The power forward only managed to contribute 6.4ppg and 5.2rpg in the 5 games he played before being sidelined by the injury.Recommendations: Shame on you if you dropped Nene. He will continue posting at least 10-7 numbers as he gains trust in his shooting form once again (steady 50% right now). Just watch out for his 2 turnovers a game (that's a tad too much for a big man).
Kudos to Marcus Camby for throwing 10 balls out of their trajectory. Yup, that's 10 blocks to boot, and earning his third career triple-double doesn't hurt (10 points and 11 rebounds as well).
Since Linas Kleiza's buzzer-beater against the Kings, the Nuggets have been performing at a much higher level than their mascot, Rocky.

wala siyang surname! NENE lang talaga =O he's one of the 6 people na one namers lng
Actually, he DID have a surname. He had it changed to just "Nene," but it just feels weird to be calling someone by just his first name always if he's not a superstar (I mean, Pele sure deserved it, and the LeBrons and Kobes do, but Nene?)
Just my take on why we still refer to him as Nene Hilario. :p
Bill Simmons mentioned something like, still, Nene got that huge contract (unlike countrymen Leandro Barbosa and Anderson Varejao, both without that one-name thing going, and who both had pretty cheap contracts) :D
