[fixxer]

Ugh....very bad start from the Lakers, and already down by 12....

[Mac4Lyfe]

Denver absolutely abusing the Fakeshow...

[jellobiafra]

Easy with the sweep talk guys. LMAO. It's the 1st quarter of the 1st game!

[reno cool]

so quiet in there. switching from hockey to this. It's like is anything happening here? Go Denver.

[paco]

Awesome start from melo

[shhhhh22]

Fantastic start for Nuggets... but there's still plenty of game left. Lakers gonna have a run here soon, just hoping Denver game withstand it!!

[Mac4Lyfe]

Carmelo has quietly been very underrated the past few years since his teams hasn't been able to get out of the 1st round. This guy has got to be the best scorer in the league right now.

Billups with 2 missed free throws... Wow, when has that happened?

[paco]

billups had under 54.5 1st qtr , so he missed both on purpose! 95% ft shooter

[nysmoneyman]

lakers are going to get swept.

no way

[mike17bball]

in game lines are treating this game as a coin toss....what you guys think?

[tsn101]

Seeing the Lakers not playing or even having the capability to play defense while still making it to the Conference Finals, gives hope to my beloved Raptors.

[shhhhh22]

wow, Denver missing tons of Free Throws.... why do i have a feeling this is going to come back and haunt them later...

[The General]

Keep on scoring keep on scoring

[j0hnnyv]

nuggets r so much better its not even funny.

[jasonjep]

Where is the defence?

[bobbyfk]

coming back

[paco]

Only a 3 pt game, lakers withstood denvers first jab

[paco]

Hahahaha , i told u gasol was a sissy, nene just shitted on him

[paco]

Wtf is wrong with billups ft shooting?

[Mac4Lyfe]

Billups misses 3 straight throws???

[seaborneq]

Not watching game yet, but keeping up on yahoo. Is Denver playing well or are the Lakers shitting themselves.

[mike17bball]

billups needs to start making damn free throws (2 for 5 so far)

[TeamNookMum]

looks like billups is coming back into his groove for fts

[Mac4Lyfe]

Billups have for years gotten the benefit of bullshit calls. He's a huge flopper and the refs let him get away with it. 2 straight trips to the line on bullshit calls. He's gotten the white glove treatment for years.

Laker's getting the bad end of the whistle.

[BobHarvey]

Denver fans...you need to chill. You guys had the Lakers being swept after the first quarter! There's still a lot of basketball to be played.

[paco]

i guess 1st half under is done?

[j0hnnyv]

lakers getting bad end of the whistle? huh

there is nothing shady about the whistles so far this game.

[j0hnnyv]

1st half under is a bad bet sorry. a brave bet at best.

[jjgold]

Denver looks like the better team. If Denver wins this game it will be 4-0.

7 GAMES

[BobHarvey]

No more "Lakers and NBA" conspiracy stuff, not after this first half. Maybe David Stern has changed his mind and wants Carmelo vs. Lebron.

very bold statement jj, very bold

That's real easy to say with 4-5 mins left in the half...

Have you looked at the box score??? denver has twice as many free throws and the Laker's are not fouling twice as much. Very simple. Billups got to the line twice on touch fouls and Odum has 3 fouls, 2 of which that were bad calls.

I want Denver to win this series even though I have a small bet on LA. I just call it as I see it and Denver is getting the bulk of the calls.
