Season Over - Nuggets No-Show Game 6
Written by Nick Sclafani

(Denver-CO) I can't believe it. The Denver Nuggets, with their season on the line, didn't even show up in elimination game six at home. I'm pretty disappointed right now (as probably is the rest of the Nuggets Nation) with the effort, not the loss, that the Nuggets put forth against the Lakers in a, 119-92, shellacking.

Here's the skinny on game six. The Nuggets reverted back to an older version of their team that likes to shoot jump shot after jump shot and on too many occasions the Lakers looked like they were shooting around in an empty gym. One both ends of the floor the Nuggets didn't play complimentary basketball and it was ugly to watch. At halftime, L.A. was shooting 60% from the field compared to Denver's 36%. Furthermore, the Lakers won every quarter of game six by at least three points and finished with three 20+ point scorers including 35 points by Kobe Bryant.

The largest lead in the first half was eleven and for the game the Nuggets trailed by as many as 29. Ouch.

Up next on the Nugg Doctor will be a little reflection on the 2008-09 season as a whole and player report cards from top to bottom of this roster. It was a great run, Nuggets Nation. Too bad it had to end on such a downer.

Congratulations to the Lakers. I will be rooting for them in the Finals while thinking about what might have been...

One more battle cry in defeat - Go Nuggets!

Ballhype: hype it up!

Hey Nugg Doctor...chin up. The Nuggets are a great team with a future. This was an awesome season. Sure, they didn't go all the way but not everyone can make every shot or win every game.

People keep telling me "Denver is a very good team but LA is a great team." So much for humans being rational. If LA was so much better than Denver why did this series go six games? In the end, the big guys of LA kept Denver out of the game.

The players on Denver were awesome to watch this season. Great job guys! I look forward to next season.

I'll be rooting for the Magic... I want nothing more than Kobe to go home unhappy.

At least JR showed up... he'll be starting next year if Karl has a brain in his head. A recent article claimed as much, but he better not pull the rug on him again.

Go Magic! It looks like Orlando is re-evaluating Jameer Nelson and he may play in the finals.
