What Happen??
Truthfully it's a god-damn game! Denver was like playing cheat or trick and caused Lakers kept on getting fouled hell yeah i know that's part of skills too. lols. With no doubt... Denver did pretty good in this game it's most probably because of they ain't depending on 1 player. They did it a TEAM! Everyone get scored and performed well by their super teamwork which Lakers didn't has.
Especially bleedy Billups (Denver) that kept on fouling Laker's player by tricky lay-up. lols. What to do, they good in it. Lakers is in stress when playing this game because it's hard for them to pull back tyhe points. Maximum 2 points and then the points is getting further again.
I'm so unhappy in writing this haha because I'm Lakers Supporter!! But Denver really did a good job sooo....we shall stay tune to Laker's performance~ ^^
p/s: Congrats to Kobe again for hitting 41points tonight
