bump this for tonights game...
if kobe scores 40 plus they have won, if he doesnt they have lost. hmmm. is anyone else going to step besides ariza and kobe?
This is a must win for the nuggets, if they go down 3-1 they have about a .5% chance in winning the series. Should be good game, hopefully the refs dont show up on a power trip.
The cavs game last night had like 84ish free throws. Thats waaaay to many, and lebron took 24 of those which is pretty lopsided. refs have been terrible all playoffs, hopefully they get their act together tonight and let the players decide the outcome.

I forgot that lakers play tonight. I'm sick of all the fouls and freethrows in the Orlando game. I wish they would just play without calling everything or the players arguing on every trip that they got fouled when they didn't.

Farmar is a huge let down this season, but I will cut him some slack as he is coming off an injury. I just don?t see him ever becoming the number 1 point guard for the team. We need to pick up a point guard in the offseason. Someone that Kobe can trust to the handle and distribute the ball. Kobe can't do everything.
Sasha just needs a stretch of good play, to build his confidence. He needs to translate his shooting touch from practice to the games. He is called the "machine" because he never misses in practice.
I also miss Turiaf, he was great for team moral. But I don't think he was the best all around player. He lacked skills and LA made the right decision to get rid of him, as much as it sucked to. I can see Josh Powell becoming a very good player down the road, much better than Turiaf.

I think Luke will only get better with age. I see him becoming one of those crafty veterans that you want on a championship team. His basketball IQ is very high.

I also like Powell, hes young and athletic. He can pop that 10-15 ft baseline shot you need out of a power forward coming off the bench! Farmar has his moments and with the whole injury happening i think he deserves another year atleast. After this year i think the point guard position will be between farmar or brown. Fish is good but getting old. Maybe use fish coming off the bench and figure out if you want brown or farmar and ship the other one off! We'll see what happens, im not concern with any of that. I just want to see them win one this year!!!
