Short memories and the NBA draft

Today whether you’re a Colorado Rockies player or fan, we must all have a very short memory. Especially after last night’s game. Being on the road, playing one of the best teams in the American League, we did as best as we could and now must move on to Oakland starting Friday. Obviously it was not a start to remember for Jason Marquis, but like every team in the bigs and no matter how well you are playing, you are bound to get whooped like we did last night. The key thing for everyone is to forget about the series and respond by winning the series against the A’s.


We all knew this was bound to happen. The Rockies were going to at some point, lose a series. It happens to every team in Major League Baseball. The good teams forget about it and move on and continue to win series and climb the standings. The bad teams will get down on themselves and continue to lose series and close games. Good teams have short memories; bad teams get down on themselves. We will see what kind of team the Rockies are in the coming series.


Now, the Nuggets will actually draft a player this season! The Nuggets have the 34th pick in the draft today. It really seems that the last time the Nuggets picked someone was Carmelo Anthony. Now, I have no freaking clue that the Nuggets will or could take. What I think they should go after is a point guard that Chauncey can teach. Unless there is a semi-decent big man available. I would rather the Nuggets pick a point guard in this year’s draft. I’ve read about how the Nuggets could try to trade up to try to get North Carolina’s Ty Lawson. I really don’t know who we could actually trade to get that. Linas Klieza? Definitely not. Future draft picks, more likely since that’s what the Nuggets do best. Either way, it will be interesting to see what the Nuggets do. Either way, I’d rather see Chris Andersen signing on the dotted line with a new contract.
