WC - Round 1 - LA Lakers (3) v. Denver (6)

[VF21]

Who advances to Round 2?

 

[TyFreak Evans]

All the talent (Kobe) will prove too much for Denver to handle. Fake Slow in 5.

 

[gunks]

Bynum with a 10 block triple double. This is why I think its funny when people around here say Cousins is better than Bynum. I'd swap DMC for Bynum without thinking twice if it wasnt for the injury concerns.


Disclaimer (flamesuit): That being said, I'm still a huge DMC fan, and hate the Lakers. But they are gonna handle the Nuggets (who got destroyed by the lockout).

And the fact that Bynum is dumber than a box of kleenex.

LOL Lakers down 41-21 early in Denver.

 

[kingsnation]

Fun game to watch. Always fun of course when the Lakers are frustrated haha Also Faried who is just nasty - just laid a monster block on Gasol!

And not to mention that Gasol is softer than a box of Kleenex...

daily conspiracy theory: the Lakers actually want this series to go at least six games, so that MWP can play the first game of the next round (and concuss James Harden some more).

I started to laugh and ridicule your comment until I thought about it...

 

[kingsnation]

Gosh I hate LA. but wow Danilo Galinari is a heck of a flopper.

 

[gunks]

Everyone flops these days. NBA is turning into Soccer.


Pretty sure Lakers are gonna wrap this up next game. Then we get to see them lose in 6 to OKC!

I'm going to the game on Tuesday, so I hope they do close it out! 5 1/2 hours on the train and a 2 hour bus ride...each way...arriving back in Sac. just in time to go to work! My friend got 2 tickets at the last minute....

Have fun, hoospie! You know I can't wish that your team wins, but I will always wish that you have a good time when you get to go. A close-out game in Staples should be a great time for Laker fans.

GO HOOPSIE!!

 

[hoopsfan]

Thank you, VF...and I didn't expect that you would hope for a win for my team! I can hear you now...DIE LAKER SCUM! LOL

You know me too well.

 

[gunks]

Anyone watching this?

And the cut gets deeper....

 

[gunks]

Also, Gallinari sucks turribly. Dunno what the hype was about that kid.

 

[VF21]

Hey, Bynum? Got any more inspirational messages for the Nuggets?

 

[kingsnation]

Loving this win!

 

[Fear the Putin]

oh god!

if denver somehow takes game 6, the pressure will be on L.A.

Denver has absolutely nothing to lose.

I will be rooting heavily for the Denver win.

If they continue to push the pace, play with the energy that LA can't match, at that altitude, it could be difficult for LA to keep up, especially considering how much energy Kobe burned trying to push for the win last night.

 

[VF21]

Let's hope that Bynum sees fit to make another motivational comment. It worked miracles...for the Nuggets.

 

[gunks]

That was a finish! Nothing like seeing the Lakers get Lazy and dog it on their home court.

To think, Denver could have been up 3-2 right now if it wasnt for Gallinari's pathetic flopping at the end of game 4!

I hope Denver can stretch this out longer, gives Perkins time to heal up over in OKC. Hell, if the Nuggets take game 6, they might even have a decent chance at an upset!

 

[kingsnation]

Kobe is a gametime decision tonight for Game 6. Apparent stomach ailment.

I just have this feeling he's trying to play Michael Jordan here

[PurpleHaze]

Wow! Denver opens up ripping the Lakers 11-0 in first two minutes. Kobe looks ill, like he may have "runs" on the court if he stays out there.

Well, maybe not quite that sick as Bryant has 10pts after 1Q but Denver still up by 10 - plus Kobe putting up a lot of shots.

Ah, so the brave little soldier is going for the Michael Jordan-playing-through-illness bit? He's such a trooper.

 

[TyFreak Evans]

Considering they go on to actually win the series, If the Lakers team that showed up to play during this series shows up to play during the series with Oklahoma City, I fully expect to see OKC in the Conference Finals....

With that being said....................................












let's go nuggets!!!

 

[Hoovtrain]

Faried is very impressive.
