No doubt Phoenix would've wiped the floor w/ the Nuggets last night. Denver will have AI for the makeup game and/or Carmello back, depending on when they schedule it.Related news.. (I see no one else posted about this in the Suns forum)Phoenix Suns won their 15th straight against Toronto on Tuesday.
It was posted by me in General NBA but then moved to the Nuggets forum since they were the ones with the snow.<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Suns game postponedBy Jerry Brown, TribuneDecember 20, 2006The Suns made it into Denver early Wednesday morning, just before Mother Nature dumped more than two feet of snow into the downtown area. But their game with the Nuggets was postponed as a safety precaution to Pepsi Center staff and fans.Related LinksSuns win club-record 15th straight gameSportsPhoenix Suns / NBAThe game will be rescheduled for a later date, and Suns coach Mike D?Antoni said sometime in March is likely.?There?s nothing you can do about it. It?s a real mess here and it?s the right thing to do,? D?Antoni said. ?We?re trying to get a restaurant open so we can get some food tonight.?Denver International Airport was shut down Wednesday and isn?t expected to reopen until noon Thursday.

Stars Carmelo Anthony and J.R.

lol wow, I heard that tomorrow's game might be canceled also because the Denver airport is closed until tomorrow afternoon. This is starting to tick me off.
http://suns.marqui.com/blog/suns01_12210603.aspxTom LeanderOkay, here is the latest from Denver. I just finished chatting with Head Athletic Trainer (and travel coordinator) Aaron Nelson, along with Mike D'Antoni. The Denver airport is closed until Friday at noon.At that time we hope to bus to the airport and then wait for our plane. It will be a waiting game as we then are staring at the possibility of arriving just in time for the game against the Wizards(luckily it's an 8:30 p.m. tip), depending on when we can fly out of here.There are thousands of stranded commercial travellers who are now being bussed to hotels. Many of them are now coming here to The Westin. Due to the endless snowdrifts over the last 24 hours, planes are covered with snowbanks of up to five feet at the airport.The team is hoping to bus over to The Pepsi Center for a shootaround in about an hour. Unfortunately the bus driver is now trying to dig-out of a snow bank himself. The Suns may actually be working out with members of the Nuggets who are scheduled to have a light workout themselves.There was actually conversation about still trying to get the game in tonight! The NHL contest set for this evening has now been cancelled as well. That led to talk of trying to get the Suns and Nuggets together, but again travel complications and logistics with the State of Emergency squelched that idea.Will keep in touch as plans change by the minute. The adventure continues from the Rockies...
