LBJ, kobe, Duncan, or CP3

Duncan

[ElNono]

mcgee is pretty dumb, tbh

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

Heat 2.0 tbh

[Bonner4MVPzz]

Duncan

I see, good choice me too.

[HarlemWelch37]

LOL McGee sucks

[rayjayjohnson]

Fuck LA beaches look shitty

[Nathan89]

Nene could help. Mcgee is garbage.

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

It's all good. One qtr to settle the nerves and then the nuggets will score 35 in the 2nd :smokin

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

Nene could help. Mcgee is garbage.

:lmao @ nene helping in the playoffs

[Mugen]

Fuck LA beaches look shitty

Better than Denver beaches, tbh.

[Bonner4MVPzz]

Fuck LA beaches look shitty

When compared to the beautiful South Cali beaches, they are

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

Better than Denver beaches, tbh.

Australian beaches >>>> Anything LA has to offer :ihit :toast

[Bonner4MVPzz]

Better than Denver beaches, tbh.

But Ausi has some of the best ones i hear.....

[midnightpulp]

It's all good. One qtr to settle the nerves and then the nuggets will score 35 in the 2nd :smokin

I'm not watching the game and I have to follow it via ESPN's play-by-play, but are the missed layups a result of Nugget nerves or the Lakers' length bothering their shot?

[Mugen]

Australian beaches >>>> Anything LA has to offer :ihit :toast

Probably. But they're not the Australian Nuggets.

[ElNono]

tbh, I wanna see what the Lakers bench looks like

[rayjayjohnson]

But Ausi has some of the best ones i hear.....

They sure do

[LkrFan]

Gallo is a flopping bitch. SMH

[Venti Quattro]

tbh, I wanna see what the Lakers bench looks like

shit

[Mugen]

Kobe's kept it close tbh.

[LkrFan]

I'm not watching the game and I have to follow it via ESPN's play-by-play, but are the missed layups a result of Nugget nerves or the Lakers' length bothering their shot?

Both. Mostly the latter though tbh.

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

Nice to see Gallo attack. No one can stop him

[jeebus]

Steve Blake still carrying the Lakers.

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

I'm not watching the game and I have to follow it via ESPN's play-by-play, but are the missed layups a result of Nugget nerves or the Lakers' length bothering their shot?
Bit of both.

Lakers playing good D

[Bonner4MVPzz]

Steve Blake still carrying the Lakers.

the usual...

[LkrFan]

They sure do

Most Aussie women are easy. They love the brothers. :toast

[ElNono]

lol denver
lol jitters

[Mugen]

Typical Laker game at Staples. Nuggs will probably get back in this in the 4th and the Lakers will pull a W out of their ass.

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

McGee is useless

[Bonner4MVPzz]

Most Aussie women are easy. They love the brothers. :toast

More power to ya.

[jeebus]

Steve Blake still carrying the Lakers.

[ElNono]

lol riding Blake

[ElNono]

Blake unconscious :lmao

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

This team is so damn useless at the 3 pt coverage

[LkrFan]

B-Rabbit! :rollin

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

Lol game over

Nice win Lakers

[ElNono]

tbh, Denver should stick to that... if Blake beats you, you tip your hat and move to the next game... he ain't winning LA a 7 game series

[jeebus]

:lol ABC censors too slow

[Bynumite]

Destroyed by white Stevey lol.

[Bonner4MVPzz]

I swear Steve Blake is Mac Millers older brother....

[Mugen]

Lol game over

Nice win Lakers

:lol relax bro. It's the lakers. Nuggs will be back in it by the end of the 3rd.

I'd let Steve Blake shoot that all series long, tbh.

[LkrFan]

More power to ya.

I take it you are a faggot. No? :downspin:

[shyne]

Denver sucks, this will be a sweep.

[WeNeedLength]

Blake with 3 more points in 9 less minutes that Kobe. Holy shit.. lmao

[BRHornet45]

I see, good choice me too.

I'm just hoping the Spurs can fill up their upper level in the arena considering you can buy their playoff tickets for $2-5.

[WeNeedLength]

And Bynum has zero shots with zero points and the Lakers have this big of a lead. All hail MVP Blake.

[WeNeedLength]

I'm just hoping the Spurs can fill up their upper level in the arena considering you can buy their playoff tickets for $2-5.

:sleep

[LkrFan]

Blake with 3 more points in 9 less minutes that Kobe. Holy shit.. lmao

By design. He's just (luckily) making shots. I mean, who gears their defense up to stop Blake? :lol

[Venti Quattro]

If Blake plays like this and helps win LA the championship, I'm going to find him and give him anything he wants.

[jeebus]

MB buried Bynum's confidence in a corn field in that OKC game.

[Bonner4MVPzz]

I take it you are a faggot. No? :downspin:

nope, but i dont see how you got that assumption by saying 'more power to ya'

[Venti Quattro]

MB buried Bynum's confidence in a corn field in that OKC game.

He needed to be taught a lesson.

[ElNono]

there's LA bench

[Mugen]

If Blake plays like this and helps win LA the championship, I'm going to find him and give him anything he wants.

If Blake keeps this up, you should be more worried bout the world coming to an end tbh :lol

[LkrFan]

Hill out there hustling

[resistanze]

Barnes is an asshat.

[WeNeedLength]

Holy shit Brewer's hairline... :rollin:rollin:rollin:rollin:rollin:rollin

[Bynumite]

Barnes with the back to back dumb plays :lol

[Mugen]

Jordan Hill = not white

That alone should have gotten em the spot over Murph and McBob.

[jeebus]

Uh oh.

[LkrFan]

How did Barnes miss that layup? 4-point play on the other end? SMH

[ElNono]

det bench :lol

[Venti Quattro]

What the fuck is Matt Barnes thinking?

[Bynumite]

4 point game... just like that.

[LkrFan]

Pau fading away on non-defense playing, 4 inches shorter, gimpy as Harrington. WTF?

[resistanze]

Pau fading away on non-defense playing, 4 inches shorter, gimpy as Harrington. WTF?

[Venti Quattro]

lol midget scored a goal after almost two weeks. Just checked the Barca-Rayo game

[Bynumite]

Ariza with the slam.

[LkrFan]

Ebanks! That's how you finish son.

[resistanze]

Andre Miller RIPPING shit outta Gasol's hands :lol

[Bynumite]

That's exactly what the Lakers need, bigs shooting jumpers smh.

[rayjayjohnson]

LA doing a good job stifling the nuggets on the break

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

AA came to play

[jeebus]

:lol Sessions ignoring Kobe

[Venti Quattro]

K:lolme

[rayjayjohnson]

We built brick city on kiiiirby's shot

[WeNeedLength]

Why does JVG sound so damn depressed?

[resistanze]

Mozgov just rocked Kirby :lmao

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

gallo!

[shyne]

Kobe needs to check himself out, or quit shooting

[Venti Quattro]

We built brick city on kiiiirby's shot

:lol Starship

[Mugen]

Devin Ebanks carrying Kobe right now.

[ElNono]

lol garbage ty lawson

[LkrFan]

Lawesome with the golden goose egg! :lol

[rayjayjohnson]

I'm amazed we're this close right now

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

Ty is going to dunk on those two next time, book it :smokin

[LkrFan]

Devin Ebanks carrying Kobe right now.

I know it's only _enver, but he looks confident out there. Me likey. :tu

[Venti Quattro]

Kbe has no O today :lol :lol :lol

[LkrFan]

I'm amazed we're this close right now

In the words of ElNoNo: "det LA bench"

[Killakobe81]

Mehh typical 1st round opener only truly good one was okc vs mavs

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

I hate playoff time. I get all optimistic for an upset, and then I watch the Nuggs for a half and realize there is no chance :lol

[Venti Quattro]

:lmao Kobe
:lmao heat-chuck

[BRHornet45]

Kobe shooting his usual pathetic ass percentage (2 of 8 so far), but notice how the refs are making sure to keep his points up with phantom calls sending him to the freebie line.

[Mugen]

Nuggs need to start the pick n roll a lot farther away from the basket.

[LkrFan]

Gallo wouldn't have survived in the '80s NBA.

[rayjayjohnson]

Good to see coch potato head got tix for his brother right behind him

[Killakobe81]

Bad decision by sessions needs to shoot that. And I was right about Gallo shitty defender but an 80s throwback sf ...

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

Lol KoME getting mad coz AA is owning him!

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

Kobe shooting his usual pathetic ass percentage (2 of 8 so far), but notice how the refs are making sure to keep his points up with phantom calls sending him to the freebie line.

Amen son

[Venti Quattro]

lolololololol Kobe meltdown

[LkrFan]

Nuggs need to start the pick n roll a lot farther away from the basket.

Who you rooting for bruh? :lol

[Mugen]

B-30????

[Mugen]

Who you rooting for bruh? :lol

:lol I can never root for the Lakers

[LkrFan]

Sessions busting Ty's ass. :lol

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

So lucky it is only 10

[Killakobe81]

Kobe shooting like ass ... Nice passing though. Love the impact of Devin tha dude and Blake ...

[WeNeedLength]

Kobe 2-10

Rest of team 18-33

Discuss.

[Venti Quattro]

2/10 :lmao

[BRHornet45]

sons come on Kobe has to at least keep up his 27% field goal shooting average against the Nuggets this season! is that too much to ask????

so far he is shooting 20%

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

Sessions busting Ty's ass. :lol

I can't imagine anyone guessed that the leading scorers would be ebanks and gallo :lol

[rayjayjohnson]

S'ok, we have to light up though. Catch fire from three

[LkrFan]

Its early, but:

Sessions: 3-5 (1-1 downtown), 7 points, 2 assists, +14
Lawesome: 0-4 goose egg, several shots altered/swatted, -11

:toast

[Venti Quattro]

This is McGee's first playoff game right?

[Mugen]

More Mozgov, Less Javale.

[BRHornet45]

Kobe was awarded 6 free point opportunities from the NBA in the first half. all of which were bogus/phantom calls to help boost his total points scored so that the media can spin it in their favor.

sons if Kobe got 6 free point opportunities in the first half, how many do you expect him to get in the second half (especially if the game stays relatively close)?

I say at least 10 more freebies

[LkrFan]

sons come on Kobe has to at least keep up his 27% field goal shooting average against the Nuggets this season! is that too much to ask????

so far he is shooting 20%

...and with the 13th pick of the 1996 NBA draft, the Charlotte Hornets select Kobe Bean Bryant.

...then they traded him for Vlade Divac!?! :lmao :lmao :lmao

I'm tired of reading you blab about free throws. You're like Giuseppe-lite.

[BRHornet45]

I predict to hear a lot of this in the second half ...

"Kobe drives in, drops back, fade away!!!! off the rim ..... wait there was a foul called!"

[ElNono]

I predict to hear a lot of this in the second half ...

"Kobe drives in, drops back, fade away!!!! off the rim ..... wait there was a foul called!"

son, you're a visionary

[Killakobe81]

Besides some nice passing Kobe not the story ... Get him out your mouths he sucked on offense ... Move on. Ebanks, Blake and Bynum were the stars.

[midnightpulp]

Told all of you that Potato Head's style would work well during the playoffs. The Lakers have the league's highest scoring team at 40 points right now. Another underrated coaching move of his was to insert Hill into the rotation.

[rayjayjohnson]

True. Everyone is scared of the predator

[Killakobe81]

I know we have spacing issues but why wr posting Kobe on a great former Bruin like AA when Pau has height on Faried and Al H?

[ButtHurt Committee]

I predict to hear a lot of this in the second half ...

"Kobe drives in, drops back, fade away!!!! off the rim ..... wait there was a foul called!"

Have you found a replacement team yet?:rollin

[ElNono]

If Lawson can't figure out how to help his team soon, this series might be over pretty quickly, tbh

[Venti Quattro]

great former Bruin :lol

[ButtHurt Committee]

manipuppy...

[Mugen]

Afflalo has fouled Kobe everytime apparently :lol

[Killakobe81]

Refs not giving calls either way Kobe needs to stop bitching

[ElNono]

ty lawson smh

[Venti Quattro]

Kobe's shooting has been better this half, thankfully.

[ElNono]

just wow

[Venti Quattro]

T:lolchnical

[ElNono]

stretch 4

[Venti Quattro]

Pau with the goods

[NuGGeTs-FaN]

Nice win Lakers

Kobe still sucks but the other guys came to play

[ElNono]

lol denver

[Killakobe81]

Great Reffing not bailing out anyone not even Kobe or Pau

[mavsfan1000]

Lakers are better without Artest.

[ElNono]

so, does Mike Brown goes to his bench?

[ElNono]

Karl finally wakes up

[Mugen]

:lol Denver

[Killakobe81]

Bynum owning the paint on defense

[BRHornet45]

lol Kobe has 9 free point opportunities, yet the rest of the Lakers team only has 2

sons how does a jump shooter get more free point opportunities at the line than the big guys beating and banging in the paint?

[LkrFan]

7 swats by Baby Drew. Defense and rebounding should be his priority.

[LkrFan]

so, does Mike Brown goes to his bench?

You want det lead to shrink? :lol

[rayjayjohnson]

Ugh. I'm going to work

[Paranoid Pop]

Looks like our first game vs the Lakers, painful to watch tbh.

[spurs_fan_in_exile]

Kobe Bonner killing it on the +/-.

[ElNono]

lol Mik:lol Br:lolwn pretending he's coaching

[Venti Quattro]

Ughhhhhhhhhh Kobe

[ElNono]

wow, now they can't go to the bench

[Venti Quattro]

8-:lol run just like that...

[LkrFan]

Mc:lolee

[ElNono]

tbh, I expected more from trash bag mcgee

[Mugen]

Sucks that Pau is a laker cuz i'm a fan.

[Brazil]

so kobe 5 / 15 lakers still 50% FG this game

[LkrFan]

Baby Drew needs 3 more blocks for his first playoff triple double. :lol

[Black&Silver]

that's what happens when you got a team full of role players. How many players on the denver nuggets would start for the lakers?

[Mugen]

Baby Drew needs 3 more blocks for his first playoff triple double. :lol

Yup and then needs 10 more assists for 1st playoff quadruple double

[Brazil]

Baby Drew needs 3 more blocks for his first playoff triple double. :lol

and 2 pts for good measure

[Venti Quattro]

that's what happens when you got a team full of role players. How many players on the denver nuggets would start for the lakers?

Lawson.

[Brazil]

that's what happens when you got a team full of role players. How many players on the denver nuggets would start for the lakers?

at least 2

[Venti Quattro]

at least 2

lol no

[Brazil]

Lawson.

and probably a SF

[Killakobe81]

Our bench is just to give minutes if they maintain lead that is just a bonus ...

[Venti Quattro]

and probably a SF

no. Barnes/Artest are the pecking order

[Brazil]

lol no

lol yes you dont gali vs. ebanks, mwp or barnes ?

[Venti Quattro]

lol yes you dont gali vs. ebanks, mwp or barnes ?

No. LA already has enough offense in the floor. And they already have a big softy. No need to add another one

[Killakobe81]

Nice flop by Brewer they havent called that all game. I dont get why they are posting Kobe, he does not have a CLEAR advantage over Brewer height wise or Afflalo strength wise ...

[Brazil]

no. Barnes/Artest are the pecking order

:lol even faried would be better than barnes or artest

you could aldso make a case for a SG starter :lol depends what you value the most

[Mugen]

Boobs with a great game, tbh.

[Venti Quattro]

Nice flop by Brewer they havent called that all game. I dont get why they are posting Kobe, he does not have a CLEAR advantage over Brewer height wise or Afflalo strength wise ...

They can't post him up.

[Brazil]

No. LA already has enough offense in the floor. And they already have a big softy. No need to add another one

put faried then

[Killakobe81]

Sessions also neds to stop over dribbling againts Brewer he is a good defender.

[Kuestmaster]

Lakers are so dirty

[Darth_Pelican]

Barnes looks like that cell mate that every prisoner has nightmares of getting.

[Venti Quattro]

BRHornet45, where are you to announce that Denver has 10 more freethrows than LA?

[ElNono]

Denver needs to hit those 3s... 13 pt game going into the 4th...

[Mugen]

Not sure if the game should be closer than it should cuz Denver has missed a lot of free throws/open jumpers.

Or if the Lakers should be up by 20+ if Kirby was coaching instead of playing.

[ElNono]

Also, I expect Mike Brown to run the starters all the way to the end...

[Brazil]

Denver needs to hit those 3s... 13 pt game going into the 4th...

copy paste of spurs game

[Venti Quattro]

lol you faggot louisiana redneck disappearing

[Killakobe81]

I love Afflalo, but he will never be as good as Kobe ...I would take Lawson over Sessions but Lawson seems to have lost confidence in his outside shot ...so it's not as wide as a gap as yall make it out to be. I would take Gallo over our Sf's but his defense is weak. I would also talke Miller as backup PG over Blake.

[TDMVPDPOY]

bynum might finish the game with a triple double, only 2 blocks away

[Venti Quattro]

Goudelock should get some PT.

[ElNono]

nevermind, there's the bench

[Venti Quattro]

Hmm 11 point game.

[Killakobe81]

McGee sucks ...

[ElNono]

:lol McG:lole

[Mugen]

lol Mcgee

[Bynumite]

McGoo is beyond turrible.

[Mugen]

wow I hope Matt Barnes dies of AIDS alone in a heroin den.

[Kuestmaster]

McGee is useless in offense

[Brazil]

I love Afflalo, but he will never be as good as Kobe ...I would take Lawson over Sessions but Lawson seems to have lost confidence in his outside shot ...so it's not as wide as a gap as yall make it out to be.

here we go

this is a post I can agree with

[Venti Quattro]

Why did Denver trade Nene again?

[ElNono]

denver went small and is getting murdered

[midnightpulp]

You ain't told nobody shit... pussy.

Log into your pink account...pussy.

Man, Kori really fucked your shit up with that :lol

[ElNono]

wow I hope Matt Barnes dies of AIDS alone in a heroin den.

:lol

[Brazil]

Why did Denver trade Nene again?

cauz they are clueless

[Kuestmaster]

Refs have been home cooking all the 2nd half

[Killakobe81]

nevermind, there's the bench

Dont see why you care so much. Lakers may not ever reach the Spurs and even if they do Spurs are the favorites in the West along with OKC ...

Denver's ceiling is 2 games this round ...

[ElNono]

McGee is another monkeyball player.... half the blocks are useless and his go to move is the alley oop

[BRHornet45]

all but maybe 4-6 of Denver's free throws have been completely legit sons. they are getting hacked like crazy the entire game.

[Brazil]

Denver will probably steal a game in this serie going nuts on the 3 pts line but this serie wont go further than 5

[Venti Quattro]

Refs have been home cooking all the 2nd half

Typical grey spurfan response. Please watch the game.

[LkrFan]

Yawn

[LkrFan]

BRHornet45, where are you to announce that Denver has 10 more freethrows than LA?

:lol

[ElNono]

Dont see why you care so much. Lakers may not ever reach the Spurs and even if they do Spurs are the favorites in the West along with OKC ...

Denver's ceiling is 2 games this round ...

I care from an entertainment factor. 9/10 times that unit is going to lose the lead and we get another nice close game.

Don't disagree with the 2 game assessment after watching ty lawson drop a mammoth egg out there today. He's going to have figure something out quick or pack his shit soon.

[Brazil]

kobe shouldnt go back in this game its over

[Mugen]

Karl has coached a dumb game and Denver has played even stupider.

[Killakobe81]

BR with the butthurt flowing ...

I think refs did a good job not bailing Kobe with calls, T'ing him up for excessive bitching. Game has been physical Pau, bynum have had contact not called, ditto AA and Lawson ...

[Kuestmaster]

Typical grey spurfan response. Please watch the game.

I'm watching the game Ventti. And don't bring the GNSF shit because probably I've watched more basketball games than you think. I live in Barcelona and I can't post always in game time, that's the reason I don't have a higher post count.

And btw I like your avatar

[rayjayjohnson]

Nice choke job against Chelsea tbh

[BRHornet45]

I think refs did a good job not bailing Kobe with calls

nah son they only bailed him out with 9 bullshit free throws. nearly half of his points (as usual) have come from the free throw line all the while shooting a pathetic 31% from the field.

they only T'd him up because he wanted more free throws.

[rayjayjohnson]

Karl has coached a dumb game and Denver has played even stupider.

What would you do differently?

[Killakobe81]

Hill is our 3rd best big ...

He is limited on offense but I like his hustle and his size ...

[ElNono]

wow... that wasn't a travel?

[Venti Quattro]

Holy shit Barca really put the hurt on Rayo. 7-0 lol
