Nuggets optimistic A.I. is the long-term answer

Allen Iverson wasn't 'The Answer' in the short-term. His presence couldn't prevent the Denver Nuggets from getting bounced in the first round of the playoffs for the fourth straight season.

The problem is the point guard. JR Smith in my opinion is not worth what he is being paid. Why you got rid of Boykins is beyond me. He is much better and is reliable on his 3 point shots. Proof is he made Milwaukee a much better team.

I like how the nuggets use different reasons why they couldnt event get out the first round. They had plenty of time to gel together. Once the nuggets realize they have no defense(other than Marcus Camby), then they might be able to get passed round 1 of the playoffs. AI is not the answer, "DEFENSE" is.

JR Smith is a shooting guard first off, but then also the boykins trade was a great trade. Hes a scoring guard and we dont need more scoring. Steve blake is perfect for the team cause he sets up players so well.

They played great against the Spurs,including defensivley, but they will get better as they play more together. At this point the spurs are just a better team. The Nuggets can play exellent defense when they dont go through lapses. Robert Horry himself said the Nuggets would probably be a 1,2, or 3 seed next year if they kept it together. You dont understand the power of a team that has played together for years like the Spurs, especially one so hot since the All-Star Break as well as one always primed for the playoffs.

Don't forget the first game ( http://nbasketnews.com/node/660 ), when Nuggets outperformed Spurs.
