Note to all Bucks backers....

[No coincidences]

You can't cap 3-for-25 from 3 against a bad defensive team.

You just can't.

[vyomguy]

Maggette looks like Jordan out there. Bucks for the win. Mark it down a W.

Nuggets wanted this game more.

[No coincidences]

To all bucks backers...keep in mind these things:-

1> Lot of guys are injured for bucks now...1-2 starters might be out today.
2> Bucks are not a great offensive team...they cant keep up with the pace of denver.
3> Denver is pissed at the latest losses and will come out firing.
4> This might be the last game for Carmelo as a Nugget.

I like denver in this spot...but looks like several people in this forum including sj and nocoin are on bucks. Just a warning before you guys go big on bucks.

These didn't even happen. Look at the final score.

Do you want a Attaboy? Where were you when the Warriors raped the Hornets?

As I said...the only way bucks can win is if they outscore nuggets...defensively they cant stop nuggets...so they had to be red hot from field to win this game. Expecting that from one of the worst offensive teams in the league in too much. Plus injuries didnt help either.

Actually considering the Nuggets usual scores and Melo going big again the Bucks did a good job defensively and no other Nuggets player really killed them tonight

What?



This game was played to Milwaukee's pace. If the Bucks tried to run, they would've been run out of the gym.

They were 3-for-25 from 3. Period.

I didnt open a thread about warriors. It was not a strong lean...it was a mid size bet.

I opened a thread about nuggets coz I had a strong lean on them.

I dont care what you guys think to be honest. Just helping some of the folks here who were betting huge on this game.

The final score says Nuggets won by 7 points.

No need in arguing guys. Denver backers are just way smarter. Denver backers knew that the Bucks would shoot 3/25 from 3pt. Denver backers also knew when Milwaulkee was up 5 pts late in the 4thQ that the Bucks would lose 17-5 to end the game and not make a FG in the final 5 mintues of the game. I guess it was Denver's strong defense. It is what it is. Congrats Nuggs backers.

Nuggets were up by 11 mid way through the 3rd quarter...how come you forgot to mention that .

The point is runs by teams happens...both teams went on big runs.

As I said...nuggets wanted it more.

3/25 is nothing to be surprised by bucks...as I said they are one of worst offensive teams in the league.

The Denver Box of Chocolates. That just works on so many levels too, how can you not love that.

[vyomguy]

My favorite reason is "this might be Carmelos last game"

Demens...I keep owning you day in and day out in this forum. Seriously...you need to stop embarrassing yourself everyday. Take your trolling time off to do some handicapping.

It's not that I went huge on this game... In fact I had nuggets.... But nuggets wanted it more is a dumb statement....they are all pros...if anything home team wants it more for their fans but the ball went in more for the visitors....

Have you watched recent games by nuggets?....they have shown no heart and just give up....carmelo and billups were pissed off about this. This game they fought hard until the end...thats what I meant by "they wanted it more".

Vyom, I am glad you won your bet but better bizz is right. It had absoultely nothing to do with the Nuggets wanting it more. If anything the Bucks wanted it more. How many teams hold Denver to 94 pts??? The Bucks missed wide ass open shots all nite long. The shitty nuggets team you cashed with tonite was just not as inept or incompetent as the Bucks so you won. Denver played the same "phantom" no defense they play every game that other teams were torching for 110 pts a nite the last 5 games. The difference is the Bucks were to inept to make a wide open shot. The score and pace of this game had the Bucks written all over it. Congrats for winning.

Did you not say defensively, they can't stop the Nuggets?

How many points did Denver score?

Again, this game was played at Milwaukee's paced. They just missed a ton of open looks. The fact that you think the Bucks' only chance would've been if they tried running with them says all there is to say about your take on this game. You may have won the bet, but your analysis was way off.

Go look at my comment #1 and see how I am way off.

The pace wasnt exactly played in bucks pace. Besides the 4th quarter...all of the first 3 quarters were played at a good pace...they scored 142 points in first 3 quarters...how is that bucks pace?

Denver scored 94 points...but nene was in foul trouble all throughout the game...if he was in the game they would have scored way more points...why do you think bogut got 20 rebounds?...denver couldnt buy a offensive rebound without nene.

The fact that you still think bucks actually stopped nuggets says all there is to say about your take on this game. You have lost the bet, and your analysis is way off too.

Now go back to more posting .

And just 89 pts in a half until Salmons got hot in the third

That is much more Bucks pace than Nuggets

[Pauulzcappin]

Carmelo scored 38 and Denver scored 94 total. You were way off pal, congrats on the win though.

How is that different from any other denver game . As I said, If nene wasnt in foul trouble they would have put up lot more points....and bogut wouldn't have had 20 rebounds. It wasnt bucks "defense" that stopped denver...it was denver's second best player being on foul trouble that stopped them from scoring more points.

Did you watch the game?

Afflalo, Billups even JR Smith were non existent tonight

It wasn't just Nene being out, the Nuggets as a whole didnt have much going on. Melo took 30+ shots

At the end of the day though you were on the right side
