Three Big Questions
With the NBA draft lottery concluded and the postseason advancing inexorably towards the Finals, the Nuggets and their fans should have three questions at the forefront of their minds.
| Final - 5.16.2013 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| San Antonio Spurs | 21 | 26 | 19 | 28 | 94 |
| Golden State Warriors | 19 | 21 | 19 | 23 | 82 |
With the NBA draft lottery concluded and the postseason advancing inexorably towards the Finals, the Nuggets and their fans should have three questions at the forefront of their minds.
Dwight Howard's stint with the Lakers didn't go very well, but GM Mitch Kupchak has denied the rumors Howard complained about Mike D'Antoni at the end of the season.
With Vinny Del Negro out, the Los Angeles Clippers appear to be turning their sights onto Michael Malone, the assistant head coach of the Golden State Warriors.
With the NBA season coming to an end for most teams, executives have been reflecting upon the past year. The Thunder's Sam Presti and the Warriors' Jerry West are two officials who went on to specifically praise the value of the NBA D-League.
Hey Roaracle, I Heard You Are A Wild One (said veteran NBA free agents such as Jarrett Jack) -- Looking back, despite being bad, Game 6 wasn't all that bad and became a signature moment for the Warriors franchise.
The Grizzlies and Spurs each know how to do work defensively. Will Memphis fluster San Antonio in Game 1 -- like it did in the 2011 playoffs -- or are the Spurs too sound?

The Warriors put up a good fight this past series and have definitely earned this Spurs' fans respect
It ultimately ran out of gas and ran into a ditch, but man, the 2012-13 Warriors season was a thrilling ride while it lasted — one that not even the wildest-eyed Warriors optimists saw coming.
Gregg Popovich made the gutsy decision to sit Tim Duncan down the stretch of the Spurs' Game 6 win over the Warriors. We show you why Popovich made the move and why it ended up working so well.
Sam Amick reports that Mike Malone is expected to be a candidate for the Kings job if Keith Smart is not retained.
The Spurs held off a late rally from the Warriors and advanced to the Western Conference Finals. Gregg Popovich made a late-game adjustment by benching Tim Duncan down the stretch. Did it work out?
