Denver is a great tune-up for Cleveland through Carmelo.

Depends on what Stern wants..I think it is obvious to everyone he wants this to go to a Game 7, so I think we will win tomorrow and lose on Monday, which I am fine with. I just want us to win game 3

i would like to be positive, but i haven't seen one positive sign in the last 2 games.

will phil bench fisher or play him only 10-15min? never ever
adjustments? never ever
maybe new defensive schemes? never ever
let bynum play when he isn't in foultrouble? you know the answer

we can only hope that kobe will have a game for ages, otherwise we have no buisness winning the next two. i didn't jump off the bandwagon, i have just accepted that this denver team plays better then we. kudos to them.

i hope lakers win im getting sick of the effin officiating dictating the outcome of the games not just lakers games all of the games its ridiculous its turning into payoffs instead of playoffs

Melo is matching Kobe point by point, so every1 else has to score more points than the other Nuggets. in conclusion...feed the ball inside and score more points, damn it!

oh yeah, and don't play Fisher or Sasha much

if phil yanks drew early, we lose, its as simple as that

Phil never lost a series after winning game 1.

He's 42-0.

I'm resting on that.

its all mind games with phil jackson...hes getting us prepared for being down in the finals..vs the cavs we're going down 0-2..since they're at home then we take the next three..n win game 6 for the championship..all a ploy

I COULDN'T SLEEP. I WANT THIS WIN TODAY SO BADLY.

This game is critical. Somewhat close to a must-win even.

Sure, on paper we can do with a split in Denver, but going down 2-1 puts a ton of pressure on us for Game 4. Given how fragile the collective psyche of this team has been in this post-season, its not a position I would want to be in.

Nuggets will come out energized. Have to keep it close early and go from there. We managed to win in Utah, and they had a similar home record as Denver, so that is one aspect to take encouragement from.
