I'm not watching so can you confirm that KD hit game-tying 3s near the end of regulation and basically at the end of the 1st OT? Were they lucky or in form?
basically in form. the first i think he came off a pick and just caught and turned right on the 3 point line and it swished. in OT they threw him the ball about 29 feet from the basket with either martin or camby pretty close to him and he just pulled up right there and it was a swish.
I'm a huge KD fan and this is music to my ears. His horrific game against us was an aberration from how he's performed the last two months.
man iverson has sucked from the end of regulation through this OT. may be costing the nugs the playoffs. iffy travel call on jeff green there. but a carry on kleiza right after. i think the season tally on nuggets/sonics points is up to 1028 right now.
It seems Denver is losing the game vs Sonics, in the 2nd OT, their defense is too bad, I agree JVG will help those guys.
wow good game. I am starting to like Durant more and more. He has to bulk up a lil though. He is too lean to play in the NBA. First 3 at the end of regulation was a catch and shoot off a pick. 2nd one, it was atleast 4-5ft behind the arc!
He was 2 for 17 against us. Barkley has no idea of what he was talking about when he said Denver will beat Hornets. Are you kidding me.
He has really raised it up since February, which is where most rookies hit the wall. The silly shots and crazy number of 3 pointers he used to take are long gone. When KG puts on a few pounds and develops more strength, the guy will be scary. His arms remind me of KG as a rookie.
Nuggets defense is a joke, literally. This is the most under archived team in the league. Heck, Nuggets have the 3rd highest payroll and they might not even make the playoffs. Both the GM and coach have to go. This is a shame!
They dont really have defensive personnels outside Camby, who is overrated IMO. Nerja may be a one, but he isnt that good either defensively. You look at their roster, it makes scratch your head, ton of egoes, iso after iso, giving up on defense too easy. Their defense feeds their offense, and if their offense doesnt get going, there goes their defense. There has to be major roster change next year.
look at their team they have a bunch of athletic freaks out there it is about the mental aspect of defending. They could lockdown if they had a clear desire for it. I agree that this offseason they could get a few bench defensive minded roleplayers. it would help them a lot.
