    So are we giving Billups as much credit for this win, as he was getting blame for the losses? Not sure how this works. Somebody on here said it was HIS fault when Nurk shits the bed…..so I would assume he gives credit for Nurk’s play tonight right?

    Stotts would never double stars. We doubled Luka from the jump. Defensive scheme helped the offense tonight.

    I swear Luka is the WHINIEST player in the league. He whines more than Chris Paul. He lead the league in Techs last season.

    I certainly did. Cuz I certainly did blame him for those losses. To me it's his fault that the offense bogs down and we have too much one-on-one play. That didn't happen tonight because for one we played a different brand of Defense that led to 24 fast break points. But also, we never held the ball for too long so the defense can stay still. There was ball movement and player movement all game and that I attribute to Chauncey Billups. The lack thereof in the previous five losses I also attribute to Chauncey Billups.
