Boys in Da Yard

Playoff basketball or playground basketball? This is the question that the entire Nuggets squad needs to ask themselves. After getting beat by 10 in LA on Sunday, the Nuggs have a two day break to learn how to play D.

Critics of the Nuggs continue to bash the defense, or lack thereof, as this year’s playoffs kick off, calling us the Enver Nuggets (notice that there is no D in Denver, haha).

Personally, I think that we just needed to see how the Lakers run their offense, and that we’ll step up the D next game. All that really needs to happen is a split in the first series of games in LA, and then let those Lakers come to our house, where we only lost 9 games this season.

Three things need to happen for Denver to be successful in this first playoff round:
Keep the points coming
Stop Kobe, make the others beat you
Stay hot off the bench, put in the RAINMAKER!
