but I'm positive the Spurs will.
 
I dislike both teams equally, but if Nuggets win, Kings get homecourt in the 2nd round, so I'm rooting for them. This, of course, is assuming the Kings realize that the playoffs started already.

Oh, and I hate Robert Horry. Go Nuggets!
