Michael Cooper Watch --

Nuggets lost last night, falling to 2-5.

But Denver GM Kiki Vandeweghe continues to insist that he's not planning to replace coach Bzdelik with coach Coop. Over the weekend, he denied that he had forced Bzdelik to take Coop on as an assistant.

"There's talk that I brought in Michael Cooper, and that's not true," said Vandeweghe. "Jeff picked all of his assistants. I suggested some of the guys and Michael was one of them. Jeff had a long list also, but he picked his assistants."

When asked if that was an accurate description of events, Bzdelik responded: "Sure."
