Also for the new posters - use this thread to introduce yourself. How did you become a nuggets fan? Where do you live? Favorite player? How long have you been a fan? etc...

important to note that trolls are not welcome here so please post in a respectful manner at all times...new posters who cause trouble, troll, are rude, make childish remarks, etc are not allowed here and those types of posts will not be tolerated.

thanks and go nuggets!

NT Rules:

1. No insulting, attacking, or baiting. Period. There are no exceptions. You cannot insult or attack another poster ever, no matter what reasoning you may come up with. If you disagree with another post, thats fine, but do not attack the poster for it.

4. No spam. duh.

5. No trolling. again, duh.

6. Keep threads on topic. I know its fun to talk about other things, but do not hijack a thread and divert the discussion. If you want to discuss something else, simply create a new thread in the appropriate section (eg. Hangout).

I grew up in LA during the early 2000s as Kobe and Shaq were winning rings. Then I moved to Miami just in time for their championship. Wade is my favorite playa. I've always loved the spurs because they always kick a$$. Manu is sick. Kobe 2. Etc

Born and raised in Washington DC/Northern VA, currently attending school @ Howard University. Pops took me to watch AI @ Gtown his freshman year when I was 6, have loved him ever since. Used to tag along with my cousin on his shift at Downtown Locker Room, where AI used to get his clothes. Cuz used to lay stuff to the side for him haha.

Was a Sixers' fan from 96 til AI was traded. Have been following the Nugs since they drafted local hero Melo. Watched him in HS, dude was something nasty. It was like a dream come true when AI was traded to the Nugs.

Born and raised in Denver. Went to South High School where i met Alex English in the lunchroom the year he was one of the highest paid players in the league... at lik $900k/yr. Then in about 2001 i got season tickets and i sit in 302 if anyone wants to come by and stand at the end of the aisle and chat with me while the a-holes behind us scream "DOWN IN FRONT" and throw those little frozen icecream dots things.

From Hampton, VA so I support A.I. wherever he goes. Currently live in Northern VA and go to B-more frequently so I cheer for Melo also. Also a fan of JR Smiths game, he came on strong at the end of the season last year.

what up. nuggets fan since through the rotten years. from central illinois and a buddy started liking the team the year the nugs beat the sonics in the playoffs, a few of us jumped on board with him and liked the team through thick and thicker.

favorite player, obviously the one and only Priest Lauderdale. How could it not be? 7'4 325 lb beast that is lefthanded and can supposedly dunk on his tip toes. Tried for years to see him play and to contact him, neither have ever happend.

This current Nuggets squad pisses me off more than anything. too many big contracts too many big attitudes, not enough coaching. personally, im ready to ship all of them out and start over the way they did before Melo came to town. At least those horrible teams were consistent.

Ill be around.

By the way how many posts do I have to make to get that Skita's Pizza Delivery Guy off my profile because Skita is the worst player ever and in my top 3 least favorite nuggets ever.

What's up. I've been a Nuggets fan since shortly after I moved out here in 1990. I didn't really like basketball before then. I became more and more of a fan through the lovable loser days when the Nuggets were only disappointing me during the regular season, not the post-season. I live up in Boulder, am not a student and am consistently drunk on my homebrewed beer.

Anyone who was around on the board back in the late 90s early 2000s (Rock, I'm looking at you...) may remember me. That's right, the good ol' days when Keon Clark was throwing down on fools and Dan Issel was slinging racial slurs like they were poo and he was a monkey.

Now, I supposed I should talk about my Nuggets' theme of the year, which I developed after watching what were allegedly the playoffs last year: trade everyone and rebuild around JR Smith... that's right, JR Smith.

Hahaha... I just noticed my little by-line. George McClang... classic. He was so bad... you know you're bad when you make Voshon Lenard look good.

Well i guess this is where i tell a bit about myself and how i came to be a nuggets fan eh?

Well I'm 23, married to a wonderful young lady, we have one boy (about 19 months). We live in the beautiful state of iowa, where Iowa Hawkeye Football fills the air [image] (GO HAWKS!) [image]

Now onto my explanation of how i became a Nuggets fan...hmmm well I've never really been a fan of basketball, but decided that this year i was actually going to follow the NBA and well what good is following the NBA if you don't have a team? Well that brings me to my next phase. I've always like AI, since i read "Only the Strong Survive" (Which coincidently is tattooed on my right bicep) and chronicles his time on the 76ers and how they treated him, well i kinda followed him from afar on sportscenter and what not. So when I was thinking of a team to choose this year i was like "What team sounds like the most exciting?" automatically i thought about the Nuggets and Melo and AI.

The thing about me is, once I pick a team i'm stuck with them for a long time, I'm a HUGE Oakland Raiders fan (I know bronco fans let me hear it) and have liked them my whole life as well as the Hawkeyes and the dear cubs...so i'm deffly going big by going with the Nuggets, i think they got huge potential and feel like the right team for me...so there....that's my intro
