Re: Nuggets up by 22 at half! Yeah, 0-15 my ass we are playing amazing! Andre has 20 at half and Camby has 10 points and 12 rebounds all defensive. We got out early in the first and have held the lead. We are forcing lots of turnovers and that is getting us out on the fast break which we need to do to play good.
Re: Nuggets up by 22 at half! the Only reason this is happening IMO, is because this Wizards team is tired from last night. Arenas, Butler and Jamison all played hard and had big games last night. Plus it went into OT. I still credit Denver for being able to get this done.

I play hours every day and I don't get tired the next day. Just wondering..

That can wear anyone out and carry on into a day.
Re: Nuggets up by 22 at half! Haters, we won this as a team against a really good team, what makes us not to do this again and again?

Just imagine running a complete dead sprint for an hour, except everyone would still be faster than you.

That's pretty aggressive.Even though we won this game, I'm not feeling very confident. We have no consistent offense scorers at the moment. The odds of Andre Miller and Earl Boykins combining for 56 points again is low. Marcus Camby had a MONSTER GAME. 25 points, 17 rebounds, 7 blocks.
Re: Nuggets up by 22 at half! Camby is gong to have to lead the team. I will be really happy if we go 5-5 without JR and when JR comes back 3-2 without 'Melo. Although the odds of this happening are low, if we pull it off we will show that we have scoring without 'Melo and JR for the most part.
Re: Nuggets up by 22 at half! Good win by the Nuggets, they have a great bench.. Boykins always kills us. Camby played great, one of my favorite players. Haywood should have realized right at tip off that he needs to guard Camby at the top of the key. He can HIT those, no matter how ugly his shot is. While it was a good win by Denver, give a little credit to the Wizards. We were down by 30 at one point and cut it all the way to 2 pts. Too bad we didnt win it, but to almost overcome that is pretty amazing (especially coming off a long, tough overtime win against LA). Congrats on AI, btw. :dribble:
