Who do you think will win the series? I got Nuggets in 6 and I sure as hell will be cheering for the Nuggets. I'd rather see Melo win a ring before those two clowns by the name of LeBron James and Kobe Bryant.
Go Denver. I have no problem rooting for a bunch of thug idiots that play hard and actually care as opposed to this pompous borderline disgraceful Lakers group. Plus, there's nobody I hate more in basketball than Kobe. It's not possible to watch our series against him and not downgrade him somewhat. Hopefully, the Nuggets will build on what we've done and expose him even further.
People keep saying the league wants la/cle, but the carmelo/lebron matchup is a decent storyline being drafted one two in the same class
I can honestly say that my view on Kobe has drastically changed during this series. Real classless jerk, great player but classless jerk nonetheless. That being said I've got the Nuggets in 7. Lebron-Melo Finals I would really like to watch, the 2 top players of their draft going head to head for the Larry O'Brien trophy will be great to watch. Plus I like how Billups has added a a killer instinct to this Nuggets team that they've lacked for a while and also championship experience from one of the best clutch shooters in the game.
This last series should give Denver confidence, if an undermanned team, like the Rockets can give the Lakers (hell) without Yao Ming and a backup center to speak of, they stand of good chance of winning the next series. Unlike Houston, Denver has explosive players all over the court and bigger line (backup centers) than Rockets. Also, they have very experienced Billups and very physical team (which will definitely bother the Lakers). And, I can't stand the Lakers didn't before this series, five years ago, ten years ago, and definitely not now. I hope Nuggets do the most honorable, possible. Sweep the Lakers or beat them in five games by double digits, like they did with the Mavs and Hornets.
Not without Yao Ming, Dikembe Mutombo, and Tracy McGrady. The Nuggets would've beaten us in 5 or 6 games.
People said the lakers would beat us 4-0! In fact, without Deke, Tmac, and losing Yao in game 3, the lakers still needed 7 games to beat us.
I wish the Lakers take out the Nuggets in 4 or 5. That will show the "expert" media that it wasn't the Lakers taking nights off, but the Rockets punching the Lakers and choking them on defense.
