Ah, look who's in second place in the Northwest. I see you Denver Nuggets. While Carmello Anthony flounders around on the Knicks, the Nuggets are doing work. And the trade that shipped Mello to the Big Apple is paying off.The leading scorer on the Nuggets is former Knick, Dino Gallinari at 17.4 points per. While no where near the top of the NBA, he only ranks 34th in points per...

One of the more remarkable stats coming out of the Nuggets’ win at New York on Saturday came courtesy of Danilo Gallinari: He scored a career-high 37 points – with just one 3-point make.
Anyone believing Gallinari was solely a long-range shooter, and there are many, wouldn’t have bet he’d tally that many points in a game without the benefit of four or five buckets...

Maybe this is the Italian-American in me, but I think Denver Nuggets F Danilo Gallinari will have the best career of any player on the current New York Knicks roster.
Danilo Gallinari may be the most complete player of any of either roster at such a young stage in his career. He has terrific range, can drive to the basket hard, and is more than capable of defending and rebounding...

Nuggets coach George Karl looks at his team and sees a good number of his players still in basketball elementary school. Some of those players – Ty Lawson, Danilo Gallinari, Timofey Mozgov, among them – play significant roles in the Nuggets’ success. They are not rookies, yet remain...

Both Nuggets starting shooting guard Arron Afflalo and reserve guard Rudy Fernandez are erring on the side of caution in returning from injuries in order not to come back too fast and suffer a setback.
Because of that mindset, neither sounded overly optimistic about playing on Wednesday in the Nuggets’ next game at Sacramento. Afflalo has a groin injury and Fernandez has been...
