http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/recap?gid=2007040907<span style="font-family:Arial">- Marcus Camby again had a horrible shooting game, but he still cleaned up on the boards all night long. He grabbed 22 rebounds (4th 20 reb game of the season) and blocked 7 shots.- Eduardo Najera provided a huge spark off the bench, scoring and rebounding the ball. Him and Marcus Camby both had great games rebounding on the offensive glass. I think people often overlook what Najera brings to our team off the bench. I couldn't believe he was being discussed in trade rumors during the trading deadline.- Carmelo Anthony got to the free throw line at will, he hit a few clutch free throws to give us the win. He always seems to have big games against the Lakers, he shoots the ball well.- Luke Walton was draining shots from 3 point land, he had an impressive game overall. I would love to have a guy like Walton on the Nuggets, the offense runs so smooth with Walton in the game.- We're finally getting our act together, I couldn't have predicted us to be on a 6 game winning streak at this point. The best thing about our streak is that we are winning all of our MUST win games. Defeating the Clippers and the Lakers twice was huge for us, we needed to win both of those games.</span>
Impressive streak by the Nuggets. Now imagine if they had been able to win at least half of those games that they gave away at home... they could have made a run at the division title, but I doubt they would have won it.I'm really excited to see what these guys can do next year, especially if Kenyon Martin returns healthy. Honestly, I can't wait to see Iverson's return to the playoffs.
Problem for the Lakers tonight was Kobe was having an off shooting night...even more so than Camby. Of course, Kobe started to make his shots down the stretch but he missed the biggest one at the end. The thing that killed us was the kick ball that took away the shot clock after that the Lakers scrembled and it changed the entire strategy. Kobe ended up taking the would be game tieing three pointer that was very deep and off balance..yet almost went in. But it didn't and we lost. Bynum was playing extremely well after half time but got in foul trouble and I thought the refs were being very ticky tacky with calls on both ends. Tough loss if you are a Laker fan. :/
I have to give it too the Lakers here they made a nice comeback and even took the lead at one point, but we wouldn't give it away like that.Camby was an animal on the boards.6 in a row baby!
F*ck Camby. It's that Linas Klazia, that mother *ucker turns into Michael Jordan every time they play the Lakers. I'd like to stab him 273 times in the throat with a ball-point pen.
Well it looks like we'll be facing the Suns again in the first round. I hope we can play together and wins some games like we did last year and this time hopefully win the series. Nothings impossible if you work hard to make it happen.

He gets to offense into a rythem which is un-common to see in bench players. Klieza is definetely a must keep for the Nuggets, he's a great fit off the bench for the Nuggets offense.

Wow that was a bs game.. Cook was fouled there at the end.. my gosh..O well I still see the Nuggets going 1-4 or 2-3 and Lakers finishing 3-1 or 4-0 getting the 6th seed

Unless we lose all and Lakers win all the chances of you getting the 6th seat is like 1%.You guys had a chance and you sucked we beat you 2 times in a row. Cook was not fouled by the way.Ow Yeah and if you want to win go tell all those scrubs to get the heck out of the way, and give the ball to Kobe and let him shoot 50 times and maybe you guys would win instead of letting Walton, Cook, ect take the shots.

LOLAnd no it's not it's the trueth they should give the ball to Kobe let him shoot 50 a game they got a better chance of winning that way nothing wrong with what I said cause it's true they need to tell Kobe to shoot more instead of all that crap about passing. He can get any shot crazy awsome fade away any shot he takes has like 70% of going in. Give him the ball and let him take 50 shots a game, and carry you to extra wins.
