Can you believe this.  Denver throws it away again at the end of the game.

Ugh.  The Nuggets choked on the inbounds pass again.

The Nuggets may want to practice inbounds plays :(

When they run those replays they look like the exact same play.

Looks like Denver just gagged away HCA.  Sucks.  I hate the Lakers.

poor kobe... he looks so tired.  :(

lol... comeonnnnn

I don't get how people call Lebron the "drama queen".  Give me a break.  The chick goes to Kobe, "kobe you are so exhausted... how have you done this" and then Kobe realizes "oh I should really sell this" and buckles over and starts acting like he's half dead.  Ridiculous.

Melo really failed his team at the end there.  They needed a big 4th quarter from him (and Billups) and neither of them were particularly great - though at least Billups kept his team in it for the most part, aside from that idiotic 3 from a few feet behind the arc at the end of the game.

As much as some here might hate to admit it, Kobe showed how great of a closer he is at the end of Game 3.  Melo and Billups couldn't match it, and the Nuggets lost.

Not to mention all those stupid 3s the Nuggets chucked up earlier in the game which prevented them from building a greater lead.  Oh, and the fact that they can't make decent in bounds passes at the end of games.

Chauncey Billups takes a lot of really dumb shots, and they're usually pull up threes like the one he threw up near the end (however, that was not the only stupid shot he took in game 3).
Grab a few boards, keep the TO's under 14, close out on shooters and we'll win.

George Karl better figure out which are the best 5 players  to use in closing out games in this series.I notice the Nuggets always seem to make a couple boneheaded plays  towards the end of games.Why isn't George Karl using Billups to make the  inbounds passes...he is least likely to make a dumb pass. 

live by the 3 and die by it...they were successful in the first couple rounds with the 3's,and now its something they think will work always.Its called fools gold.

After todays game that was pretty much just handed over to the Lakers - anyone feel they just dont have what it takes to win this series? Dissapointing, out of the teams left I felt Denver would be the ones to take out the crybaby Lakers but its not looking good.
