    Default Nuggets at Trail Blazers: In-game Thread

    The Denver Nuggets (1-0) visit the Portland Trail Blazers (1-0) tonight. The Nuggets beat the Jazz comfortably at home last night, whereas the Trail Blazers won a home over the Rockets two nights ago.

    Portland is currently an 8 point favorite, O/U is 200. Post your picks and thoughts.

    Got Portland -7 (+106) early here. I expect Denver to be a bit gassed after last night's game; Portland also looks to be an improved team; I think Denver may be riding off of their playoff run last year. They're still solid, just maybe not as good as some think. The Blazers are 37-8 SU in their last 45 home games. Denver was 21-20 last year on the road.

    Wow, Oden pushes Nene and no foul for an easy put back. Melo the only one balling for Denver.

    Take the fckin ball to the paint Denver and stop fckin shooting rocks from down town. Shocking on defensive rebounds. Its early but they look bush whacked from last nights game and travelling.

    Oden is a bum. All he does is rebound and slam dunks.

    Agreed... Settling for too many jump shots.

    Nice start Mac very good call on 1st quarter lets hope they keep it up. It looks like my over is shot, but if the spread and ML hit I will still be happy.

    So does Greg Oden have any potential at this point? I'm thinking he may have a chance at a Dikembe Mutumbo type mold, solid on D, not much aside from easy dunks and such on the offensive side.

    Well defense is a much harder skill to develop so to speak. He is going to be solid on that end like Dikembe, but he could develop an offensive skill set and become a true beast. He still has to work on his fouls he commits to many a game.

    Refs are sucking off Portland right now. Everything going their way. Same shit as last year. home cooking.

    Well I am on Denver, and I honestly think the calls at both ends are pretty horrible. Melo obviously charged on that play and at the other end it should have been a no call when everyone was going for the rebounds. Chauncy is really hurting Denver so far shooting to many threes not in rhythm.

    Wow, the refs are all on Portland. Denver can't buy a call.

    Are you kidding me Denver has had 25 FT attempts compared to 10 for Portland. How can Portland be getting all the calls?
