"DJ" David Johnson--NBA--"My Journey is Now" New York Times article featuring David Johnson
This was posted a few weeks back early in the playoffs... The fact that it has so hits is a true crime against humanity. These video gets me so psyched up, every Nuggets fan should watch it on a regular basis so I am posting it up again to ensure people are aware of this work of art :)
For those of you who may have never seen him ... Mark Warkentien the NBA Executive of the Year of the Denver Nuggets. It's been great watching the results of the front office's shrewd and bold moves pay off as this season wears on. Adding castoffs to a crew of misfits who were picked to finish perhaps out of the playoffs, but instead are battling to get to the Western Conference finals.
You often hear the Nuggets may be leading the league in ink ... that could be true. J.R. Smith sits in the locker room after the Nuggets captured the Northwest Division Crown (note the hat atop his head.) I can't wait for Saturday to get here. I'm ready for more Nuggets basketball.
Just saw this photo while cruising the internet over on Ball Don't Lie ... Melo and the team dog "Fletch" from Oct. 2008 just before the season started. We've come a long way ... Melo even got a haircut!
Cruise over to Denver Stiffs and get fired up about one of Denver's locker room LEADERS.
From: Ball Don't Lie The month of May has not been kind to Dirk Nowitzki(notes). After leading his Dallas Mavericks to a first-round playoff series upset, he suddenly trails the Nuggets 2-0 in the Western semis while being pushed around by physical Denver defenders and stubborn TNT personalities alike. And now? Now, he's got women problems. Dallas police officers arrested 37-year-old Cristal Taylor (seen here) Wednesday morning at Nowitzki's house on a fraud warrant. She is being held on a theft of services charge out of Jefferson County in southeast Texas and a probation violation from St. Charles, Mo. According to CBS 11 News sources, the German hired a private investigator to check into Taylor's background and the gumshoe found that she had used at least eight different aliases in the past including Chrystal Ann Taylor, Crystal Ann Taylor, Crystal Ann Santiago and Crista A. Westerhays.
