Game 1: Lakers vs Nuggets

[IronMexican]

Kenyon Martin is a thug.


Go Lakers.

[j.dizzle]

LA aint gonna be rusty & I'm pretty sure after like 7 weeks off, Denver will be haha..Im thinkin Kobe will score around 30-35 pt since they have nobody that can guard him..Lakers win by 12

[Banzai]

Lets see if this fool is as good as he talks.

wonder why he is talking.

[Allanon]

Now that I've had a few days, I think I was too down on the Lakers after their Game 6 loss to the Rockets when I made my series prediction.

I've changed my mind, this series won't be 5 games, Lakers are gonna sweep.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

There is nothing wrong with what Martin said. He said what anyone road team would say going into Games 1 & 2. He didn't say they were guaranteed to win both games, he simply said the Nuggs were going into the games looking to try and win them both like most visiting teams should.

Big deal.

Kenyon is a retard..He's garbage vs the lakers & everyone will see tomorrow. He's good for one thing though..getting techs & trying to look hard

[IronMexican]

I liked the guy fucking himself up with all the chairs more.

[KSeal]

This series will go seven games. The Lakers will win but it will be the dog fight of all dog fights. Billups just has too much of a competitive nature, and is too much of a leader with the talent he has around him to let this team just go down. The Nuggets are a great home team with a great HCA. I think the Lakers will find a way to win the first two games at home but they will be extremely close. I think every home team will win the game and it will go seven with the Lakers barely pulling it out ala the Celtics vs. Cavs last year.

[DAF86]

I don't know if refs favor the Lakers but scheduling 99 % of the times does, why do they almost always play a day before their possible rivals of future rounds?

[iggypop123]

all about the 3. thats what melo will get. its up to him if he makes them. thats the key. strictly the 3

[IronMexican]

Banzai, is that Micheal Jackson on the sig?

[ElNono]

Who is reffing? I'm just wondering who DrHouse will lay the blame on.

[KSeal]

all about the 3. thats what melo will get. its up to him if he makes them. thats the key. strictly the 3

Bullshit, the key is Drew and Gasol, if they leave the skirts at home and play like men this series could be drastically changed. But if they get punked by the thugs (which I'm expecting) then this will be a long drag out series up for grabs. My two cents anyways.

[Banzai]

Banzai, is that Micheal Jackson on the sig?

No that is not MJ...but here try this http://www.threadbombing.com/data/media/2/00146qtx.gif (http://www.threadbombing.com/details.php?image_id=1183)

[IronMexican]

I think I will finish #2, cause timvp probably isn't making any more VB's now that SA is out. Does that give me a Spur? Can I get a Laker emblem instead? I demand the #1 spot! SAtown cheated.

[ElNono]

My only concern with Denver is the coach. George Karl is such a pathetic coach.
I think Billups has masked a whole lot of that since his arrival.

[IronMexican]

Yeah, Kobe really silenced me with that 4-12.

[IronMexican]

Seems like u jumped ship with that thread.

I'd never jump ship. I'll be a Laker fan for life. I am not a fan of every person that puts the P&G on.

[21_Blessings]

Yeah, Kobe really silenced me with that 4-12.

Did you actually pay attention to the game or were you too busy masturbating to your Shaq posters.? Kobe played fantastic defense and was able to create a shit load of easy buckets for Gasol.

[IronMexican]

Kobe played decent. But he didn't play great. And the whole Lakers team played great D Sunday.

[21_Blessings]

Kobe played decent. But he didn't play great. And the whole Lakers team played great D Sunday.

Kobe's defense was definitely great on Sunday. He set the tone. 2 blocks, 3 steals, 7 boards while holding his man to 15% shooting? Please. It's hilarious how fans like you handwave a game like that with "4/12" implying negative without any context. Especially considering his shots were coming within the offense and the attention he was drawing opened up the middle for the bigs.

But hey, lol 4/12. Forget the 5 dimes and 1 turnover or the fact that one of those misses was a half court buzzer beater and another penetration layup that lead to an easy putback due to him drawing three defenders.

[baseline bum]

4-12 is par for the course for Kobe in elimination games.

This is getting ridiculous. Someone needs to tell this idiot how to speak without cancleing out what he wants to actually say.

Spur fans were well aware of this when the Spurs played the Nuggets in 2005 PO's. This guy does it all the time and the media publishes to make him look stupid, but he hasnt' gotten the point yet. What a thug/punk.

Don't worry, the dream starts tonight idiot.

I just hope you're not too embarrassed to come back here tonight.

Let's make a Sig/Avatar bet on who will win this series, ok buddy? Just name the terms. Don't be scared, the Nuggz are gonna roll the Lakers right? Make the bet :lol

[baseline bum]

We’re going (there) to win both games. Not just going (there) to split. … Ain’t no stealing nothing. We’re going to play to win. No matter if they have days off or not, we’re going win.”

LOL Denver may win the series, but if they do it will be because of Nene, Melo, and Billups. Not Mr. 3 for 23.

I have all my money placed on Kobe going over 26. He's had two whole days off, so it should happen.

[sook]

Hahah, SATown cheated. But I'm talking about Sook, that fucker's got like $$ 180,000

Holyshit! Thats right I was screwing around one day and bet all my money on a series, can't remember which one :lol

looks like if there is another VB I'm going to have to bet $188325, its all or nothing!

Kmart says: It's ON bitches!

[sook]

I can't stand Martin, I hope he gets force fed those words. Amazing, if he didn't have billups to ride all the way there he wouldn't be talking.

[me15lo]

Mr. me15lo, you've been around long enough and I don't think you're one of Bump's trolls (I hope), I'll take your bet if you like.

ok. sig bet it is.
nuggets rolling the lakers is too ignorant so maybe we can make it like whoever wins the series wins the bet. regardless of how many games it will take. is that ok?

Sounds good me15lo, simple bet on whomever wins the series. I got Lakers, you got Nuggets.

Whomever loses gives up his sig for whatever the Winner wants. Sig bet lasts until the next season begins.

This is the one game in LA that worries me. It always seems like if the road team steals a game, game 1 is the game to do it.

[Allanon]

This is the one game in LA that worries me. It always seems like if the road team steals a game, game 1 is the game to do it.

Lakers ain't gonna blow ANOTHER game 1.

Games 3 & 4 are the ones that worry me, the Lakers might not get the sweep.

[sonic21]

I don't know if Billups can be contained but I think he is a better matchup for the Lakers than Brooks.

[DPG21920]

Lakers ain't gonna blow ANOTHER game 1.

Games 3 & 4 are the ones that worry me, the Lakers might not get the sweep.

If they do, will your opinion about your team change? Will it change your sweep prediction?

[Allanon]

Mike Breen, Jeff Van Gundy and Mark Jackson tonight....good stuff.

[Allanon]

If they do, will your opinion about your team change? Will it change your sweep prediction?

It might change my sweep prediction but the Lakers are winning regardless.

[DPG21920]

It might change my sweep prediction but the Lakers are winning regardless.

So if the Lakers lose a game, it MIGHT change your sweep opinion? I must be awesome to have the ability to never be wrong. Go Grizz, Go OKC, Go Minnesota.

[sexinthatsx]

lets go denver, tear the lakers a new asshole

[sexinthatsx]

nice charge though

[Spur-Addict]

Back to back weak calls to get the best kobe defender in foul trouble.

[sexinthatsx]

wow so many easy points for melo

[024]

i'm interested in dahntay jones' defense on bryant since he will be a FA. too bad i can't watch this game so someone else will have to fill me in.

[dirk4mvp]

Melo sucks against us. We always shut him down.

[Pistons < Spurs]

Lakers be in trouble!!!!!!

[sexinthatsx]

the nuggets don't look rusty whatsoever

[Amuseddaysleeper]

oh man, I am loving this so far

[ElNono]

LOL defensive anchor...

[BandWagon Cavs Fan]

hahaha Lakers fuckin suck

[benefactor]

Lakers look just like they did during their uninspired efforts against Houston. This series is going 6 games max.

[sexinthatsx]

fuck the lakers... TEAR EM A NEW ASSHOLE DENVER!

[sexinthatsx]

hahahah look how soft gasol is

[Cry Havoc]

:lmao

No camping in the key for you this series, Lakers. I know that worked against the Rockets, but this is a real team.

[IronMexican]

Fisher is horrible.

[Cry Havoc]

:lmao

Lakers are so lazy on offense. They're going to get their ass handed to them.

[dirk4mvp]

lame no call.

[Libri]

Wasn't Billups fouled?

[Cry Havoc]

Wasn't Billups fouled?

Yes. Refs won't be able to save the Lakers though.

[sexinthatsx]

foul on billups... no call, over the back foul on bynum... no call WTF?!

[sonic21]

Chauncy got hit pretty hard on that 3 attempt. I bet the refs give him a make up call soon and Laker fans cry bloody murder.

[Cry Havoc]

Let's do the chat thing guys! Click the chat window at the top and let it begin!

[sexinthatsx]

seriously, this is fucking bullshit... so many no calls favoring the lakers

[HarlemHeat37]

Billups was clearly fouled on that 3, and Bynum should have picked up a foul when he pulled down Birdman..

[sook]

WOW fisher fucking sucks!


Play shannon brown phill!

[sonic21]

Bynum was in the paint for all 24 seconds of that possession. Then he threw Birdman on the floor. Atleast they gave it to Denver on the out of bounds call

[Cry Havoc]

:lol at Billups running into the broadcast booth.

[dirk4mvp]

Carmelo's making this look easier than against Dallas.

[Cry Havoc]

Odom cannot guard Melo.

[Pistons < Spurs]

Nice pass!!!!

[sexinthatsx]

denver has some good offensive rotation

[dirk4mvp]

:lmao Carmelo

[Cry Havoc]

Kobe has one of the prettiest jump shots I've ever seen when he spins baseline. it's actually something I've added to my game because I've seen him use it so effectively.

[HarlemHeat37]

Wow, Anthony is just shredding them..

[Libri]

Laker defense :lmao

[RobSM64]

did jvg just call sahsa, "vujachick"?

[sexinthatsx]

lol this is pretty embarrassing for the lakers

[redzero]

Peja did a better job against Carmelo, and he can't even move his feet.

[HarlemHeat37]

Anthony again..STOP SNITCHIN'!

[sexinthatsx]

wow melo's lighting it up

[dirk4mvp]

Wow

[Cry Havoc]

Wow, Gasol just leveled Billups going for the loose ball with no call. Fucking pathetic officiating.

[bdubya]

Smooth runnin' the show. :toast

[HarlemHeat37]

I didn't like that D..Luke Walton NEVER wants to shoot, make him take the shot, even though Vujacic sucks..

[Pistons < Spurs]

Great first qtr for Denver.

[Cry Havoc]

Lakers have resorted to chucking already. Incredible. They're playing scared!

[sexinthatsx]

i can't lie... watching the lakers when they're down is pretty exciting

[IronMexican]

Lucky to be down 8.

[HarlemHeat37]

Billups missed an open lay-up earlier, and he just missed 2 FTs..he needs to step his game up to his usual game..

Denver should be up by double-digits, so LA comes out OK, all things considered..

[Pistons < Spurs]

Billups w/ 6 assists already

[ElNono]

Lots of game left... Lakers came out kinda lethargic...

[sexinthatsx]

Lots of game left... Lakers came out kinda lethargic...

lets hope they stay lethargic

[Nocioni]

Lucky threes

[bdubya]

Billups w/ 6 assists already

+0 turnovers.

[ATXSPUR]

Is it just me or does the physical makeup of this Denver team remind you a lot of that Detroit team in 2004?

[Cry Havoc]

Lots of game left... Lakers came out kinda lethargic...

Shocker. This team has never done that.

[benefactor]

This is really no surprise to anyone who is not a Lakers homer. LA is a bad defensive team...period. They will need a huge effort from Kobe and Gasol to make it out of this series.

[Cry Havoc]

Is it just me or does the physical makeup of this Denver team remind you a lot of that Detroit team in 2004?

Their PG looks very similar. :lol

But you aren't the only one to say that.

Is it just me or does coach Karl look like he's about to have a heart attack?

[Cry Havoc]

DAMN. On my TV you can actually see Karl's face in the BG when the Lakers are shooting FTs, and it's bright red.

[HarlemHeat37]

Nuggets 1-6 from the line..wow..

[portpower_11]

Gasol is damn soft!

I can't believe that K Martin owns Lakers frontline

[Crookshanks]

Come on Denver - you gotta make your freethrows! It'd be a 10-point lead if you hadn't missed so many of them already!

[sexinthatsx]

good shit, gtfo bynum

[me15lo]

rebound demmit!

[me15lo]

nice assist smith demmit!

[resistanze]

God damn that moron, JR Smith.

[HarlemHeat37]

Denver can't continue playing like this if they want to win this game..

[024]

i sense a karl-smith meltdown this series.

[portpower_11]

Denver has dominated Larkers so far.

The score, however, shows that the game is pretty even

[resistanze]

God damn that moron, JR Smith.

[HarlemHeat37]

wow, JR is playing horribly..

[me15lo]

jr GTFO

[timtonymanu]

Fuck JR Smith!

[IronMexican]

Woo!

[HarlemHeat37]

it would be nice if Anthony got a shot in this quarter..

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Put Melo and Billups back in and the Nuggs will extend the lead easily.

[ATXSPUR]

Gah! I just remembered who's coaching Denver. They better sharpen up.

[ElNono]

Why is Carmelo out there if they're not going to give him the ball?

[resistanze]

Why is Carmelo out there if they're not going to give him the ball?

Billups is the only one with the common sense to do that.

[resistanze]

Hopefully Kobe comes back out so the Nuggets can get back on track.

[HarlemHeat37]

Woooo Nene..that was mean..

[RobSM64]

nene thunderous dunk!

[Pistons < Spurs]

oooooooooooooooooooooh

[HarlemHeat37]

Lakers average shooters making 3s..Denver needs to maintain their composure..

[Pistons < Spurs]

2 on Kobe

[Cry Havoc]

Lakers have rigged the rims.

[HarlemHeat37]

Billups can't make anything..it would help if he and JR showed up..

[me15lo]

oh shit LK's in

[Pistons < Spurs]

seriously? 3 misses from Billups?

[resistanze]

WTF Billups.

[timtonymanu]

Damnit Billups!

[Crookshanks]

Yay - Billups hit one! He's a 96% freethrow shooter and he's missed how many already?

[portpower_11]

WOW,

I remebered that CB is one of the best FT shooter in the league.

haha

[Cry Havoc]

Lakers fans suddenly coming unglued since the refs aren't giving them calls. :lol

[portpower_11]

Gasol just disappeared

[resistanze]

Ac = nbdl

[Libri]

I want to see a replay on that Carter foul on Kobe.

[resistanze]

LMAO @ Gasol. Bark at him or put a defender with tattoos on him and he's Swayze.

[Bob Lanier]

How many timeouts does George Karl have?

[HarlemHeat37]

I don't like Denver's lead..they've played average, but LA has played even worse..you have to make your free throws and layups..their decision-making outside of Billups, Anthony, and Nene has been questionable as well..

[BandWagon Cavs Fan]

LMAO @ Gasol. Bark at him or put a defender with tattoos on him and he's Swayze.


fhahahahahah true

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Where the hell is Carmelo this quarter?

[ElNono]

Wow... Nene over Bynum

[ElNono]

Nene has both Bynum and Gasol in a couple posters tonight...

[Bob Lanier]

:lmao at the "AMAZING JUST HAPPENED" on the jumbotron.

[HarlemHeat37]

It's funny how we heard how dominant LA's frontcourt was going to be against Houston, and that didn't work out..it hasn't worked out well so far tonight either..

Denver is shooting FTs like Sacramento from 2002..

[it's me]

Goooooo Brazil....... I like nene man... dude can play

[Bob Lanier]

Well-represented? Brasil has two-thirds the population of the United States.

[Bob Lanier]

Great courage after finding out he had cancer? What the fuck does that even mean?

[ElNono]

I wonder how tired Nene is going to be by the end of the game... he's been playing all out... I have to think Bynum is hobbled. He's just getting overpowered out there.

[IronMexican]

Relapse commercial is gay.

[ElNono]

LOL Gasol

[Bob Lanier]

I have to think Bynum is hobbled. He's just getting overpowered out there.
He's a giant Jell-O mold on legs, not an ironman.

[HarlemHeat37]

Anthony gets a cheap T..

[timtonymanu]

Refs helping LA as usual.

[Banzai]

nene is a monster.

[Bob Lanier]

I love how announcers never explain what the "CBA" is, as if any NBA fans know.

[it's me]

wow they're making sure carmelo gets some technicals early ...

[HarlemHeat37]

this is all Karl's fault right now..Anthony was hot as fuck, and now he's completely out of rhythm since he didn't even touch the ball once for half the quarter..

nice tip by JR..

[HarlemHeat37]

I can't believe Denver isn't up by double digits..

[Libri]

Gasol posterized twice! More to come.

[Banzai]

wow

[resistanze]

Nuggets will lose this series solely based on stupidity.

[redzero]

See, this is why I think the Nuggets won't beat the Lakers. The Lakers can go shot for shot.

[IronMexican]

Fisher pisses me off

[ElNono]

The entire Lakers frontline is in foul trouble and Denver is only up by one?

[me15lo]

wow JR! :elephant

[rayray2k8]

these missed free throws... are gonna come back and haunt the Nuggets.

[crc21209]

That is not a foul on Jones....refs just sucking off Kobe.

[crc21209]

Mike Breen sucking off the Lakers hardcore.....Fisher...for 3.....BANGGG! (Creams in pants!) :lol

That was the clincher!

Sorry but that's how predictable the NBA is.

[ElNono]

Denver let up in the second quarter... but they are where they wanna be.

[HarlemHeat37]

I actually think Denver should be happy about the score..

LA's bigs were in foul trouble, but that isn't surprising..Lakers non-shooters were making 3s, Denver forgot their best player for most of the quarter, horrible unforced decisions, missed around 10 free throws, missed 3 easy layups..

I think they're in good shape..they're just a much more stable team when Billups is on the floor, and the ball is going through Anthony..

[Banzai]

strange game.

[Amaso]

Lakers up by 1 even though the refs tried their hardest to keep Denver with the lead. I'll take it.

[InRareForm]

LOLOLOL quite the contrary

[HarlemHeat37]

the calls were bad on both sides, but LA got a few more calls..refs haven't been biased, just bad..it hasn't helped either team..

[it's me]

:lmao no questions... Sternkers fans are the most idiotic ones by far....

[Jacko]

Calls were bad on BOTH sides I would say.

Wow, unbelievable that LAL is up 1 after that half. LAL played like utter crap on both ends.

Melo is a streak shooter.

He can stay hot for a quarter but can cool off for a quarter too.

[IronMexican]

Woooohooooo

[gaKNOW!blee]

Kobe really isnt playing that well imo....7-16 shooting with just 1 assist.

[Nocioni]

Nuggets played bad they give up a lot of off rebound and miss FTS that should improve

[IronMexican]

"Sternkers" might be the weakest diss ever.

[gaKNOW!blee]

What game were you watching you fucking clown. Thuggets got 21 to 10 free throw advantage.

Thats what happens when you take 14 threes.

[benefactor]

Nice job by LA to get back in it, but they still have to be concerned with the effort. They can't rely on 18 per half from Kobe to keep them in games.

[crc21209]

You know for a fact ESPN LOVES the Lakers...because come on now...how is Magic fucking Johnson...a former Laker and currently with the Laker front office, allowed to give ANY insight on ANY Laker game. It would be like fucking Pop being on the panel of guys talking about a Spurs game at half.

[IronMexican]

Kobe is playing great.

[Jacko]

This has been a weird game.

DEN should be up big with the way LAL has been playing. Our bigs are non existent and Fisher is like 1/50 with numerous TO's. They haven't capitalized on the Lakers sloppy play and it could hurt them in the 2nd half if the Lakers wake up.

[Deuces88]

I like how Melo gets a T for saying something, but Kobe is allowed to jump up and down, screaming like a 5 y/o.

No biased reffing here. Definitely not.

[benefactor]

Denver needs to look for Nene early in the second half. He is murdering LA's super soft front line.

[Jacko]

Neither side can complain about ref bias. The refs just suck as usual.

Billups has choked hard on his F/Ts.

[gaKNOW!blee]

Ok well Kobe isn't playing well offensively then, which is what the focus was on the halftime show.

[crc21209]

Laker fans are kidding themselves if they think that Pau Gasol is not soft, and think that he is a dominant big man. The entire Laker frontline is getting owned right now by Nene and Martin.

The Nuggets have been sloppier than the Lakers. If they played with their heads, any 'waking up' by the Lakers will be moot.

[Jacko]

The Lakers are getting burned by slow rotations on D. They aren't even in position when the Nuggets are getting those wide open dunks. It's more to do with their crap defense than softness defending.

I have yet to see Nene score off an ISO play this entire game. All his pts are assisted.

[crc21209]

STFU up you first round losing 4 ring faggot. I only stated facts to the other idiot Sperm fan that said Lakers got more calls. Go take a swim in that dirty riverwalk and cool off.

Somebody needs to fucking chill out...:lol

Yes, great argument..you are a very knowledgeable poster, and I appreciate your contribution to this forum..

[crc21209]

:lol at Mark Jackson calling Nene NeNA!! :lol

[crc21209]

Four fouls on Bynum already...this guy just cant stay in a game.

[HarlemHeat37]

wow, that was horrible D by Denver..

[DPG21920]

lol odom.

[Libri]

Odom :lmao

[HarlemHeat37]

Denver really make horrible decisions, it's unreal..

what the hell is Jones doing?

[dirk4mvp]

Carmelo is my hero.

[dirk4mvp]

Can they review that? That was a 3.

[HarlemHeat37]

bad decision there by Billups..

Ariza's only form of defense is playing the lanes, no rush there..

[Banzai]

Can they review that? That was a 3.

ya it looked like a 3.

[TheNextGen]

I like how Melo gets a T for saying something, but Kobe is allowed to jump up and down, screaming like a 5 y/o.

No biased reffing here. Definitely not.

stfu...all the Lakers players are in foul trouble.

[TampaDude]

Wow...good game so far. Those 9 missed FTs by Denver are gonna come up huge at the end, though...book it.

[HarlemHeat37]

Wow, they didn't give them the extra point for the 3?

[resistanze]

Ariza - The Carmelo stopper.

[resistanze]

WHY is Kenyon shooting? Stick to freebie dunks.

[HarlemHeat37]

weak call on Nene..it had no effect on the play at all..

[pauls931]

How many fuckin steps is Kobe allowed?
