Game 3: Lakers @ Nuggets

[NewJerSpur]

Kenyon Martin is the dumbest motherfucker in this league. He makes Odom look like Stephen Hawking.

:lol

[quickerblade]

watch the nuggets win!

[resistanze]

DON'T let him inbound! Jesus!

[baseline bum]

KMart can't get the fucking ball in. Fuck that faggot.

[j.dizzle]

how many missed free-throws is that now..15-20..jesus christ man they're called FREE throws for a reason

[resistanze]

The only person dumber than Kenyon is George Karl.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Kenyon Martin is the dumbest motherfucker in this league. He makes Odom look like Stephen Hawking.

Karl is better off with Nene and Birdman... I like birdman for some reason. ...

[Armando]

Why is Bridman not in the game? Really KMart?

[resistanze]

WHAT THE FUCK DID I SAY? I told you.

[NewJerSpur]

Wow...again with Ariza? LOLOL!!!

[quickerblade]

Ariza

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

oh well, my prediction didn't happen because Nuggets are too stupid to execute

[j.dizzle]

athreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeza..god damn give that man a raise..too bad he'll miss a FT

[Armando]

Fuck

[ace3g]

ok just like game 1, Nuggets can't make a simple inbound pass

[Libri]

Kenyon Martin is the dumbest motherfucker in this league. He makes Odom look like Stephen Hawking.

Stephen Hawking is smarter. :nerd

[ginobme]

wow epic fail by denver

[Allanon]

Helll yeah!!!!!!!! Game one redux!!!!

[baseline bum]

George Karl is this decade's answer to Bob Hill. What the fuck did he ever call that fucking timeout for? You stupid fuck Karl. You deserve shitheads like Martin on your team.

[benefactor]

lol Martin. No team with this douche on it should be successful.

[ElNono]

See what I mean? Karl is too dumb to draw a play

[Allanon]

AREEEEZZZZAAAAAAA is fucking stud.

[j.dizzle]

odommmmmmmmmmmmmm fuck you dude seriously

[TampaDude]

I got home just in time to see the start of the 4th quarter, with the Nuggets up by 7. I told my wife the Nuggets would not score a FG until the Lakers took the lead. I was right. She was so pissed off...she couldn't believe it.

Lakers win this game by 6. :toast

[KidCongo]

I bet no one on the Nuggets wants to inbound the ball for the rest of the series.

[baseline bum]

I'm done with picking Denver. I'm taking LA to win this series. I'm taking Cleveland or Orlando if Denver pulls this out.

[NewJerSpur]

See what I mean? Karl is too dumb to draw a play

:tu

[resistanze]

They should've trapped him in the corner, idiots.

[Allanon]

Nuggz with 1 timeout left.

[Capt Bringdown]

Lakers gonna close these sad-sack losers out 4 to 1.
This is the NBA, not street ball.
Nuggets are dumb, from their head coach on down. Unbelieveable.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Karl is stupid to make K - Mart the inbounds passer... bad coach

[NewJerSpur]

I bet no one on the Nuggets wants to inbound the ball for the rest of the series.

:lol

[TampaDude]

how many missed free-throws is that now..15-20..jesus christ man they're called FREE throws for a reason

...and yet the Lakers will still win this game. This game should have been a Lakers blowout. Denver is done. Lakers in 5.

[spurscenter]

This is where the Refs early Lakers favortism is paying off

everyone will blame the inbound pass but the Refs gave Lakers too many FT in 3rd quarter calling every single stupid b.s.

[benefactor]

Game over

[me15lo]

thats it. oh well...

[Armando]

See Rashard Lewis thats how you defend the inbounds pass

[j.dizzle]

Kobe supermanning that HO

[NewJerSpur]

Denver implosion imminent. Timvp was right. Hope he wasn't right about Orlando, LOL.

[Allanon]

Dahntay gets his money worth with his fouls. :lol

[baseline bum]

Too much Kobe and too much KMart tonight.

[NewJerSpur]

See Rashard Lewis thats how you defend the inbounds pass

:tu

It still hurts. :depressed

[Libri]

Denver playing smart is to much to ask.

[ginobme]

See Rashard Lewis thats how you defend the inbounds pass

I"m sure that was Ron Jeremy's fault.

[j.dizzle]

suck a dick nugggggets..yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa a

[Capt Bringdown]

This is where the Refs early Lakers favortism is paying off

everyone will blame the inbound pass but the Refs gave Lakers too many FT in 3rd quarter calling every single stupid b.s.

No, no, no...Nuggets shot too many 3's and early shot-clock jumpers instead of attacking the basket.

That and Kobe hit a monster 3 to kill the Nuggets. They're done!

[spurscenter]

Refs made out, no one will talk about the refs FT, since they will pin this on the inbound pass

[Allanon]

Great game for entertainment and the advancement of the Laker Championship run. This game for sure to be on the DVD.

[ginobme]

no, no, no...nuggets shot too many 3's and early shot-clock jumpers instead of attacking the basket.

that and kobe hit a monster 3 to kill the nuggets. They're done!

+100000000000000000

[NewJerSpur]

Denver playing smart is to much to ask.




Their IQ's lowered when they hit the mile-high air.

[myhc]

LOL @ the nugz. I'm guessing they want those 4 technicals back?

[jmanu20]

For those who wanted to call game 1 a "crushing" loss for DEN, this is the crushing loss. LA shot like complete ass from the free-throw line and DEN made some AWFUL mistakes down the stretch.

[jmanu20]

...and yet LA still won..

[NewJerSpur]

No, no, no...Nuggets shot too many 3's and early shot-clock jumpers instead of attacking the basket.

That and Kobe hit a monster 3 to kill the Nuggets. They're done!

That 3 proved insurmountable....the game was still in reach and went downhill after that.

[Armando]

Good job by the Refs. Way to take over the fucking game

[quickerblade]

Mr Big shot hahahahaha

[IronMexican]

The Lakers are trying to give me a fucking heart attack

[TampaDude]

The Lakers missed over a dozen FTs, and still won by 6.

The Nuggets just got EXPOSED tonight.

I fucking hate the Lakers, but they're going to be the 2009 NBA Champions. It's way fucking obvious now. Oh, well...

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

:lmao @ Denver thinking they have a shot at the title...

stupid teams have no business making the Finals.. At least the Lakers reasons for sucking on D is due to softness, not retardation..

[jmanu20]

Good job by the Refs. Way to take over the fucking game

The refs didn't make DEN choke another inbounds pass and make countless other stupid mistakes down the stretch. The refs also didn't make George Karl stay with K-Mart in favor of Birdman who was having a hell of a game.

[TampaDude]

FUCKING TOLD Y'ALL!!!!! :lmao

[IronMexican]

I am so fucking happy right now. I wish there was someone here who could buy me a 40.

[quickerblade]

hahahaa Nuggets. they really need to win there next game.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Ya Denver did well enough to overcome the Refs.. they're just too stupid to realize they have the edge on the Lakers on both offense and rebounds...

Denver would have been a better position this year if they replaced George Karl into this season.

[mattyc]

Awful mistakes from the Nuggets in the last few minutes.

[me15lo]

aint gonna blame nothing.

dumb fuckers should spend a whole day practicing how to inbound a ball.

[TampaDude]

hahahaa Nuggets. they really need to win there next game.

They won't. Lakers in 5.

Congrats Lakers...I can't stand y'all, but enjoy your title.

LOS ANGELES LAKERS = 2009 NBA CHAMPIONS!!! :toast

[poop]

refing was fine. Kobe just took over. hes the best, period. Denver still has a good shot if they win next game, which they certainly can

[poop]

a lot of cowardly spurs fans have been giving up and Praising the Lakers as the '09 champs.
what a bunch of soft bitches

Coming from a soft pink cocksucking faggot like you, it's a fucking compliment. :lmao

[Allanon]

aint gonna blame nothing.

You da man. :toast

[greenroom]

You could just see the refs playing by the script set by Stern. Nothing really out to cause a lot of friction, but in a physical game and you foul out Denvers best player and make him to where he is really not part of the game bacaue of foul trouble.

I smell the refs and the NBA doing some scripting for Kobe and the Cavs.

Look Denver did not help its self, but just to many calls that went against Denver that could of been called the same against the Lakers.

[Capt Bringdown]

I fucking hate the Lakers, but they're going to be the 2009 NBA Champions. It's way fucking obvious now. Oh, well...

Upsets are fun to think about, but the Nuggets aren't smart or disciplined enough to pull it off.

Nuggets = "Implosions are us."

[spurscenter]

see what I mean, they will pin this ALL on the inbounds pass

disregarding the FTA and the foul trouble they gave the Nuggets starters through the 2nd half and dictate pace

remember they called 8 straight fouls on Denver to get the Lakers at the line early.

Refs made out that Denver did that stupid inbounds pass.

See the box score.

Seriously, the Refs should have called a foul, a flagrant 2 and a technical on Areeeza for jumping in the way of the ball on that inbounds play.

So, are they gonna have Game 4 of the WCF or the WWE show at the Pepsi Center on Monday? Not that there's any real difference. :lol

how can a spurs fan congratulate the lakers, you think the lakers fans would do the same?

F the Lakers

45 FTS for Lakers

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

DON'T let him inbound! Jesus!

Judging by Carmelo's expression in the final minutes, this team's chemistry could easily turn south if they start pointing fingers at each other going into Monday...:lol

It's possible game 4 could be a Laker blow out, if they're not careful....

[TampaDude]

how can a spurs fan congratulate the lakers, you think the lakers fans would do the same?

F the Lakers

Yes.

[jmanu20]

how can a spurs fan congratulate the lakers, you think the lakers fans would do the same?

F the Lakers

Classy Spurs fans congratulate the Lakers, so I would tell the Lakers "way to man up in the 4th and play smart." True Spurs fans NEVER root for the Lakers, which I never do......

[spurscenter]

45 FTS for Lakers


and the den starters in foul trouble late 2nd half , then 3rd quarter was the ref show, they did pull back in the 4th as they always try to cover their tracks and make the box score as even as possible in the end but they couldnt on this one because it was that one sided.

Denver drove just as much as the Lakers and look at the FTA.

Its a pattern thats been the M.O. for the Refs for years.

There is many ways they control a game without it showing in the box score .

Remember when they were claming down on the Nuggets for being aggressive in the early 3rd quarter, 8 calls in a row for the Lakers. Got them to the line early .

Dont get me wrong G Karl is to me, a fatter Mike Dunleavy but still they had to fight through the Refs Bullshit.

There were so many calls that the Lakers benefit from.

Its always harder for the refs to call a foul on a drive by a Nugget but any Laker will get the same call on the other end.

See Pau Gasol and his soft shit, you touch him, you get called for a foul.

its Bullshit many times.

Denver was treated like the road team.

NBA is run by a marketing genius like Vince McMahon, its fate the two companies are in the spotlight right now.

[2Cleva]

Isn't not a conspiracy with the FTs LA took - Denver has done this all playoffs.

Here's a post I made elsewhere before the series



Denver plays D by overplaying the ball and going for steals as a team, Martin and Anderson going hard for blocked shots. It's not a man-to-man grind based on D principles like Houston is - more like the physical play and dare the refs to call it of Utah. Denver isn't close to Houston's or Utah's discipline, fouls without hesitation and is just aggressive, overly at times.

Look at what Dallas scored on Denver in the playoffs - 95, 105, 105, 119, 110. Yesterday, LA blew out Houston but only scored 89. Points are going to come very easy in this series.

Look at what Dallas, who was 26th in the NBA at FTA at 22.6 per game, attempted from the FT line.

Game 1 - 13
Game 2 - 30
Game 3 - 49
Game 4 - 43
Game 5 - 29

32.8 per. This on a team of jumpshooters with no post threat. Denver's philosophy of not giving up easy shots and taking hard fouls is not the same as Houston's of swarming with everyone playing solid D without fouling.

Now, compare that to what LA shot against Houston - 19, 26, 33, 18, 36, 20, 18. Only 24.2 to a team that shot 25.5 in the season. Not a sharp decrease when averaged out but 5 games were well under average.

LA (especially Pau) goes into a tank when they perceived they are getting fouled but not going to the line - they will get plenty of attempts against Denver.

History is repeating itself.

So far for LA in this series.

Game 1 - 24
Game 2 - 35
Game 3 - 45

Like I said before, Denver is like Utah, they foul like crazy and dare the refs to call it. They are also quick to foul to give up any easy attempts. All those FTs keep teams in a rhythm offensively.

When LA is strong with the ball, Denver picks up fouls. They commit a lot of dumb ones too. No conspiracy.

[TampaDude]

I knew as soon as Hollinger started riding Denver's nutz, they were doomed. :lol

:lol what a premature ejaculator. Idiot. :lmao

I knew you'd like that, bitch. :lol

[crc21209]

The story of this game was 32 points for LA in the 4th and 18 for Denver. NOT gonna happen again. Also 45 FTA's for LA and 31 for Denver when they were being as just as aggressive as LA. What a load of crap...

Yes, your analysis is a load of crap. It was really 39 to 31 FTA's cause the last three fouls were intentional to try and give themselves a chance. Also the Lakers missed FOURTEEN of those FT's while the Nuggets only missed five. The Nuggets took 27 threes, they weren't as aggressive as the Lakers, they were settling for a boat load of threes and made only 5 of them, that's why they lost.
