I would love to see Denver win, but I do not know if the Fuhrer (David Stern) will allow it. I have a huge distrust of the NBA, especially when it was demonstrated how easily the refs can determine the outcome of a game. I think Denver is the better team today.

I distrust the NBA too. One no-call practically eliminated Dallas from the playoffs.

Stern must be salivating at a Kobe v Lebron finals and i expect the refs to be discussed a lot in this series and questioned

This may end up being one of the best series of the year. The Nuggets are HOT, but the Lakers are LOADED with talent.

Lakers in 7.

PS. How do you trade BILLUPS FOR IVERSON?????
