They played an elite team. And while that team didn't have its best
player - the Nuggets were missing both AI & Camby (both of whom might
be playing in the all-star game).

The Nuggets did fall into one of their common habits - giving up 13
straight points from a 10 point lead, but if they play the way they
did last night every night, they will be an elite team as well.

Nene played well too.

No doubt, Nene is really coming around. And they played pretty well last
night, especially in the first half, even when Nash was still in the game.
If they could play the way they played in the first half last night more
consistently, they could become a contender. That seems to be a mighty big
if with this team, unfortunately.
