A devastating ending for a brilliant season for the Denver organization.

Their defense really let them down. And they couldn't get going offensively early either.

Hopefully, Kobe and the rest of the Lakers can get another ring that will join Gorgeous, Beautiful and Sexy.

If it isn't with those... If they just... ahh damn it... Lamar Odom is playing well the past few games. If he'll carry on with the same composure and confidence it will be great for the Lakers. Let see.. let see..

It was Luke Walton, I thought, who played a major role on this win. He's the X-factor as what they call it.

Kobe finally has a legit chance again at the championship. If he wins it all him as the best player on the Lakers, I think there is going to be a debate once again on MJ vs Kobe. -_-

I'm referring to the second installment of the Kobe-LeBron puppet advertisement wherein Kobe named his 3 championship rings, Gorgeous, Beautiful and Sexy.

So much for my Orlando-Denver finals fanboyism. And to think of all this time I am starting to like the Lakers.
Well good luck to them, but I still won't root for them to win the championship

Lakers go 24 for 24 at the charity stripe, though neither Bynum nor Ariza attempted any
Kobe only had one turnover and 10 assists, took 20 shots
Lakers had twice as many assists as the Nuggets

i was impressed.

And that assists are real assists, not just an "I want to have a triple double" assists.

Finally !
This series is over . . .
There's no chance the Nuggets will get into the Finals with that line-up .

C'mon, they really have a chance to go to the Finals with that line-up. They just fell short in Game 6.

Oh yeah, congratulations to the L.A. Lakers. But still,I'll go for Orlando if they end it tomorrow. :mrgreen:

You're rooting for them and now you're saying that they have no chance with that line-up? You are always contradicting all the things that you are saying. Not just in that statement but in each and every post you have here in this thread.

Anyway, that Denver team can match-up well with the Cavaliers or Magic it just so happened that they came out flat this game and of course, LA played extremely well.

Yeah, if the Lakers lose in the finals however, lookout for Shaq's "Tell me how my ass taste" rap again this year. :mrgreen:

One thing I'm really, really puzzled about: why did the Nuggets suddenly decided after Game 4 to run double-teams at the Lakers? They didn't need to do that at that stage, the series was still even and after that LA shredded them with their ball movement, which is obviously a strength of theirs.

And then George Karl laughed at the start of the fourth quarter to the suggestion that LA were killing them all over the floor. What an arrogant dick, I'm still pissed at his completely biased perceptions of the events during the Nuggets-Mavs series.

Congrats to the Lakers, and I suppose a great season for the Nuggets too, but they really had an opportunity to win this series and that strategy change that their coaching staff implemented just reeked of suck.
