This was game 4...

No this was a practice game. The real game 4 is tomorrow. The Lakers may even show up for that game. God knows they aren't tired for putting any effort into this one.

The Lakers are going to go to the Cleveland game?

I bet against them for assurance. I still 100% want them to win, but get paid so im not as mad if they don't.

agree.

i guess if kobe doesn't swcore 40 or more we lose

If I had paid a ticket to watch the game today I would claim my money back, first to PJ to throw out the game, then to the refs because nobody pays for watch their "homie whistle show" and then LO, Vujacic, Fisher, C. Anthony, Luke Walton, etecetera for be a bunch of crabs tonight.

we were still in the damn game until refs started to called it close. come on after all the rough stuff that has gone on in the series, they were calling ticky tack fouls down the stretch on luke walton and that basically doomed our chance. oh yeah, phil took Bynum out at the 9:30 mark of 3rd qtr was the beginning of the end if you look at it from a bigger picture.

20 point blowout is why people are upset.

I'm not upset... i won money, bet Denver to cover. C'mon now, we've all seen these lakers take games off. This was their game off.

Exactlky and thats why I dont see why everyone is all upset. The team doesnt win games that they dont have to win...that is obvious by now.

Now, if we lose on Wednesday, then I'll be concerned but in their eyes. They came for a split and got in Saturday..today was just a game to play a game.

Nope. If the Lakers had won both at home and were up 2-0 in this series then splitting in Denver wiould be a great thing. Going to Denver tied 1-1 the Lakers should have been thinking take both not split.

by doing what exactly?

What's the point when the team doesn't make stops?

clearly this game is fixed. there is no way the "league" wanted us to win. a 3-1 advantage going back to LA means the series will be over in 5 games. so this is somewhat expected. i just hoped it wouldn't be this obvious.

"dontay jones, dirty??? no waaaaayyyy (sarcasm)...."

Thats what he said on his twitter.

Not surprised, he's real good friends with Kobe. I'm pretty sure I even saw him at a game last series.

Helping you eat crow my friend.

We had a shot in the fourth, but when they fouled out Luke and turned it into a freethrow parade, you kind of knew that there was no beating the refs on this one.

The Lakers lack of energy on the boards is something to think about, but don't think some of those boards weren't off of illegal plays inside. The Nuggets were allowed to beat us up inside yet again.
Phil quick hooking Drew was another bad move...and he put him back in too late. In his stead we got a Lamar who easily had his worst/lowest activity playoff game in a while.

Denver running up the score and acting like the Celtics in Game 6 is going to come back to haunt them seriously though. Some of the T's the Nuggets picked up were quite interesting...LOL.

Magic is right. Where is LO?

Leftymo I don't know if I say it enough but you are probably the smartest, most honest person on this fourm (Not saying everyone else isn't awesome, smart and honest) I agree with every post you make!

I think an experienced team or championship team would do that. Or if LA was playing an obviously inferior opponent, like last year against San Antonio.


If LA wins a title this year, I fully expect next year to be the year where they come in and take 2 on the road.

This team is too mentally weak, frail, and not driven to do it.

They show up when they have to, which should be enough to get to the finals.

If the series is over then LEAVE and stop posting.

There's a reason I have this guy on my ignore list. Worst poster on the forum.

Good advice

i turned it off at the 2 min. mark, they really ran up the score? what a bunch of dumba**. i can understand why the Celtics did it because that was the last game of the season ain't no game after that no mo (as kmart would've said it), but running up the score in a 2-2 series with the next game in LA? bad move Nuggs.

Phil threw in the towel on this game really early by keeping Kobe out in the first part of the fourth.

Game 3 was the real prize in this swing.....he wasn't going to exhaust Kobe on a game he knew the refs had already penciled in for the Nuggets.

you do realize i was hammered when posting that night right? all I learned is not to bet when drunk.


and what about today? Granted I didn't come on msg boards claiming a loss, but I knew it was coming.

Where is LO?? Where is Fish?? Where is Ariza?? Sasha?

Drew on Defense is a joke. Try to alter shots, not strip a guy when he goes up. Move your damn feet.

AGAIN -- the Nuggets are THE BETTER TEAM. Period. Unless Kobe and Pau go off, the Nuggets may win this in 6.

The ROLE PLAYERS have no shown up ONCE in this series, other than Ariza's steels and a couple of his 3s.

We are lucky not to have been swept.

and how exactly is that "helping?"

you need to re-look up the definition.
