    Oh I understand. I feared the same thing. But it still made the end of the 1st exciting.

    Watching all of January's games only taught me that our defense is terrible.

    That is not a recipe for long-term success. Can’t play with this lack of defense and win with any consistency.

    You rarely see defense this bad at the pro level.

    What's the record of most points by a team in a half? The Nuggets can't be far from it.

    Wide open comfortable shots for Denver. I wouldn't mind seeing Tucker traded.

    It's amazing what a team can do when its number 5-7 players are competent.

    Simple reality is this:
    1) no one is a good perimeter defender
    2) no one can protect the rim
    3) no one outside of faried is a food rebounder

    You can start by playing defense.

    I don't know about you guys, but I'm beginning to think we might need a bit of defensive help.

    I know we've had injuries, but what happened to defensive genius Jeff Bzdelik?
