    Lakers are really soft defensively inside. Doubt they can win this one. Denver gets whatever they want whenever they want.

    Lakers truly are a fraud. Bad defense, jump shooting offense. Denver controlling everything.

    Lol Denver fan just ran after Ty Lawson.

    Denver pulling lakers pink panties down and just ramming them.

    Lakers really are an embarrassment. Can't get the ball into bynum so they throw up bricks or turn it over and allow a breakaway dunk.

    I guess the NBA has never heard of not showing crazy fans. MLb makes it a point to not show replays of crazy fans and TNT showing it and making her famous lol.

    The Lakers lack of depth will hurt them today and possibly the series. The aging Kobe is playing too many minutes and his shooting percentage continues to suffer.

    I think we were looking for a spot that we knew the book would need Denver(assuming no special line), so since we liked LA anyway this is a way to make sure we won't lose if LA wins. If that explanation is confusing I apologize. Basically when we know the players are going to gang up on team A we will make a special line on team B, especially if we also like team A. Of course it always looks a little smarter when the lean is winning unlike this game.

    Watching the Lakers reminds me of watching the Illini. They have Bynum and keep taking jumpers. Just like Illinois and Leonard this year.

    Mike brown is so dumb.

    Denver gets a lot of easy baskets. Lakers are good in half court but cant defend in transition.

    Lakers make more stupid plays than any other team. Kobe has gotten worse as a player sadly. And I dont mean physically, his decision making.

    You think so? If lakers could make a 3 they could win. Missing every open one.

    if lakers lose it won't be that bad for them, guarantees artest won't miss game 1 of round 2

    Makes perfect sense , thanks for the explanation.

    I always assumed it was only because you really like a play.

    But in fact it minimizes your losses.

    Kobe makes so many dumb decisions it is unreal.

    Kobe does so much more harm than good.
