Tag Archives: Chauncey Billups

This one pretty much sums up what it feels like to lose Chauncey Billups for me. Sure Melo had to go, but did he have to take the heart and soul of Colorado basketball with him? I drew this for all of the Nuggets fans in Denver who feel betrayed by Melo, and the Nuggets front office. The image is a bit stark, but it fits the mood of the city right now. It feels like we have lost a part of the landscape. I’d love to know how you feel now that the trade is a few days old.

The Best part. It’s over. The worst part. By far. Losing Chauncey Billups, the heart and soul of the Nuggets. I never really thought much of Melo. Sure he brought points. He brought the Nuggets nationwide coverage, including a lot of highlights on Sportscenter, which these days, seems like the only thing players really care about. But he had no leadership qualities. Winning seemed like an afterthought. He played little if any defense. To me, he kind of embodies everything that is wrong with today’s NBA. Self-centered, spoiled, brat. Chauncey, on the other hand, all class. Pure class. He will be missed. The Nuggets will be sorry that he was part of the deal just in fan backlash and empty seats alone.

I had another cartoon ready last night when the story broke, one I had already sent to United Features, my syndicate. I’ve included it here, because Louis asked me to. The image I subbed it with sums up my feelings, and I think, a lot of peoples feelings about the trade. It’s one of the few times I woke up with the idea completely drawn in my mind. All I had to do was to put it down in ink. So here it is. Let me know your feelings on the trade. I want to know how you feel. Just keep it PG rated OK.

The Nuggets are on the ropes. Whatever events that have transpired to get them to this pint the question now is can they stop the free fall? What will they have to do to turn this all around and prepare for the playoffs. Here’s a new poll. Perhaps we can find some answers there.

Billups

Easily one of my favorite athletes to play in Denver ever. And here’s one of my very favorite cartoons about him. It was a long day. I was scheduled for a root canal late this afternoon and it turned out it wasn’t so late. I missed the appointment. The Tribune called and need a cartoon for tomorrow (yeah, they’re using me more) and I thought we all needed a Chauncy break. Teh Tribune one will probably be my cartoon for Wednesday morning.

Never too late for a forecast. This was in the November Mile High Sports Magazine (still on the newsstands)
