Western Conference Finals: Lakers vs. Nuggets
This where we will talk about the WCF between LA and Den.
We grabbed Game 1 barely. I sensed some fatigue, I still predict a sweep. They lose composure and we just need some rest from our starters - possible resting them in 4th qtr. But this can only happen if we get a big lead.
What did you guys see/didn't see/hope to see in Game 1?

Yeah, the Lakers did look tired in that 1st game. If they can establish a lead and the bench comes in and sustain or even add on to that, then guys like Kobe, Gasol, & Fish can rest up in the 4th. I think they'll come out with renewed energy tomorrow.
What I'd really like to see is Bynum get off to a great game. He really hasn't had one in the POST. I think the team needs to establish him from the TIP. He did play well in GM7 against the Rockets but the performances are too far in between. -

Damn we let another one get away. Bonehead mistakes. I'm not in a good mood right now. Anyways I think we could have used Bynum some more, he would have helped on D. We didn't see him after 1st qtr. We let a nice lead get away from in less than 2 mins.

Cool... we bounce back last night and regained home advantage. The funny thing about the WCF, either team could be up 3-0 at this point. I'm just glad its the Lakers who are up.

Yea man I'm really proud that the Lakers made it through this. I just finished watching Spike Lee's Kobe Doin' Work. Damn it's a good documentary! I have a whole new respect for basketball and for Bryant. He talks about the triangle and there's so much communication that the fans aren't aware of. After I watched the movie you really get shown what the Lakers go through.
Lakers don't run plays, they execute options in "sequences".
Lakers in 5. -

Today is Game 4 in Denver. Expect more use of Bynum in this series. I'm sure we're going to utilize his length and get rebounds. Lakers in 5!

So another Lakers lost in game 4. Refs were calling bullshit calls. Lakers didn't have their D on point, and bench was nowhere to be found. I hope we stay w/ our post game. Phil Jackson was pissed at the press conference!.

For those asking, Lakers, C Adrew Bynum's flagrant foul in Game 3 has been "recinded"
Bynum's foul situation.
Dahntay Jones' trip of Kobe Bryant was upgraded to a Flagrant-1 foul. Jones now has 3 flagrant points, you get suspended for a game once you reach 4 flagrant points.

Heard about this today. I thought it was 7... no wait that's 7 tech fouls. Then you get suspended.
Yeah, that was a dirty play. You can see in the replay that he knowingly stuck out his foot and tripped Kobe.
BTW, I went to lunch at this sports bar last Friday and had the Kobe burger. Good spot too to watch the games. -
