Series: Nuggets 1 - Lakers 1
Tipoff: 6:30 p.m. Mountain (ABC)
After watching LeBron James sink the game winner for Cleveland last night with just 1 second left in the game, we can look back and say that the last four conference finals games have been just ridiculously awesome.
Game 1 WCF ... decided by 2 points.
Game 1 ECF ... decided by 1 point.
Game 2 WCF ... decided by 3 points.
Game 2 ECF ... decided by 1 point.
I'll be in attendance tonight at the Pepsi Center and I can't wait to have my hearing damaged beyond repair as I await the home crowd. This will be the first Western Conference Finals game played in Denver since 1985 ... get ready.

Show 'em the power of the home crowd!
I’ll be cheering, but I doubt I’ll be loud enough for the Nuggs to hear me. Probably just my neighbors and the cops (after they’re called.)
The Nuggets should be going 3-0
And they will win tonight! Up the Nuggets!

go denver!
I’m sad I have to wait 4.5 hours for this game to start, I’m ready now haha
What do you guys think about J.R.? Is he gonna heat up tonight? I’m hoping so!
Rhiannon ... I'm hoping so too.
J.R. is one of my favorite Nuggets to watch … if not my favorite. Would love to see him get loose and go to work.

Melo needs to hit
the game winner with .5 seconds left to keep up with LeBron
So I told her," I'll be nicer if you try to be smarter!'..That was a mistake.
I'll take the win any way it'll come ... couldn't care less about keeping up with LeBron...
But man … what a shot eh Juannieboy???? I bet you completely lost it when it when in right? I know I did. I knew he had the strength to hit a fadeaway type three ball and … well … just wow!

No we were really quite subdued.......
My son and I jumped up and hugged each other! I picked him up, threw him on my shoulder, spun him around a half dozen times and we ended up on the street yelling at the top of our lungs. A couple of neighbors joined us!
Com’on Nate you would do the same if Melo hit anything like that. BOL to you guys tonite.
So I told her," I'll be nicer if you try to be smarter!'..That was a mistake.
You bet I would! I was pretty ecstatic the other night when we just won the game!
Thanks for the BOL my man.

Our fans kill LA's fans...
Honestly, I couldnt tell during the games in LA if the fans were watching basketball or golf.
Then again...
our fans were louder than the Mavs fans too… It was great hearing “Let’s Go Nuggets” before the tipoffs in games 1 and 2 against Dallas.
Make no mistake...
Winning there is a feat. They built Staples for the lakers… Those other teams just play there. The nuggs did something awesome the other night.

But I think it was a good no call…

We need a 2nd half game thread.
Someone call up Nate and tell him that he needs to stop watching the game.
This year is possibly his worst coaching job ever
They play like Portland a lot (give up big runs and go on big runs), which is okay for a young team like my Blazers but not a veteran one…
Proud member of Duck nation!
Yeah but not in 2 minutes
In our second game against them at home this year, the LAkers were up 10 with 2 minutes left in the second, we scored 8 points on the next three possessions, down 2, bang, back in the game…

Especially when there was so much the Nuggets could have done better.
It's the same officiating that we've seen all series.
They call a ton of fouls on one team in the first half, then call bullshit calls to try to even it out in the second.
But there's no point dissecting it now.
We all roll our eyes when fans of other teams resort to crying about the officiating when their teams lose. I don’t want us to be those fans.

They were up by 5 so many times, then up by more after the 3rd. It just wasn’t happening.
Yeah they did.
A TON of open looks were missed, but good god does this team need an inbounds play. You could make the argument we’ve lost two games because of that.
It doesn’t change the part of where Carmelo drives to the hoop and gets hammered with no repercussions but Kobe gets looked at wrong and ends up with something crazy like 17 free throws.

I wondered about that
because I see college teams do it ALL THE TIME. They toss the ball into the back court and start the play from their own free throw line or so. I didn’t know if that was legal in the situation tonight or not.

What happened in the 4th quarter...
We were up 79-71 going into the 4th. After that noone could hit a shot and we basically ran no offense just took jump shots.
Yes but...
even Carmelo was cold in the whole second half. If we had played the 4th anything like we played the rest of the game we would have won pretty easily. Pretty disappointing.
Essentially
we were up 79-72 after the third because of the insane tech called on Smith after his monster shot. How many commercials did the game come back from to find Kobe shooting free throws? It seemed to happen all the time.

The fix was in. Even if we had played a good 4th quarter, it wouldn’t have come easy.
The 2009 Colorado Rockies: Expect the Unexpected
I don't think so
Bad officiating yes but not fixed. The more aggressive team gets more calls and the Lakers WERE the more aggressive team in the second half…
Proud member of Duck nation!
5-27 from 3. Or 18%
Bad shot selection. Even if you don’t get calls going to the rack, you still have to.
Thing is
They were. I have rarely seen that many bailout calls for both teams….
Proud member of Duck nation!
We were shooting WAY too much outside...
particularly all the 3’s…points in the paint nuggets. The techs need to go down, chauncey needs to play better. JR is still hurt. Bird should have played more.

And almost won, that’s pretty amazing for Denver….
Proud member of Duck nation!
In a bad mood
JR was hideous tonight, Chauncey was subpar, Melo was subpar. We had so many open looks that we failed to capitalize on it is sickening. I refuse to blame refs; never have never will. It was really just a bad game by our Nuggets. We may have let this series get away. Tip of the cap to Kobe. He showed how a superstar is supposed to play in big games. He was absolutely superb tonight. This is a first class basketball player we are witnessing like him or not. Don’t bet against him when LeBron gets tons of media hype the night before. Man I am disappointed. Everything was there for the taking and we failed. Such a bad feeling. Hopefully we get em back Monday but I have a bad feeling right now.
The last two shots he hit
THe leaner and the 3 were both perfectly defended….
Proud member of Duck nation!
They were
And he showed why he is the best player alive by hitting them regardless. I can’t say I am the biggest Kobe supporter — though I don’t hate him as much as it seems most do — but damn I respect the guy.

Yes, Lakers won...
But to this Laker fan, they have not proved they are better than the Nuggets. First of all, Denver simply cannot shoot this poorly again. They were getting good looks pretty much all night, just could not knock them down.
The Lakers still have a lot of trouble scoring on Denver’s defense, and I think they simply hit tough shots down the stretch. If the ball bounced the other way on some of those shots by both teams, this could have easily been a 10 pt win for the Nuggets.
I expect the Nuggets to play much, much better the next game.

Talentwise there is no difference
Between the two, just about who executes…
Proud member of Duck nation!
Lakers won b/c they played harder, it's that simple.
While your team is out jacking up jump shots and three-pointers and shying away from the paint, our team is playing their behinds off. Kobe’s so athletic I’ve never seen him this tired before – you know he was playing his ass off.
Meanwhile
Can we maybe practice an inbounds play sometime in the near future? Please. That was ridiculous.
That's laughable
I gave Kobe and the Lakers plenty and plenty of props above but to say the Nuggets weren’t playing just as hard as the Lakers is a joke and you know it. Both teams played extremely hard. Effort was not the difference in this game. No way no how.
Well there's two ways you beat a team:
1. You play harder or…
2. You are just more talented.
Which one is it?
It's the third one
3. Your shots fall and theirs don’t.
The 2009 Colorado Rockies: Expect the Unexpected
So essentially your saying
The Lakers were luckier today, cuz their shots fell, and the nuggets’ didn’t.
It's not necessarily about luck
But it’s true of any basketball team. Sometimes your shots just don’t fall. Doesn’t have much to do with effort or talent.
No one is saying the Lakers don’t deserve the win, or that Kobe isn’t supremely talented.
Come on the Lakers shot a measly 68.9% from the Free throw line
I mean you can complain about how the Nuggets’ shots weren’t falling but the Lakers’ free throws weren’t at all
I know but in terms of not convertin open looks the Lakers were probably worse than you guys
I mean a free throw is about as open as it gets
Again, you have to take FTs out of it.
Yes, the Lakers shot terribly from the line. But down the stretch, their FG attempts went in, the Nuggets’ didn’t. That’s not anything against the Lakers. It’s to their credit. We’re just stating facts.
The Nuggets were 5-22 in the 4th
And 5-27 from 3 tonight. The shots just didn’t fall. And since when is being lucky a bad thing? You need a considerable amount of luck to win a championship, no matter who you are.
The 2009 Colorado Rockies: Expect the Unexpected
Unless you're UNC basektball this year
And flatten the NCAA tournament like you’re an 18-wheeler but pretty much yeah…
Proud member of Duck nation!
I suppose you'll say something to the degree of
Lakers got lucky or Lakers got better calls in the second half
Nope
I never blame refs. Execution and shots falling was the difference. That’s it. Kobe was terrific, Melo didn’t match. Lakers won, we didn’t. We got beat. Plain and simple. Effort was the same. Lakers absolutely did not play any harder. I cannot fault the Nuggets effort wise. Good win, you earned it. That is all.

Maybe it's Nate??? Apparently he's there....
Apparently he sounds like a girl too………………..probably wasn’t him.

OK, I'll quit
I don’t want to stir the pot anymore with the R word or said allegations (and honestly, I was staying away from the R word, but certainly did beat around the bush). Imo, Kobe isn’t a very good person. There are other sports stars who seem to be more worthy of admiring away from the court/field/ice. But I don’t mean to upset folks so much when I bring the allegations up, so I’ll drop it. Period.
So, what other topics are completely tabboo? OJ? Melo’s issues off of the court? Gasol’s facial expressions? Steroids?

Nice non-apology apology.....LOL.
Nothing is taboo. We’re just saying it reflects poorly on you. Not that you can’t say it.
"Don't I know you from somewhere"?. "Nah, that ain't me, I'm from Buffalo" - Axel Foley
actually I shouldn't put words in DJ's mouth.
That is what I am saying, I don’t know what his point is.
"Don't I know you from somewhere"?. "Nah, that ain't me, I'm from Buffalo" - Axel Foley
No, that’s what I was saying.
Quite the not-so-much-an-apology apology there, Bob.

No, the Kobe allegations are really taboo
Otherwise folks wouldn’t get so bent out of shape and Nate wouldn’t start deleting posts. They are certainly taboo on ESPN. Think they’ll bring them up during this series? No way in hell.

Sometimes the do..........
they just call it “legal troubles”
"Don't I know you from somewhere"?. "Nah, that ain't me, I'm from Buffalo" - Axel Foley
OK, I'll try this again, better this time
I do apologize for stirring the pot again and for offending some posters, both Laker fans and some Nug fans.

Again, someone is totally missing the point. It’s not the subject that we and Nate find taboo, it’s you using it as a joking point of reference that is tasteless and a show of a lack of class that we find taboo.

I’m not in any way making light of rape. Honestly. Just cracking on Kobe’s character.

Bob, ironically since we were just talking about Kobe and rape, I’m watching the channel 4 news and as they were talking up the story of the Bryant’s counter-suing their ex maid, the video they were using during the voice over was Kobe sitting at the podium staring in to his wife’s eyes as he aplogizes for cheating on her.
You stay classy, Channel 4 news.

In LA?

Yup.
In case you don’t know LA news is essentially TMZ with local weather.
by DJ Bento Box on May 24, 2009 12:13 AM MDT up reply actions
Weird
to be honest, I haven’t caught any of the local stations here in Denver mentioning his past legal issues here during this series. Just fricken me.

No, here pretty much anything that passes as “news reporting” is essentially a glorified TMZ piece. Did you know that the reporter who was antagonizing Phil Jackson at the presser after the loss against Houston (the infamous “curse word” conference) was an LA Times sports beat writer? A writer who makes his living essentially attacking and goading all Los Angeles team athletes and coaches? Or our AM sportstalk hosts constantly cutting up their own? You should have heard it after that Game 2 loss. You’d have thought the guys on the radio were three guys from the greater Denver metro area in their basement gloating about the victory.
So forgive us if Laker fans are a bit " defensive". The hate starts at home.

On another note..........
Having nachos for late dinner………………mmmmmmmmmmmm Nachos.
"Don't I know you from somewhere"?. "Nah, that ain't me, I'm from Buffalo" - Axel Foley
Nachos ARE good. Especially late night Nachos.
For our game night dinner my wife and I had Egg and Soy Chorizo burritos with a Shrimp and Surimi Louie Salad with a spicy cocktail dressing. Quite yummy.

You in So Cal??
Palm Springs area myself………..hence the PS in the name.

I’m in Silver Lake. Not sure if you know where that is. About 15 mins from Staples and 10 from Dodger Stadium.

You guys have Chipotle???
Damn I love that place…..puttin’ on weight just thinking about it.
"Don't I know you from somewhere"?. "Nah, that ain't me, I'm from Buffalo" - Axel Foley
Yeah, they’ve got ‘em down here. I’m not a particular fan, but I know they’re pretty popular. i think my dad really likes them. Fatburger too.

For the Laker fans here
As a Laker fan as well, I think it’s one thing to talk basketball on the opposing team’s blog, but we really have no business filling up their comment box with Nacho conversation. It’s not like we would have that kind of conversation if we had lost (i.e. game 2), so let’s take it to SSR.
Dude it's 1:00 AM Denver time......
Go whine somewhere else. Besides we’re the only ones here and more comments is good for a blog.
"Don't I know you from somewhere"?. "Nah, that ain't me, I'm from Buffalo" - Axel Foley
Um………….. why don’t you go ahead and head on over to SSAR. We’ll meet you there.
What a maroon. Like he’s the conscience of Laker fans.
by DJ Bento Box on May 24, 2009 1:05 AM MDT up reply actions
I guess. LOL. Whatever, time to sleep soon anyway.

Forget anything about Kobe's legal troubles
We lost this game fair and square. We failed to capitalize. We lost our home court advantage. Lakers beat the Nuggets tonight. 2-1 we are down. That is the only thing that matters. Kobe was sensational tonight plain and simple. We absolutely must bounce back or we are done. Talk basketball, not Kobe and his past. That is not even close to relevant at this point. Get pumped for game 5 on Monday night. Biggest game of the season and of our Nuggets fandom for sure. Focus on that. We need it.
I wasn’t whining. I just was merely pointing out that this is a Denver blog. Would you be ok with Denver fans all coming onto our blog after game 2 and messing around while the actual members of the blog are frustrated? It just seems to be a little bit of “rubbing it in their face.” I wasn’t attacking any of you personally, there was no malicious intent at all in my post, so I don’t know what’s with the personal attacks. I just want us to be respectful and show some class especially since both teams are playing their heart out and this is a great series. Apologize if you got offended.
You again? Why do you keep coming back here to comment on the Nuggets blog site and gloat? You should go over to SSAR if you want to do that sort of thing.
You wouldn’t want them to go over and do that sort of thing on SSAR when they win, would you?
Jeez. What a loser.
