    That's a character building win. Winning a back to back on the road against a good Denver team is fantastic!

    Wow, we're chokejobs, win is a win, but we're not moving out of first round if we can't beat down teams when they're down 19.

    It wasn't a pretty game, but we won. Those free throws need work.

    at least Yao got some rest today. haha

    Terrible win, but a win. Champ Bailey was sighted talking to Chauncey Billups. ;)

    Great Win!!! I am glad the team pull through. Yao needs to make this game up this Wednesday. He would have felt bad if the team would have lost because of that sixth foul on Billups.

    Denver are far worse than the sucking Rockets.

    Breaking news: Denver officials plant air vents on top of backboard to sway Rocket's free throws.


    I am speechless. If we lost this game, our team could have collasped out of the playoff picture. I mean you can ridicule me for saying that, but that was a HUGE WIN.

    For a back to back away game. I am impressed by the win. Don't even try to relate this performance to a play off game as there is no back2back games.

    The competition does matter you know, this was the #3 team in the west for most of the season. A lot of the calls were legit and Yao fouled out, scola fouled out, that's minus two starters in the last 2:30. Did we make some mistakes? Of course we did, but it wasn't a collapse.

    We made our last 4 FTs, so that was the key.

    again, free throws are the keys to winning a basketball game...

    if we shoot likes this on wednesday? against the lakers? we are not going to win, (unless they play bad like right now against portland down 20)

    yao....please no dumb fouls...

    IMO, we have to thank Shane and Chuck for this win.

    Oh,we win...
    What's wrong with our freethrows?
    We can win easier if we make our FTs
