reading Laker fans type “why murray gets a foul call but lebron gets clobbered and doesn’t get any” is fuckin hilarious
goddamn i’m so hype from both these games i need to sleep! but hell what a couple of games!!!!
How the mighty have fallen
So we getting a Steph Bron linkup next season or what
Lakers had everything they could want. DLO hitting everything. Jamal couldn’t buy a bucket. 20 point lead with the Nuggets playing some of their worst basketball they have played all season…
Still couldn’t win.
The best thing about this comeback is Denver never really went on a run. They just chipped away while fighting off a bad night
Nuggets in 5. I think the Lakers will muster up 1 strong win at home and then it’s over
For Nuggets to actually win this basically with Jokic and MPJ and Murray at the end is great. Makes me very confident.
Sports are a beautiful thing. What a kick ass night of a double header (excluding Magic/ Cavs)
Embiid lookin down bad
wow ..Jokic 27-20-10. WHo still says he is not the MVP. I think they said only 4 times in playoff histroy has a player had a 20-20-10 game.
Jokic banging AD two straight possessions hurt my soul
That entire 4th quarter just felt like a slow steady death for the Lakers…you could just feel the sense of impending doom that the Lakers with the exception Bron and D’Angelo, were all feeling that entire 4th quarter..it was written all over their faces…especially AD, who looked downright terrified right before play started after the last timeout and shot the ball like he was scared that entire 4th quarter.
Lakers fans blaming Hamm is wild. Maybe blame the front office.
Why it felt like the nuggets couldn’t miss? Christian Braun, MPJ and Aaron Gordon all shot well. Now look at the garbage lakers supporting cast
Why are nuggets so inconsistent at 3 pt shooting bruv, thats the biggest threat to their ring
Lol Michael Jordan isn’t getting beat by the same team 10x in a row. Idc who they got on the other side
Jamal Murray.
Lakers are like Angels when they had Ohtani. Him and Trout go B2B HRs. Ohtani set a new record. Trout getting to base every time. Angels lose 3-10 and another Tungsten Arm O’Doyle.
Lakers are fatally flawed. Lack size with basically no true centers(AD is a true 4). Have a coach that loves small ball. But guess what, small ball only works if you have guards that can shoot the 3 at a high clip, so you can space the floor. Lakers got no personnel for that at all.
I think this loss says more about the Lakers than the Nuggets…Lakers lost this game more than the Nuggets won it.
This team just ALWAYS has multiple 5 minute pockets, where absolutely nothing goes in. It’s almost impressive how this team can look amazing for most of a game and suddenly completely forget how to play basketball.
This happened last season and this season again…
I ain’t even gonna lie. Fuck the Lakers and their fans 🤣
Imma say this again because it’s hilarious, the Lakers haven’t beaten Denver since WESTBROOK was on the team
Turned the game off in the 2nd quarter.
Guess who’s feeling like an idiot?
Yup.
That was a heartbreaking loss for the Lakers but their fans acting like they know the darkness now is hilarious. Trust me Laker fans you don’t know the darkness.
Dwade just texted Bron, Melo and Chris Paul a picture of himself inflating the banana boat
Lakers played a perfect game and nuggets stank up they shot horrible from 3. It was essentially just jokic vs lakers for thr 1st 3 quarters then jamal murry wakes up. Lakers played their best game while nuggets played their worst game and they still won. If I was a laker fan I would he done fan. This Is heart breaking loss
Funny thing is they would have for sure would have won the challenge of that last play of LeBron on Murray. They were calling that marginal contact all night. Ham crying about fouls but didn’t challenge that play. Hilarious
Coachella still on?
Jokic is like Michael Myers. Walks faster than his victims can run.
The nuggets mounted that 20 point comeback from the third quarter while only shooting 2-11 from three in the 2nd half of the game. Only 2 threes to mount that deficit. Crazy
I feel sorry for y’all Lakers fans. I wish LeBron never came to y’all franchise. Kobe would’ve hit that wide open 3. I’m just saying!!! Kobe always showed up against everyone especially Denver!!!
This dude says he’s the Goat bruh, how????😂.
Tell me a team Jordan lost to for 2 years in a row including the regular season. Jordan would’ve won some games cuz!!! I can’t wait til he leaves the Lakers. Y’all never needed him.
Christian Braun needs a lot of credit for this game. He came in and locked down Russell when we were making that comeback. Was on him like a wet blanket
I’m sorry to ask, but could someone please explain what a double header is? I thought I understood what it meant until the other thread said something else…
Go nuggets, imo (in my opinion)
Also that sequence that led to MPJ’s 3-pointer is the stuff of legend!
LBJ storming out of his presser just now. The replay review set him off
Michael Jeffery Jordan would have hit that open three everyday
The Lakers were killed by the Law of Averages aka Regression to the Mean
>Regression to the mean (RTM) is a statistical phenomenon that describes how measurements that are unusually large or small are often followed by measurements that are closer to the mean
Basically, the Lakers were ***HOT*** while the Nuggets were shooting ***horribly***. Jamal Murray made only 3 shots until the last 10 minutes of the game. But over time, if both teams just kept doing what they were doing, the most likely outcome would be for their overall performance to even out. As that happened, the lead evaporated.
Lebron should have stayed in Cleveland let’s be real
MJ would’ve socked Darvin Ham in the face. That’s why LeBron aint GOAT.
