There's a grown man comment from Dwight. Good to see it.

This is likely to be a very tough game. I hope LeBron and AD come out of this healthy, and I hope several other Lakers bring their A games the way I know LBJ and AD will.

True - I completely forgot about that possibility. I take it as a certainty the Lakers will be mediocre or worse from outside. Denver's strategy relies on clogging the middle and the Lakers missing jump shots. A good shooting night for the Lakers would finish this series.

Anytime we can be average+ (above 33%) from beyond the arc, we have a great chance at winning.

Laker Basketball

1. Play excellent defense.

2. Outrebound the opponent.

3. Push the pace.

We do these and we have a chance to win every game.

DG, KK, or MM have a good shooting night and we're very tough to beat. Been feeling that tonight is the night for DG.

This game will be won by the team that wants it more. You know Denver will pull out all stops. Bron will inspire the Lakers to go all out. My concern is stamina. Bron will have to pace himself. AD will have to put the pedal to the medal for 48. Howard is the X factor. If KCP, Green, and Kuz have hot hands we'll be OK.

Start fast and keep the doobie lit.

Oh yeah; Danny Green, listen to Shaq, HOLD IT!!!


GO PURPLE & GOLD!!!

Yeah, i want us to win above all else. But I really would like us to blow them out as well. Leave no doubt who is superior, that they were just lucky to have hung around

      It's soft info that the team provides to media; playing mind-games; for up-to-date info always see TDRock's injury thread. Thanks TD

If the Lakers just shoot average on 3s and Denver doesn’t make some of the ridiculous shots (Murray in particular) they have been making then it could be a blowout.

Interesting - G1 the spread was -6.5 Lakers. Game 2 -7.5.

Tonight we are -5.5 favorites to win. I wonder if bettors are thinking we don't come out with as much urgency, similar to G3.

Having a bad feeling for tonight. Denver ist gonna come out in desperation mode, similiar to game 3 and i don't think we are going to match the intensity.

To me it’s all about health at this point. If LeBron and/or AD are not themselves because of their ankles or other issues we’re in trouble. If they can still bring it, then we’re going to end it today.

Yeah. I was caught up on ESPN & CBSSports injury reports for a long time. I finally found TDRocks's thread. That's where I go.
