Denver Golden After All These Years

I was right when I said that Denver was not to be overlooked. The Denver Nuggets have capped their first Playoff Series since 1994. Carmelo Anthony for the first time in his career is moving pass the first round with the help of Chauncey Billups, no doubt. Not taking anything away from Allen Iverson, but he was more into playing and getting paid than winning a ball game. Chauncey happens to be a native of Denver if you didn't know, anyways they say a picture is worth a thousand words but in this case a video is worth a million. The Nuggets held Chris Paul to 4 points in Game 4...can you believe that 4 points, damn. The Hornets made history though, they had the worst Playoffs lost since 1956 when the St. Louis Hawks lost to the Minneapolis Lakers by 58 points, they too lost by 58 points. You think that was any better they went down 21 points in Game 5. It was a tough series technical fouls were being issued like it was personal fouls...I bet Jerry Sloan wish he was coaching these guys cuz they were as tough as they come.


The Cavs swept the Pistons, no surprises there. Lakers beat the Jazz 4-1 and Jerry Sloan was mad as hell, literally. Dallas beat the Spurs 4-1, while Houston sent the Trailblazers home 4-2. Orlando whopped the Sixers without Dwight Howard who was suspended from elbowing Samuel Dalembert, surprisingly though Sixers Andre Miller thought the Magic played better without him....ironic ain't it. Atlanta is heading into game 6 with a 3-2 lead over Miami, while the Bulls (who like the Atlanta last year) is taking the Celtics for a game 7 after last night triple overtime win.

I told you the Playoffs are excited and that to always expect the unexpected. It's the NBA where the amazing happens. I can't wait for round 2.....I hope it's as excited and entertaining as round 1.
