"We got to the point where we stopped moving the ball and got individualized," Denver coach Jeff Bzdelik said. "We had guys try to be the hero, and that's when it gets worse. We were outclassed from the opening tip." Star rookie Carmelo Anthony added 10 points and nine rebounds but shot just 3-of-12 and sat out the fourth quarter with the game out of hand. "It was hard with (Latrell) Sprewell on me. He was denying me the ball," Anthony said. "Then if I got it, you've got KG in the middle clogging that up. Then you got to one side, and you've got Mad Dog (Mark Madsen) on that side and Trent on the other. Everywhere you go, you've got somebody with you." Without starting power forward Nene, who was out with a strained left groin, and center Marcus Camby in constant foul trouble, Denver was outscored in the paint 40-18. "We missed Nene a lot -- we need a strong guy to defend KG and Trent -- and his rebounding as well, and his finishing inside," Tskitishvili said. "We have some shooters outside, but we need somebody to play strong inside." </div> Full Story Box Score <font size="1"><font color="Gray">KG Slams Denver</font></font>
Spree can be a damn good perimeter defender when he puts the effort in. Poor shooting night from KG but that's still a nice statline. Nice to see Skita have a reasonable game too, the kid does have talent
That is promising to see Skeeta producing with his time on court...He has all the talent there as mentioned.I think people have suddenly forgot about him....Which could help having less pressure.
Melo is now shooting .349% from the field, I would just hate to see what the critics would be saying if James was shooting like that. Boykins being 3-12 as well did not help, same for Lenard going 3-10.
As I mentioned a while back unless the Nuggets get their fast break going by getting easy points from lay-ups and dunks they will likely always struggle from the field.Mainly when they are on the road....
