[QUOTE="HardofWhoring, post: 8841873, member: 674149"] The nuggets might be better than Miami, but the Lakers are a better team than Denver. I just think Denver is incredibly overrated. Denver has an average road record, and the best home record in the conference. It's all about the elevation. You can't go there during a basketball season, not get a few days to get acclimated, and expect to play at your best ability. They get the #1 seed, the homecourt advantage, and so right at game one, they have that big advantage on everyone. The Lakers were tired out the first game, because of the elevation, and less than 48 hours between games is not enough time to get acclimated and rested. They never stood a chance. That game 3 and 4, the entire team was wore out before the game started, they didn't drive, those second halfs they weren't even playing defense inside the 3 point line. The lakers are a better basketball team, but the elevation made the Nuggets better athletes under those circumstances. Miami is only in it because they get an extra day between games. Boston and LA would have been a better series. [/QUOTE]
