Nugs at Wolves 7:00 CST Sixers at Suns 8:00 CST I've always had a special place in my heart for nugs.
I will DEFINITELY be rooting for both teams tonight. I STILL BELIEVE!! I just step back and realize it's gonna take alot for the rocks to get in. Who am I to doubt this team though? They've proved me wrong on more than one occasion. THANK GOD McDyess is back. Garnett would have killed the Nuggets if he wasn't. ------------------ I hate role players [This message has been edited by tacoma park legend (edited March 23, 2001).]
PHOENIX (Ticker) -- The Philadelphia 76ers welcome coach Larry Brown back to the bench Friday night when they close a four-game road trip against the Phoenix Suns. Brown underwent tests on Monday in Philadelphia that confirmed he has acid reflux and a hiatal hernia. He was treated with medication for his condition and will be back on the sidelines Friday. Philadelphia also may return Allen Iverson to the lineup. Iverson has missed the last two games with a hip pointer as the 76ers fell to 3-2 without their All-Star guard. http://espn.go.com/nba/2001/20010323/preview/phipho.html
The Nuggets aren't helping. Down 27-18 in the second, with the Minny role players dominating. ------------------ Hakeem "The Dream" Olajuwon is the greatest player in the history of basketball. If you disagree, you are not a Rocket fan.
NUGS TAKE THE LEAD 32-31 4:35 left 2Q GO NUGS! 40-43 Wolves at the half. [This message has been edited by jamcracker (edited March 23, 2001).]
DAMN THAT VAN EXEL! Nugs hit a 3 to tie with 0:30 left in the third. Van Exel gets T'd for whining about a previous play. Whines some more, gets tossed. Damn. Wally Scz makes both T FTs.
Minnesota has just taken over the game. Phoenix is beating Philly. Its looking bleak. ------------------ Hakeem "The Dream" Olajuwon is the greatest player in the history of basketball. If you disagree, you are not a Rocket fan.
The Rockets will fall three games behind the Wolves after Denver's collapse tonight. Tomorrow's game is elevated to REALLY REALLY MUST MUST MUST WIN WIN WIN status. They can not afford to fall 3.5 games out. They are doomed if that happens. ------------------ Hakeem "The Dream" Olajuwon is the greatest player in the history of basketball.

If only Seattle had won yesterday. ------------------ Hakeem "The Dream" Olajuwon is the greatest player in the history of basketball. If you disagree, you are not a Rocket fan.
Still, if Philly wins tonight, and the Rockets win tomorrow, they will be only 1.5 back. They will then have an opportunity to gain a game when they avenge the Suns loss at home. Come on Philly, break that streak. There's still a chance. If only the Rockets had beaten the Clips. ------------------ Hakeem "The Dream" Olajuwon is the greatest player in the history of basketball. If you disagree, you are not a Rocket fan.
Go SIXERS! ZRB, The Suns will also play the Lakers before coming here next Thursday. ------------------
That's good. Philly down 5 in third! That isn't good. ------------------ Hakeem "The Dream" Olajuwon is the greatest player in the history of basketball. If you disagree, you are not a Rocket fan. [This message has been edited by ZRB (edited March 23, 2001).]
God, I didn't realize just how much the Rockets are still in it. Think, if Philly and La beat Phoenix, and the Rockets beat Seattle, it will be a 1 game difference. Then, if the Rockets beat Utah (slim chance), they will be a half game back. Then, the Rockets will play Phoenix with a chance to TAKE the 8th seed. If the Rockets lose to Utah, they will still have an opportunity to tie. We just need to hope that Philly and LA beat Phoenix. AND THE ROCKETS NEED TO BLOODY WELL BEAT SEATTLE TOMORROW DAMMIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Phoenix up 9, dammit! Okay, this makes the Utah game must-win as well.

just to be fair, even wolves fans were telling us how glad they were to get all the calls that game. we were screwed. we tied the game at 64 after being down double digits, then the refs decided enough was enough and made the wolves win. ------------------ the nuggets suck...i know, i know!
