NBA Fun Fact Of The Day! Since Michael Jordan retired in January 1999, every NBA Finals has included either Kobe Bryant, Shaquille O'Neal or Tim Duncan, and every Finals has been represented in the West by either L.A., San Antonio or Dallas.

I thought newcomers to this site might appreciate my 2008 rundown of the Nuggets unlucky history in the NBA Draft Lottery.
A DenverPost fan-interview with Kenny Smith
Kenny says the obvious, which is that the Nuggets need more big men and they need to play better defense and be a team. He also correctly identifies Nene and KMart as both 6'9" PFs, which much of the national media people can't do. Kenny also thinks that JR can still improve, but that's probably because DenverPost wouldn't allow him to say what he wanted to say (that he hates JR's attitude)
