    The main problem: Voshon Lenard didn't score. 7 points from him is not going to cut it.

    Nice to see Melo bounce back from an 8 point game, lets see if he can have back to back good games, because in December his good games were sandwiched between awful shooting performances.

    We all were. It's not like the new Nuggets to lose to the Hawks well anybody can win so you never know.

    Denver seems to be coming back down to earth. Hopefully they can pick up their play soon. Every team goes through these dry spells.

    It didnt surprise me at all we suck against Eastern Conference teams thats a simple fact, not to mention we had lost to the Hawks earlier in the season.

    Funny how true that is. A Western conference team that can beat pretty much any team in the West (Lakers got lucky...) and one of the top teams in the East (New Orleans), but can't beat anyone else...

    The Nuggets hang tough with the powerhouse's. My guess is they don't take the weak teams seriously. Thats not good. SHOW NO MERCY DENVER!!!

    Historically, the Nuggets have always had trouble beating Atlanta. Not really a suprise.
