Chris Dempsey of The Denver Post: "Chauncey Billups proclaimed this as the opportune moment for his team to take a hard look in the mirror, but perhaps no one has already beat themselves up more than he has. The veteran Nuggets guard insisted he will become a more prominent voice in the locker room, the film room and the huddle as the team searches for some sort of chemistry in order to survive a rugged seven-game stretch run, five of which are against teams currently in a playoff spot. 'I don’t think it’s that complicated,' Billups said. 'For one, I think you just, when you’re in a position like this you’ve got to look in the mirror and you’ve got to look at what you can do better. And for me, as the leader of the team, I probably haven’t been doing a good enough job of leading the team in game situations and even out of game situations, film sessions, and stuff like that. I probably haven’t taken a big enough piece of the pie of the responsibility as probably I should have. I know it’s going to be easy to point to (acting coach Adrian Dantley’s) inexperience or us not having Kenyon (Martin), but I think that really you have to point to the leaders of the team, first and foremost myself and say have to do more. Period. We have to do more.' " http://blogs.sltrib.com/jazz/index.php
