Lakers vs. Nuggets

[MickZagger]

I'm torn. I can't ever root for the Lakers, yet Denver is our competition in the division and I can't stand the Nuggets cast of characters.

Who the hell do you root for?

 

[dpc]

Lakers... they will ge ttheres this year no matter what. THey are a good team and will likely be number one in the conference, nothign will change that. I vote for the lakers winning

 

[MickZagger]

I think I'm just going to watch it hoping for a bloodbath. I want to see some fights.

 

[dpc]

yeah, hope for some big pacer/piston type suspensions

 

[THE HCP]

GO LAKERS!

 

[andalusian]

Asteroid?

 

[Toko]

We got this

 

[Eastoff]

you just have to hope for mutual destruction. Sometimes it's nice when a team gets built up, then when you get to play them you can tear them down. Look that much better!

 

[Natebishop3]

I'm rooting for Denver to lose. I want sole possession of the division.

It's really conflicting for me, as well. Maybe I root for the L*kers just this once. All alone atop the NW Division has a really nice ring to it at this point.

Yes, better way of putting it. Root for the Nugz to lose.

 

[ABM]

Man, Ty Lawson is a BLUR!!!

Afflalo is playing a whale of a game on Bryant. The new "Kobe stopper"!

There's no such thing as a Kobe stopper. And it hasn't been all Afflalo, he's getting some great help every time he posts up.

For certain, I was being facetious regarding the KS comment. Nonetheless, Afflalo's playing a great game.

 

[ABM]

I still love seeing the L*kers lose. Denver up by 23 heading into the 4th. Kobe held scoreless in the 3rd.

 

[Nate4Prez]

Lakers only score 8 points in the third quarter.

 

[Eastoff]

excuse my french, but HOLY SHIT! WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON!? I stopped following at half, and I come back and check and it's 71-98!

 

[julius]

They must have gone to the same school that New Orleans and Portland did for the 1st quarter of tonights game.

 

[PHXBlazer1]

Adam Morrison is very, very bad.

 

[Nikolokolus]

Draft the Stache!

Denver is scaring me a bit. I don't think they'll relinquish the division title as easily as all the experts assumed... I commented in another thread how road heavy their opening schedule was, and now they return home to drub the Lakers. At least they narrowly beat us when we were playing like crap.

 

[KingSpeed]

I rooted for the Nuggets. I want more than the division. I want the #1 seed. I'm glad the Lakers lost.

I concur - the Nuggs seem pretty solid and have A LOT of talent. I think it'll be a hard fought battle for first between us and them so I don't think they're going anywhere. Unlike last year, we've been pretty blessed with a soft schedule. Denver just crushed the Flakers (even if it's the second of a back-to-back, it's still pretty impressive) and now have something like 7 out of 9 at home. They are pretty scary.

And man . . . how good would T. Lawson look in red and black???

Not impressed. No Pau Gasol.

Not impressed. No Pau Gasol.

I'm not crowning them (the Nuggs) Division Champs based on that game only - hell, I beat the crap out of the Flakers last year and look at what that got us! You can't deny that they have a ton of talent on that team.

To your point, ask the Suns how much the Flakers missed Pau.
