The Team No One Talks About

While everyone has been talking about the Lakers, Kobe, Lebron, Cleveland, Superman, and the Boston/Chicago series there has been a little team from the West kicking people's butts for a couple weeks now.

The Denver Nuggets are a complete basketball team that appears to believe in themselves far more than the rest of the nation does. Chauncey Billups runs the show, and he has talent around him. Carmelo Anthony, Kenyon Martin, and Nene have been helping him all year, and it seems like until the Western Conference Finals no one is going to pay attention to them.

Billups has gone through this before in Detroit and won a title, and Melo has been overlooked for the likes of D Wade and Bron his whole career. The chips on their shoulders may never leave, or maybe they will. We will just have to see.

Tonight, the Nuggets dismanted the Mavericks behind a solid team effort. Billups, Anthony, Nene, Kmart, Birdman, and JR Smith all did their things, and the Nuggets looked like a much better team than their opponents. If this keeps up this will be a short series. Dallas is a very good team so I expect a response, but I am not sure it will matter if Denver keeps it up like this.

I know people are not supposed to talk like this, but right now, the Nuggets are a better team than that team in California led by #24. Sorry Mr. Stern, you might get an uninvited guest to the NBA Finals.
