  if he steps up, nuggets will be unstoppable…

  Nene can really be a beast if he sets his mind to it. When you really think about the names on that Nuggets’ front court: Nene, Kenyon, Birdman, MELO, that should put fear in the hearts of every NBA big man out there. Except I don’t think it really does. And that’s just too bad.

  although melo is of course pretty frighteningly good

  Wasn’t Brad Miller considered a shoot-second big?

  Big Nene fan. One of the few players that use their left hand more than the right being a right handed player and all.Just like Jermaine and has better footwork than most of the starting bigs in the league. Very underrated passer too. I keep wondering who the biggest star in Brazil is. Is it him, Leandro or Andy?

  @cb 34 Unfortunately, none of them is a real star here in Brazil. Basketball’s popularity here is down nowadays and that includes the NBA. Mainly because of poor management by the suits and our national team sucking big time for at least 15 years. I’d say Varejao gets more media attention because of his “man-child surfer” image and, of course, the hairdo. The general public doesn’t perceive him as the garbage-type player he is. Nene is hated by many, as he seldom plays for our national team. Every year he has a new excuse. He’s admired by others based on talent and potential. Basketball aside, I think his PR moves are terrible and he’s not the brightest person out there. I respect Barbosa because he always shows up to represent Brazil, but he’s not the leader or clutch player we’d like him to be. He’s just to humble. It’s not in his blood.

  As a Laker fan I thank Nene for being unselfish, because if he turns it up, man that could be dangerous. He’s good.

• Jukai Posted: Dec.16 at 4:01 pm
  niQ: Yes.

  most complete center in the west…wish he was a Blazer…

• Sporting-Lisbon-Blazers Posted: Dec.16 at 8:18 pm
  underated too…

• clapzilla Posted: Dec.16 at 8:46 pm
  People Have Already Written Off The Nuggets In A Possible Series Against The Lakers (some here haven’t though). But What If Melo And Nene Just Go Off? Can The Lakers Actually Beat The Nuggets 4 Times If Those 2 Guys Play Out of Their Minds?

• Jukai Posted: Dec.16 at 10:32 pm
  clapzilla: Yes.

• dj Posted: Dec.20 at 5:42 pm
  nene is way underated

• chintao Posted: Dec.23 at 4:39 am
  Nene easily is my favorite non-U.S.-born player. re: kauhl’s point, I think dude just doesn’t give a f@ck about P.R.
