    Aw yeah, grab you’re popcorn and a seat on the couch. Call me crazy, I believe the Denver Nuggets can win the NBA championship. HA HA HA HA. I’m picking them to win the whole thing right now. Who’s with me?

    Birdman, K-Mart, Melo, Klezia, Billups, JONES, Carter, Nene and shoot it from half court Smith. I haven’t seen a team this hot in the playoffs since………………….. The Nuggets of 1995. Ha ha ha.

    im a big laker fan and i still think they can win the title..that said i wouldnt be suprised if denver beat them because they tend to get soft on defense at times..when they are at there best then no other team has a chance but there best is so far and few between that i cant say…one thing i do have to say is the lakers do have the ougher road because utah wasnt a real 8th seed and houston is talented enough to get to the finals ( cant say the same thing for dallas,N.O atlanta or detroit)

    I think there is a small chance the Nuggets can win the title, but I think the road through the west would be difficult for them. If they were to beat the Lakers, I think they would need 7 games and it would be a draining season both physically and mentally. If the Nuggets faces the Cavs I don’t think they can get the job done. Anything can happen, but I don’t see Denver winning it all.

    Denver would be the CAVS in the finals, trust me. Lebron may want to see Denver. But the rest of his team doesn’t.

    i think they match up very well with the cavs and boston has shown that playing a 7 game series doesnt really matter as much as some people think..but back to denver they match up very very well with the cavs other than lebron but lebron would have his work cut out from him like he hasnt had in the east tryna check carmelo..then mo would have a tough time with chauncy especially with his power..illguskus, varajo joe smith, nene, kenyon, birdman…delonte west , jrsmith boobie, d jones….i wouldnt mind seeing that series but i still think the lakers will get there and win it

    They definitely have a shot at winning a title, but I still the Cavs will win it. LeBron is playing at such a high level right now, I just don’t see him being stopped anytime soon.

    Maybe thats what he meant, but I dont think I should have read the sentence 4 times. If he is such a great mind shouldn’t he spell things right?

    Remember back in 03-04, everyone was talking about this being the next Magic/Bird rivalry? Everyone had given up on that with the emergence of D-Wade as the second best player out of that class, but it seems possible that this rivalry could come into fruition, especially with the Lake Show struggling against a Yao-less Rockets team.

    With all that said, eprizzle14 got it right. LeBron is on a mission. It’s the Cavs title to lose. This is coming from a big Melo fan. Hopefully though, this will be the matchup in the finals a couple of times.

    Rockets without Yao today. That doesn’t seem like the toughest road to travel.
    Did Kobe even show up at the arena today? It’s games like this that make me embarrassed to think that so many people think he is the best player in the NBA.

    I think it would’ve been nice if Fisher, Odom, and Ariza would’ve shown up. I’m sorry you feel embarrassed.

    nuggets can win it all. they have a very deep and talented bench. they’ve got 3 all-stars in the starting line up, a very efficient center in nene and a good perimeter defender in dahntay. the nuggets have the blueprint of a championship team. they have a prolific scorer in melo, a floor general in chauncey and an athletic big in kmart.

    also, the nuggets have been cruising in the playoffs as of late, 4-1 and currently 3-0. the lakers have to be ready when the nuggets come to town.

    I think the Nuggets have the players to make a run for the championship. But, when things don’t go their way, will Billups be able to keep the players heads in te game. Kenyon, J.R., and Melo all can take themselves out of the gameif things are not going well. I am also not sold on George Karl as a coach. Somtimes I wonder if Billups is the coach.

    Houston Rockets will do it.

    Cannot handle the group of Artest, Scola, Brooks and Battier. Just too great defense…

    yea i wouldn’t count out the rockets yet. don’t get me wrong the lakers are still the obvious favorites to win the series but the rockets are tough and they will deliver some good shots the rest of the series.kobe will deliver and probably win the series himself but if the rockets continue to beat up the role players like odom, the nuggets have a very realistic chance for the finals. but the cavs have to be the favorites to win it all right now. yea they have the easiest road but they are blowing the teams out every game and haven’t lost a playoff game yet. I don’t care how easy their path is, they are impressive.

    ACTUALLY i dont have denver beating l.a..for one fisher should do a better job on d if not then kobe can check chauncy and put derrick on jones since hes not a threat..both teams are playing with 2 players they didnt have last year..den billups and birdman lakers bynum and arezia…actually brown too..lakers will hurt a lil from nene but if and thats a big if bynum plays half as good as yesterday then lakers should win series 4-2..even if he doesnt i still think they can because kobe will go from having 2 of the best defenders in the leauge checking him to jones and no defense playing jr smith
