Q4:
Score: DEN 106 LAL 96
Ty Lawson is just a thorn in the eye for the Lakers' defense. It was a good effort for the Lakers to try and tact on a win after debacles in the Grammy's road trip, but the lack of talent and the hamper of injuries showed for this Laker squad. Another loss, and yet it is for a common good to tank and get the top pick. Stay tuned for the full recap.
Q3:
Score: DEN 71 LAL 70
And the Nuggets have gotten their act together offensively. At one point, the Lakers' lead was 52-59 and after that fast break dunk by Tarik Black, the Lakers couldn't get anything going offensively and Ty Lawson kicked it into overdrive and did what he has done to us countless times in the past, blowing past our guards and scoring. Luckily, an and 1 by Boozer and jumper by Young are some of the plays that are keeping the Lakers hanging right now, otherwise with the way the Nuggets played this quarter, it would've gotten out of hand.
Q2:
Score: DEN 45 LAL 48
The Nuggets are hanging around, despite some piss poor play from the starters. The Lakers though, they're getting a lot of second chance possessions + points as they are just completely wiping the floor in the rebounding game and that's the reason why they have the leverage right now. We had a JAVALE MCGEE sighting. Talk about the Nuggets playing desperate. Onto the halftime report.
Q1:
Score: DEN 24 LAL 29
In a matchup against two of the bottom dwellers in the West, a good start for the Lakers offensively. They started with 7-0 run, I thought the offense looked very sharp. The Nuggets offense then got going after a timeout by B. Shaw, but I thought the offense has been consistent all quarter long. Wayne Ellington played a big part in that, getting off to a good start with 11 of the Lakers' 29 points. Other than that, just a good start for the Laker offense, getting it going early. It's just what the doctor ordered.
