Denver Nuggets since trading Carmelo Anthony to New York

Is it me or are the Denver Nuggets playing better since Carmelo Anthony was traded to New York. I thought when they added Chauncey Billups to the trade I thought the Nuggets officially lost there mind. I now realized how wrong I was. They are 11-4 since the trade while New York is 7-9. With Denver I don't know who is going to be the leading scorer of the night since Melo was traded. Denver has had games where five to six guys have been in double figures. The Nuggets seem to play to win while to me the Knicks have some guys who are playing more for stats. While I don't think the Nuggets are going to the NBA finals they are a much better and interesting team. I was amazed at last night how they were keeping up with the Spurs and how Al Harrington many times got fouled by driving to the basket. Denver now has more depth on there roster since the trade. Here are the guys by position who i think are good players.

Center- Nene, Chris Anderson

Power Forward- Kenyon Martin, Al Harrington

Small Forward- Danilo Gallineri, Wilson Chandler

Shooting Guard- Aaron Affalo, J.R. Smith

Point Guard- Ty Lawson, Raymond Felton


I look at that and think Denver is 10 deep. Whether that team will go deep in the playoffs I don't know. They do now have some young pieces to build around now which will be helpful. I actually thought this team would start losing but again have proven me wrong.
