Lakers win this series easily and I mean very easily..

I really don't know why so many people seem to be calling for the upset here. Like you, vince, I don't see it being close.
Nugget fans, make a case for your team. Why can you knock off the Lakers?

Lakers will win like always. Lets hope Anthony doesnt show up drunk though

This will be fun to watch with Kobe and Melo on the court, but the Lakers are just to good, they'll win in 5.

I saw the Nuggets play in person this year, and they were not all that pretty to watch...I don't see the upset...and a Laker=Celtic Final would be nice.

Denver falls in Game 1 by a final score of 128-114, despite both Iverson and Carmello having 30 point nights. No other starter scored more than 5!

Well, it's just about over for Denver. They're down 0-3 after Saturday's 102-84 loss. Carmelo Anthony and Allen Iverson? According to the AP, they "shot a combined 10-for-38 and finished with 16 and 15 points, respectively." Ouch. Will they even win a game in this series?
