A Denver Nuggets Dynasty |8-0| Week 5 Preview Released!

*Week 5*

--------------------------------------------------------------------

11/15 Vs. Seattle
Primary Shooter- Ray Allen
Secondary Shooter- R. Lewis
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Strengths- Backcourt
Weaknesses- Frontcourt
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Coaches Strategy- This game is pretty much straight to the point. If we close out Ray Allen and Rashard Lewis, then we shut down their whole team strategy because those will be getting the most touches. Ray Allen is deadly from anywhere so we will need to Steve Francis to step his game up on defense. Rashard Lewis is a great finisher and great outside shooter, Carmelo will need to play physical and allow only a minimal amount of touches for Rashard Lewis. Luke Ridnour is a spot up shooter around the arc, if he gets the ball play up close on him and once he dribbles, back off a bit. Other than that, we should see an extension on our undefeated streak here.

:arrow: Premiere Matchup- Steve Francis Vs. Ray Allen

11/21 @ Chicago
Primary Shooter- Ben Gordon
Secondary Shooter- Kirk Hinrich
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Strengths- Backourt
Weaknesses- Frontcourt
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Coaches Strategy- The Bulls have all the firepower they need on and off the bench. Lets start with their starting 5. They don't call him Captain Kirk for nothing, Kirk Hinrich can control the offense with deadly passes and with his ranged shooting. We will need to pressure him to give up the ball. Ben Gordan is just a scoring machine. He will be tought than Steve Francis but Francis has the speed and quickness over Gordon so we may want Steve to hack a bit. Luol Deng is a premiere forward who can do it all. He can pass, rebound and score relentlessly if he wants to but Carmleo won't allow that. Tyson Chandler has a major hieght advantage over Nene but Nene has major strentgh advantage over Tyson, so look for Nene to bully Tyson around a bit. And here we are with the Center battle. Eddy Curry and Marcus Camby are excellent specimans in the Center category and I think we have the edge with Marcus's experience. But I'd keep an eye out on this match-up if Curry is having his way, send Nene to help out.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Premiere Matchup- Marcus Camby Vs. Eddy Curry

11/25 Vs. Milwaukee
Primary Shooter- Michael Redd
Secondary Shooter- Desmond Mason
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Strengths- Frontcourt
Weaknesses- Backcourt
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Coaches Strategy- Alright this should be a pretty easy match. Andrew Bogut is out due to injury and so is Tony Kukoc. There only 2 shooters Desmond Mason and Michael Redd are ours for the taking. They can not do it all. We need to shut them down and let the other players do the work. This is kind of like the Golden State Game only DO NOT allow ANYONE to get over 25 points. Michael Redd is capable of doing that with his shooting skills and Desmond Mason can also do the same ith his dunking skills. We need to play tight on both men and play a little loose on everyone else. If we can do that then Milwaukee will just be another victim to our win-loss record.

Well first of all fair trade from ages ago with K-Mart and Francis

Francis has been perofrming great and now with Melo that is a great combo

Nice couple of wins in there and good luck for the rest of the season

Oh and luv the little article on Melo

thanks... i think this squad has great potentila, so long as no one gets seriously injured or hurt. Especially Carmelo...but i love Steve Francis in a Denver uniform. he's doing great for us....but thanks again fo rthe comments!

Both games should be a shoot-out gud luck and a tip of mine would b to play Allen and Redd tight forcing them to drived to Camby

Nice prediction

Beautiful recaps and reports, gave me an interesting read. Francis is really doing well. Keep it up, nice presentation !
