Solid win for the Lakers there

No Carmelo for most of the game, but the Lakers were also short-handed and took care of business especially well. Denver really looked like they were going to take over in the 80s, then the Lakers just blew them away with their balanced game.

That must of been so awesome for Karl to see his son play, and sitting on that bench down there. Could tell he was very proud, aside from the hug at the end. Got to love that. I'm happy for them.

Charles doesn't respect Denver defensively.

Another fun win for Portland today... wow - and Travis Outlaw with yet another big play. He's emerging as a legit player in the league. I love how he's improved his jumpshot, and can shoot it in multiple ways.

I know, you'd think they'd adjust the schedule when it's possible... D-Wade and Shaq are still "names", but they aren't what they're expected to be, and the team is bad.

Because Kobe doesn't have to score as much anymore as he used to. Even with the Lakers injuries, the Cavs don't have the offensive ability the Lakers do with their depth and system.

Both had quality nights, just in different ways.

Your posting privileges have been revoked - forever. The Cavs STRUGGLED to beat the Miami Heat and were only able to do so because of the infinite clutchness of Damon Jones. That's not even a joke, it's the truth.

The Lakers on the other hand were able to whoop the Nuggets good thanks to the double team's Kobe drew and all the open space it created for his teammates to nail unconstested shots.

just a little intresting fact for you guys out there

Interesting tidbit: Kobe joins Nash, Kidd and Kevin Johnson as the only players with 17+ points, 11+ assists, 5+ rebounds on 7 or less field goal attempts

Wow! You need to chill out dude. He is obviously trying to be funny. (at least to me, and the :P sign) And who care who is better, as long as the Lakers win I am happy!

I'm still lol'ing @ Riley switching Wade on LeBron and LeBron got shut down.

On the offensive end in the 4th Q, Wade straight up RAPED LeBron.

Means nothing in a regular season game of two guys who play different positions, but with the speed/quickness about equal and LeBron having the MAJOR size advantage, I just found the pwnage funny....

But wow, gotta love what Kobe Bryant did tonight. That's how you CARRY a team.

Well, I don't think he was being serious on the posting priveleges part. I think he just meant that in a strong disagreement and pointing things out that happened in comparison of both games, which were not mentioned by LeRydee. So NF summed that up by exaggerating what a flawed post it was with that line, and I thought had a joking intent with the usage of "Your posting privleges have been revoked - forever".
