    Momentum changes so quickly when you hit a couple of shots in a row.

  2. DaHagerBomb

    A white man can hear a fellow white man’s footsteps louder than anything in the world. Reaves played that game and lost

  4. shaad20

    Great game, very entertaining…

    But what in the actual fuck was Adam Sandler wearing??

  5. Thor3nce

    What an exciting game!! GG

    Aaron Gordon is a beast and tons of fun to watch.

  6. lannistargaryen

    Denver killed my boner in like 30 seconds lmfao

  7. landlion35

    Colorado did not consent to a LA win on Kobe night!

  8. mastacheef87

    Nuggets just run teams over in crunch time.

  10. Guardax

    The burst to just quickly ice the game after the announcers and crowd came after the Reaves three was ice fucking cold. Champ shit

  11. abris33

    Always nice when we can ruin Reggie Miller’s night

  13. NotManyBuses

    Reaves gambling on that steal was never gonna work on Jokic. Too easy

  15. Major9000

    The last 2 min close-out by the Nuggets was badass.

  16. Blumpkin_Party

    Jamal Murray is such a big game player man. When the lights are brightest you know that MF will ball out.

  17. DefenderCone97

    Lakers just would not learn to stop gambling on MPJ open 3s. Jesus Christ

  18. Vermillion_Crab

    Jokes on you that’s another moral victory for the Lakers.

  19. doublegoldendragon

    Murray goes off

    Confirmed – Lakers a good team

  21. camp1728

    I actually thought that was a pretty entertaining game to watch. Happy I tuned in. Nuggets are without a doubt the better team but still entertaining to see the runs by both teams.

  22. Happy-Cauliflower-22

    The nuggets are so fucking good man. I could see them repeating. Just watching them dissect the lakers at the end, it was literally like flipping a switch

  23. commandrr

    that 8-0 burst at the end shows you exactly why the nuggets are still the title favorites. championship pedigree sheesh

  24. Charliebitme1234

    Jamal Murray has that mamba mentality

    That austin reaves steal attempt at the end was one of the stupidest plays i have ever seen

    extend the sweep streak to 6-0 lesgo

  25. riptide123

    Ya no one is beating jokic and Murray in a best of seven

  26. DarthNightnaricus

    Lakers confirmed good team, Jamal Murray played well.against them

  27. Embarrassed_Hold_901

    The West top 4 is ridiculous. The top 4 have each been 1st in this week alone. Ridiculous

  28. Sure_Station9370

    Lakers losing because they only got 20 more free throws than the other team instead of 30 😡

  29. BigBoyFroggy

    Denver Lakers games are funny because it’s like Denver just randomly decides “Oh yeah games almost over might as well win” and just hits all their shots

  31. AbelardsArdor

    Second half refs were absolutely ON ONE. 22 FTs to 7, 17 fouls called on Denver to 10 on the Lakers despite them mugging Jokic absolutely constantly whenever he tried to move. I mean multiple times when he “turned it over” there was clear and irrefutable contact with a Laker arm all around his back or reaching in and also hitting his arms. And yet the Nuggets still win by 10 [basically – LeBrons last layup counts but the game was over at that point].

  32. gandaalf

    That was a fun ass game. Tuned in at just the right time to see the Lakers make their run. That Nugs team is still just too good. Should def be the favs again

  33. awntawn

    Apparently the Nuggets have lost games this season but I just don’t see how anyone beats what we just watched.

  34. LACIRCA2044

    once again Jokic is the only Nugget going to all star weekend. Like the NbA couldn’t even get like Payton Watson in the Rising Stars game or MPJ in the 3 point contest?

  35. ElectricLotus

    Title: *”Parade of free throws and all out effort not enough to overcome championship execution in the clutch”*

  36. LAmanguy

    Denver is such a good team. Their roster doesn’t seem deep on paper but they are clutch

  37. WisdumbGuy

    Nuggets just have that closing power, I’ve rarely seen something like this. They did it all last season but it’s still crazy to watch them just take over right when they need to most. Murray is a straight beast
