this is actually a huge game for me b/c i have nugs 25/1 and if they win here they would be 1 game up on HOU, but i dont even know tie breaker should that get back to a tie ... If NUgs get sea in first rd. I think they have great shot at winning least one series ... but playing spurs first is not my idea of picnic-rooting at my great odds for even hedging ...

so, I was thinking of betting HOU ML or -3.5, tho I think nugs have 50% at worst to win game (I believe Nugs have covered 20-3 ats of last 23!!) ... HOU nite off, Nugs travel, etc ... If i hedge for HOU some, I would least cover my Nugs stake for their futures should HOU win; if NUgs win I would be pretty happy anyway ... Karl has had to be pointing at this one for long time--he would LOVE TO PLAY SONICS in opening rd b/c they basically fired him (more on that later, but I have interviewed Karl b4 and he hates wally walker et al)

so you Hou/Nugs experts, who do you like in this one? I would expect a huge raucous crowd sat. nite?


thanx gregg

24-2 in last 26 su and 9-1 on rd is tuff to buck -- Gundy boring ball vs Karl speed it up, should be great one ... I really lean hard to Nugs ... last time they played Karl didnt coach (mid jan) and TMac had 45 and whipped Nugs by 18 in Denver .... possibly players recall that, their last bad loss ... and as Vonnegut once wrote, "Nothing so sweet as revenge." I do think HOU holds playoff tie breaker tho ... Nugs only 2 losses have been to PHX, and in game at PHX it was anyones games down 1 with 2 mins ...

yeah saw camby hurt his leg chasing down someone in open court, that REALLY sux huge for Nugs chances to get outta 7th place, its a shame ... I woulda given anything for Den to play Sea ... oh well, they needed to find a way to win one more somewhere else this year if they come up empty ...

Keep in mind, the Nuggets have way more heart than the Rockets. I wouldn't touch the Rockets with a 10 foot pole in this one.

i hope u guys are right, I love karl (i know lotsa people dont) but im telling you I have talked to lotsa big time people thru the years and hes down to earth and treated me as well as anyone ... I hope Nugs plug away and come outta HOU with the "W" ... afterall 25-2 isnt something that begs to be bet against!
