Nuggets on the Lakers: "We kind of know how to beat them" 

Post#1 » by bl2k » Fri Feb 5, 2010 11:37 pm

“We kind of know how to beat them, what we have to do,” Karl said. “We’re learning that better, and I think that’s a positive.”

“Why should we be? [The championship] was last year,” Anthony said. “They are the same to me. They are the Lakers, I guess.”

“I don’t know if they’re better,” Billups said. “But they won it all. They don’t have to be better. Nobody was as good as them.

“That’s yet to be seen. I really, really thought Trevor Ariza(notes) was good for that team. I think they miss him.”

Not saying they should be scared but the Nuggets love to talk down the Lakers, you would think gettin beat two years in a row would quiet you a little bit. We shall see come playoff time.

What does we "Kind of" know how... mean haha.

And if you're going to write commentary like this you should probably put it on the LAL board and not as a thread on the GB. Just a suggestion.

LMAO at Billups saying they miss Trevor, look Trev fitted what we did but they needed an element of physicality and somebody they knew could check LBJ or Pierce. I don't think the Lakers miss Trev, people need to stop over valuing what he meant to the Lakers.

LMAO@The Nuggets.

The funny thing is if they had the basketball IQ of a high school team they might have actually beaten the Lakers last year.

I still think LA is better, especially on the front line. We'll see what's up tonight, hopefully Melo can play.

Lakers not worried but the rest of the league should be. they come close to beating the lakers which means they can beat most of the league in a 7 game series. maybe not the cavs, magic and celtics(healthy).

They're still too small in the front court and have George Karl as head coach.

i dont blame them

the nuggets came closest to beating the lakers in the playoffs, and do match up the best with the lakers...

its a shame they cant get any bigger in the frontcourt, because the nuggets still havent faced a fit healthy bynum in the playoffs yet

is it ever smart to make comments like this. It really doesn't help you with motivation and it definitely helps the other team.

Heck, anyone can figure out how to beat a team, it's implementing it that's the problem.
