You can find good and bad in almost any situation. Tonight’s Nuggets close blowout was no different. The bad news is the Nuggets completely lost their defensive integrity, not individually, but as a team. The good news is I have LeBron James and Chauncey ...

... Pickaxe and Roll: “The Nuggets did not hedge off of screens and as a result they allowed open jumpers and unfettered drives into the lane. They were almost always a step or two slow on their rotations and they just flat out lacked intensity on defense. I realize that the Nuggets are not going to turn our 82 straight strong defensive games and if this had happened in New Jersey on the second half of a back to back in late January we could write it off as a bad night. For it to happen in the eighth game of the season in front of a national television audience, well, that ...
