b2b @ Denver is usually a guaranteed loss. Plus they got in pretty late too. |

This is gonna be a tough one. 2nd game of a back to back. The team didn't arrive to the hotel until 2:30am PT last night. _________________ Nobody in the NBA can touch the Laker brand, which, like the uniform color, is pure gold. |

That will be haarrd.
No McGee is still good, but Denver in Denver for the second game of a back to back isn't good for the Lakers.
I wouldn't be too pessimistic, but I see a loss. |

I'm guessing Vegas has the Nuggets as a 12 point favorite.... which is understandable... but I see this being a win simply because the game last night should carry into the game against the Nuggets. |

I really hope we win. And we can. Now, with Hill and without two PG's on the starting line up, we definitely have a chance.
I predict another monster game for Hill. Hickson and Faried will challanged him. I like that. |

Geez, another game already, seems like this team never gets more than one day off between games. Nugz are rebuilding as well and not the same kind of impact kind of style they usually had under Karl but since they're rested and at home....

If we can't beat a Brian Shaw coached, McGee injured team, then... I'll be sad. |

with all these rumors going around about a Shumpert-Faried swap... the Nuggets might get distracted in this game.
I see this being a 13 point win, the Nuggets look like a lottery team and have only looked good against a bad Jazz team.... It would be a failure if we don't win this one.

I definitely will be betting on the Lakers .......that's a favorable spread. I don't care if it's a back to back, or in the mile high city. The team looked great last night, Gasol received plenty of rest and the Nuggets are without McGee. |

Jordan Hill vs. Ken Faried should be a fun matchup to watch. If Blake can contain Lawson, we should be able to take this with McGee being out. _________________ "I don’t give a [expletive] what you say.

They don't have JaVa to bother Pau so much. Farriad vs Hill. Hickins though could give Pau some problems.. they are long and lean. We don't have to see Nash chasing Lawson. Blake can handle him. We got this _________________ New Beginings |

Seriously, every fricken season we play on the road against the Nuggets on a B2B...I don't know what to expect, probably a close game up until the end. _________________
