They have no guards. Either to old or not good. Denvers front court laughs at them. Denver needs dwight, would make the most dominate team since the Bulls.

Dwight is Biggie with some hops. He cant shoot and is akward.

Best Center in the league is......

I dont even know but it IS NOT DWIGHT

Denver does not need a scoring center, they have plenty of scoring threats with Melo, Chauncy, Jr.... Denver needs a big man that can dominate the glass, and get easy put back points. Pau is a 7 footer. Bynum is 7ft. Those are tough matchups based on size.

You want someone tall?

Ron Allen

No but ill take a guy who is roughly averaging 20 and 15... Like it or not Dwight is the best center in the game, for the simple fact that there is no one else out there. But besides the point, cause Dwight being in Denver aint happening.

Watch it, study it. The future.

LivingLegend and I are both on board with Denver.

They have the most talent of anybody. They are a really good center away from being dominate...

Kenyon checks Lebron and Shaq in yesterday's game. Thats awesome.

Kenyon can check Lebron.

I hate to say this, but i am agreeing with them. I told livinglegend yesterday that Denver would beat Cleveland last night and that Denver is a favorite to win it all. You saw last night what happened to the Lakers when a team played physical with them, they struggled to score points. Denver is a physical team and can score over a 100 points every night. There only question has been if they will play defense. In a 7 game series i would take Denver over any other team in the league.

On a side note, I hate Lebron. How can you force your way to the basket, lower your shoulder, and draw the foul on the defense, thats some cr*p. Its a da*n offensive fould but since he is the "chosen one" he gets all the calls. I hate that.

 

[Kingsley Court]

Everyone seems to be overreacting to the game last night. Do you people realize Cleveland didn't have Z or Jamison? Denver is most certainly NOT the team to beat.

You have to be kidding me. Most talent then anybody? Chauncy/Melo are solid. JR can be solid and other then that...no one. Kenyon can not check lebron-no one can.

IMO with the MAVS addition that would be a very good series (Mavs Nuggets). A toss up. Lakers are still better then both of them-too much size+Kobe. Also, Lakers bench is very good- the team is proving they can win without the best player in the league.

Yes there should be some offensive fouls but that is hardly what he does. Lebron is challenging Kobe for best player in the league right now. Who does he have to play with?!?! A very very old shaq....now that he has jamison the team just got much much better.

 

[TheLivingLegend]

Im not agreeing or disagreeing with your statement. But what team has more talent?

 

[Kingsley Court]

All one has to do is look at their respective rosters to realize that Lakers have more talent.

I would def. say the lakers have more talent. I think the Mavs are as talented. I wouldnt say the Jazz are as talanted but they will be a tough out for anyone. The west will be tough this year but I still see the Lakers coming out of it.

On the east--I think if the Celtics get there act together they have as much talent..but I dont expect that to happen. Orlando is trickey and if they kept turkoglu(dunno how to spell it) they would still be a very tough team to beat. But, I still think the CAVS, might not be more talented, but with Lebron are the 2nd best team in the league

Guards - Afflalo, Chauncey, Lawson, Jr
Forwards - Melo, Kenyon, Birdman
C - Nene

Guards - fish, farmar, Vujacic
Forwards - Artest, Shannon, Kobe
C - Bynun, Pau


Denver OWNS LA's guards. Forwards are a toss up. Centers ill give to LA.

Afflalo has had success checking Kobe I might add.

 

[DontMissHim]

Affalo and farmar are even. the Forwards are much better for Lakers...are you kidding me? Artest>Kenyon. Kobe>(or even i guess)melo. Shannon>>>>>>anderson.

Lakers bigs and forwards are better, gaurds gives an edge to Nuggets.

 

[swg]

Kobe is a guard. Gasol is often used as a forward when Bynum is in. Odom isn't even on the list at forward.
Based on the above, I don't see how they are better at the G, F, or C positions??

Artest>Kenyon.. Not even close. Ron averages 11 points and 4 rebounds. Kenyon Averages 12 points and 10 boards a game and as of late kenyon is around 16 a game.

Shannon> Birdman... Again, nope. Birdman gets nearly 7 and 7 with 3 blocks. Shannon Brown is at 8 and 2.

Affalo = Farmar even... I think not. Affalo gets 9 and 3. Farmar gets 7 and 2. Not to mention Affalo can guard Kobe somewhat effectively.

Kobe> Melo.. Again, wrong. Kobe 28 and 5. Melo 30 and 6.

 

[Kingsley Court]

The lakers are a better team then the nuggets, plain and simple. Just wait till playoff time when the Lakers start playing. The Lakers have 42 wins this year, and that's with them battling injuries. Just because you hate LA, doesn't mean they aren't the best team in the league. Just watch the playoffs and you'll find that out.

 

[DontMissHim]

Yeah, I wasnt so sure why he left out Odom as a forward...or why he didnt have Kobe as a guard. They could potentially have Odom as the 3, Gasol as the 4 and Bynum as the 5 with Kobe as the 2....ridiculous.

It was a brief write up, calm yourself. You clearly dont have a clue based off the comparisons you threw up.

Just because you left out some of the best players in the league today, doesn't excuse yourself with the "a brief write up." Lets face it, Lakers are the team to beat and everyone who doesn't have it out for LA knows it.

Agree they are the team to beat but I will take Denver as of today. Most people think Lakers are the team but give me Denver.
