The Denver Nuggets, in their rematch vs the Los Angeles Lakers in the 2024 NBA Playoffs, have jumped out to an early 2-0 series lead in a wild fashion. In games where Nikola Jokic, Jamal Murray & company have been met with different defense packages and new ways of attacking on offense, some believe Michael Malone & the Nuggets should not be in the position they are. Yet, the way they’ve taken down LeBron, Anthony Davis, & company, it just makes them even more unbeatable.
To start with the Nuggets offense, they’ve attacked Darvin Ham & the Lakers defensive adjustments in a number of different ways. Whether it be through utilizing the Nikola Jokic & Jamal Murray pick and roll, going to outside shooting from KCP, Michael Porter Jr (MPJ), Christian Braun, Peyton Watson, or even post presences like Aaron Gordon, & of course Reggie Jackson, etc, Michael Malone has worked wonders to win both these opening games of the NBA playoffs first round.
In terms of the Denver Nuggets defense vs Los Angeles Lakers, it has been up to standards and should continue with how well the Lakers have performed offensively from guys like D’Angelo Russell, Austin Reaves, AD, LeBron, etc. But if the Joker, Jamal Murray & his game winner, and company continue at the pace they’re at, I don’t know if anyone is going to be able to stop the 2024 Denver Nuggets.

They showed us that the alleged "GOAT" will choke when it's time to shine at the end of the game almost every time (as the past has shown) even when he's on the floor with a top 10 player. Jordan would never let this butt pounding take place with a team that good to ANYONE.
no offense man- but you have a verbal tic: "The Nuggets. They….". Just say the subject of sentence once. No need to say it and then use the pronoun. You do it a lot- likely a habit you don't even notice.
I like your content and mean this in a spirit of constructiveness.
Offensive Rebounds: Game 1: Nuggets 15, Lakers 6 Game 2: Nuggets 9, Lakers 4
Not even the refs can stop Denver 😊 The bias for LeFlop and LA is atrocious. Watch the foul differential during this series.
OPEN
Nuggets going 16-6 this post season
Yeah I've seen videos and posts and comments about how the Lakers are still in it and I'm just like what is going to happen when the nuggets start making threes? Where is the the path to victory?
They stay healthy – they win!
They'll sweep Lakers. The Nuggets stomped on Lakers' heart in game 2.
Incoming 🧹🧹🧹🧹
When the ball moves — magic happens. Denver gets this.
1 pass can beat 5 defenders.
Love their style of basketball.
They are the tiki-taka of the NBA.
AD doesn’t deserve this.
DNVR was terrible in fist half.They missed too many open shots and Jamal is right.They will start 3th game so hard and they will realized open shots.Nobody dont have what DNVR having,mastermind of basketball,the Joker.Idemo Nuggets
Why NBA media still talk LBJ surpassed MJ as GOAT?
No, the Lakers did not play their A game. Look at bench scoring, rebounding, and the numbers of all 5 starters on each team. Lakers don't play their A game when they score 68 points in the first half and 40 in the second.
The problem with the Lakers is not making timely plays and not having the X factor guys step up. X factor guys are guys on the bench, guys that make that save, get that 50/50 ball. Guys like Rui or Prince or maybe Vincent are. And regular contributors like AR haven't gotten it going either.
Porter Jr and Gordon are playing big. I'm not sure why the Lakers just don't beat the Nuggets. But there is the law of averages. And the Lakers have to figure it out. But some guys, X factor guys, need to get going. AD and Bron and Jokic and Murray have been analyzed to death. But I say look beyond that. Look at coaching, and timliness of time outs and adjustments as well.
Most surprising part of this series to me is that some clowns are still having a Lebron Goat debate
lets just hope the refs don't interfere (which we know they will)
I think Denver will play much better in LA. Seems they were a little too comfortable at home. Their focus should be much sharper tomorrow night. I could see Denver blowing LA out if they get rolling.
Loved watching lebitch and the Lakers lose
500 more free throws this season vs their apponents and still needed the play inn😂
That was nuts.
man if they get through the Wolves, OKC, and CELTICS? – THEY MUST BE CEMENTED IN STATUES RIGHT AWAY – 2020s NUGGETS IS THE TEAM
Lebron getting a taste of what he did to the Raptors for years from the Nuggets, and its swweeeeeeeet.
Yep, pretty much right on
You are hella annoying
jj redick is now helping lebron and the lakers coaching staff to try and figure out sum kind of adjustment to slow denver down
so you're telling me even 20 pts lead going into the second half against the nuggets is not enough to win the game?
The only deficiency i see hurting us when our offense is stuck is a tendancy towards indecision. Everyone plays so unselfishly, and joker more than anyone wants to spread the energy through the looks only he can provide, but sometimes i wish he would take that open floater instead of the kick out. Their catch and shoot instinct doesnt always kick in fast enough. You can see the space from the first move as the defense recovers, and then its a pass instead of a shot. Realizing that being more aggressive can lead to more missed shots, in this series weve done well getting 2nd chance and offensive boards. Against teams that tie joker up AG or MPJ have to step up cleaning the glass. Still think nuggets fans should be bringin their brooms to games 3&4. Lets make it 12-0!
if JM & KCP have a good game the Nuggets beat the fakers easily, that may happen tomorrow night
O being a fan of the nuggets since the 80s I love what Denver's doing….jokic could of course be considered an all time great but in my opinion he could be best ever he's got it all…but not sure cause for me birds #1
Many are talking about Anthony Davis celebrating with the Nuggets bench. I saw it more as David (Jamal Murray) toppling Goliath (AD) as he came tumbling down. 😂
All Star disrispect karma
how the hell did MPJ know it was going in that early?
yes, wait till denver plays out of their heads…scary thought.
