@flying sandos: First, nice name.

Also, in re: abortion. Look up the definition of “slang.” It’s a noun. There you’ll find the answer you crave.

@Flying Sandos Bros:

There is more than one definition…

4. Any fruit or produce that does not come to maturity, or anything which in its progress, before it is matured or perfect; a complete failure; as, his attempt proved an abortion.

Now, I wouldn’t call Pargo a complete failure. I think that’s a strong term, especially sports wise. A better use would be Duke’s tourney run for the 2nd year in a row was an abortion…

I don’t know a lot about a lot but I am going to say that I am 100% sure Pargo is not an abortion, which he has been referred to as several times.

An abortion is the removal or expulsion of an embryo or fetus from the uterus, resulting in or caused by its death.

Did we mean aberration?

Aberration – A deviation from the proper or expected course.

Carmelo is a beast on the block. The nuggets need to learn to play defense and i dont think coach karl is th e guy for the job.

pwned: Player wise, they need an entirely different dynamic. That one won’t work just because they sign Jacques Vaughn. They are a team full of jump shooting one on one players. The Wizard and the Nuggets should be warped back to the mid 90s where they belong.

@Sean Jean – player wise they need a better backup PG, their biggest need is a new coach. I was thinking Larry Brown but he has been around the block too may times, give an assistant a shot who can coach defense and get the players to buy into his system because clearly Karl lost the players a while ago, they probably would have been better off missing the playoffs.

The Nuggets just need to swap conferences. It’s debatable, but I think they could have gotten to the Eastern Conference finals if the matchups were right. They looked bad because they played the Lakers… They had 50 wins, they’re not terrible.

Denver did absolutely nothing before Melo arrived, and they have made the Playoffs in the West for 5 years straight. When a team fundamentally breaks down as much as this Denver team has,it has to do with coaching more than players. Carmelo does get his own shot better than LeBron at this point. Also, I would venture to say that Carmelo would post up a smaller player like Stevenson much more than LeBron has shown the ability to do at 6′9″ 260.
