What happened tonight 24? :D Aaron Afflalo? :smilielol5:

2nd night of a back to back. Lakers flew in from a late LA game and finally hit their hotels at 4:00AM. FYI, exact same thing hapened last year. I don't take the Nuggets lightly though, they will be in the Conference Fianls with the Lakers. Carmelo Anthony is the best player in the NBA who gets no Pub. U gotta like everything Nuggets except the Birdman retard.

The Lakers miss Pau Gasol. Kobe Bryant is their best player, but they didnt become an elite team til they acquired Pau Gasol. He gives them size, he can pass, he allows Odom to play weakside and get garbage points and stickbacks (and come off the bench). Look no further than their record prior to his arrival, and their record since.

How bout Ty Lawson tonight too? MONSTER DUNK on Mbenga.

True, but the lakers have still hobbled to a 7-2 record. :P

Pretty tough for any player to win it all without help, just ask Lebron.

Regular season is just foreplay in the NBA anyways, home court is all that's really at stake for most playoff teams.

Nuggets are winning the title IMO. They are SOOOOOOOOOO deep and the Lakers really don't have a good bench, aside from Brown and sometimes Farmar.

It's November still and the Lakers still haven't gotten Gasol on the court yet......bit premature to proclaim a new king in the West don't you think.......

    • Have you seen the mock drafts lately?   Most of them have us taking a QB. Just because you aren't high on these QBs doesn't mean the Panthers or other teams aren't.   If you want me to be real I just think you a Tmac homer and all you care about is us drafting him. It's why you get so defensive when people mention other prospects.   Be open to other people's ideas. Nobody in this thread is saying anything bad about your boy Tmac. 
    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
    • Sanders is with Tom Brady brand and that's his mentor. The Raiders owner was with Sanders taking pics at a Vegas game together.   It doesn't take much to connect the dots that Vegas will be interested in Sanders as their franchise QB. Oh yeah and guess who hasa small ownership stake in the Raiders Tom Brady.   I guess this is just another made up Madden idea by me huh?
