Tues 5/8 - Lakers vs Nuggets - Game 5 - Predictions/Comments

Bynum is a JOKE!!!!!!

Way to feed that bonehead confidence.

Bynum dominated by McGee

well, this game reminds me why we probably won't win the championship this year. just when i was starting to feel a little bit good.

Lakers being embarassed

So on halftime my internet connection went down. Just came back.
One question: HOW?

Nobody else on the floor wants the shot. They ALL defer to Kobe. Grow a pair of balls and make a play either for yourself or someone else.

And what's your solution. Throw it down to Gasol? I could probably guard that guy in the post and he'll fade away over me and I'm 5'11".

Please.

He should stop taking them altogether. No one is forcing him to take them.

If you are a 28% shooter why are you taking 5 3's a game?

Makes no sense.

Dude c'mon. I'm with you I don't want him taking threes, but when you're getting the ball 5 feet from the three point line with 5 seconds on the shot clock, you don't have many other options.

"If I just rebound and defend we're a better team, note to self"

Really Bynum? you seem to get more and more frustated as you're not getting the ball. you're not playing any D.

Well, I hope we don't get this kind of effort in game 7. A first round exit will hasten the sweeping changes that will be coming in the next year or two.

drew no post game interview bc of his comments on how its an easy game...which karl used to fire up his Cinderella story nuggets. good job drew...really backed up your words

i call this "andrew bynum, close out games are easy"

Bynum and Gasol each have had pathetic displays of effort out there.

What did he do?.... he was blocking out 2 Nuggets when McGee tipped the ball away..... Pau was the one standing in space not close to anyone watching.....

and what bout the Lob Mcgee got a few possesion earlier? Dude sure likes to talk big but when push comes to shove, he just likes to shove

Barnes took 14shots?
Pau's got 6 rebounds?
McGee has 19 & 12?
Wtf

struggled round 1 last year only to get swept round 2.

i sense a trend

I realize that too but dont appreciate the effort

this game turns out to complete joke . wow one bad defense possesion after another. wtf . arte you kidding me. mcgee plays bynum out tonight on a very easy close out game like drew said. yeah everything is coming easy but for the opposite site . lakers not playing defense and totally choking on offense with one hoisted long shot after another. okc must be laughing about that. they got rest and their opponents battle it out in 6 or 7 games. nice effort lakers

I shouldn't be surprised by this effort. They had games like this in the regular season. What makes me think that anything has changed just because it's the playoffs? Their usual pattern of inconsistency, passing to Kobe every possession, not playing defense, lack of effort and hustle, etc. This is a second round team at best. Overeactionary? Maybe.

signs...of...life? we've been fooled too easily before.
