Re: WCF: Lakers vs. Nuggets Josh played well off the bench. Also, Pau wasn't too bad tonight 13 points, 14 boards, 3 assists, 2 blocks he played some good D when the game was winding down as well. He just needs more touches and has to be more aggressive.
Re: WCF: Lakers vs. Nuggets Awesome game! This is going to be one hell of a series. Carmelo vs. Kobe is going to be fun!
Re: WCF: Lakers vs. Nuggets I thought Kobe played excellent defense tonight, what a task having to defend Billups and Melo, but he did it.
Re: WCF: Lakers vs. Nuggets Kobe's a beast. Trev struggles defensively against fat pigs like Melo, Pierce, and Ron Ron. Pisses me off... but his ninja stealth is always there when we need it
Re: WCF: Lakers vs. Nuggets Kobe is ok. :[ Great play by Trev, looked like a wideout on that one. :O He did struggle on Melo tonight he's got to make some adjustments and not leave him open on the perimeter.
Re: WCF: Lakers vs. Nuggets Lol I was so disappointed with him when he bricked those two free throws towards the end of the game, at least he came back and hit the next two. For the playoffs his free throw shooting has been off somewhat. He's been close to the level he was playing at this season, although tonight was a bit of an off night as well.
Re: WCF: Lakers vs. Nuggets (Lakers lead 1-0) Pau is going to be a non-factor I think. Denver is too physical for him.
Re: WCF: Lakers vs. Nuggets (Lakers lead 1-0) That might be a stretch, he did board well and wasn't terrible against them this season. He can do better than this tonight. I think Drew can also perform better but he picked up all these quick fouls, whatever I'm not blaming him all for that.
Re: WCF: Lakers vs. Nuggets (Lakers lead 1-0) I didn't see the whole game, I heard the fouls were bullshit calls--at least, most of them. Gasol doesn't like contact. Denver is going to rape him all series. I think tonight's effort is what you're going to see from him.
Re: WCF: Lakers vs. Nuggets (Lakers lead 1-0) Lamar and Bynum had three fouls each before the end of the first half. At one point it was 29 Fts to 11 and the score was almost tied I think, or quite close throughout.
Re: WCF: Lakers vs. Nuggets (Lakers lead 1-0) I know Denver is Physical, but I think Pau can do a little better (I'm not saying he's a lock to explode) because their frontcourt doesn't have our length. Especially if we can get Drew into a better flow, I do think we can extract a significant amount more from him.
Re: WCF: Lakers vs. Nuggets (Lakers lead 1-0) Watching the HIGHLIGHTS, Denver completely dominated the LAKERS on the glass and in the paint.. BUT... WHO DO WE GOT? KOBE MUTHPHUCKIN BRYANT! Great Game by the entire DENVER TEAM, better game by KOBE. The rest of the LAKERS notably GASOL, ODOM, and BYNUM need to step their games up!!!

Re: WCF: Lakers vs. Nuggets (Lakers lead 1-0) We need a good win in game 2. This was too close for comfort and honestly we got lucky on the last few plays. Still... happy with it, considering we played with "emotion and hustle."
Re: WCF: Lakers vs. Nuggets (Lakers lead 1-0) We got lucky? WTF? How about we buckled down and turned it up when it mattered? I would say luck had little to do with it.
Re: WCF: Lakers vs. Nuggets (Lakers lead 1-0) Great game... showed that this team actually had some heart... too bad Bynum fouled out but at least played some good D alongside Pau.
