Mark March 19th on the calendar. The big rematch. Nuggets vs Lakers.
Its a national televised game so it got a bunch of attention, but the idea that the lakers came up with some master playoff game plan is crazy lmao. You do realize we have no center besides jaxson hayes and been playing this same way vs every big center? They didnt do anything new to jokic that they didnt do to KAT in NY & held him like jokic to a whopping 11 points & 6 rebound game. Took zubac out the game with same game plan vs clippers, did same to celtics etc lol. Theres a reason they are ranked #1 defense & #1 in scoring in their last 18 games. This is just how lakers play
To me is funny how nuggets fans/media only count the wins SINCE THEY STARTED WINNING ๐ what about the 114-80 all time LAKERS RECORD? Im a fans since 99 what about all the times Kobe smacked the nuggets out the playoffs from 07-2012? Yall didnt even make the playoffs all those years until the bubble and got put away in 5! Put somehow all thats the past and only the last 15 games matter ๐๐๐๐ Yall been good 2 seasons and now yall call our win a superbowl LMAO insane..
What yall gon do with Luka??
Double him? Lol
Cool
We got Bron
The greatest 2nd option of all time! ๐
Luka will get his 1st chip
Before Jokic gets his 2nd
You guys lost to the wolves in the offs. Luka destroyed the wolves.
Lost to the blazers and wizards this year.
This guy's are shaking in their boots after what the Lakers have done to there Nuggets ๐๐ yes you have a 9 game winning streak but it's against bad teams
No. I mean aside from the fact the front office have been wasting Jokic's prime for years, and still wouldn't get any help before the deadline, we have a coach who allows the best player and scorer in the world to keep having games where he opts not to shoot much or near as much as he should be. He can still facilitate and get everyone involved whilst having 20 FGA but Malone is like you do whatever you want to do Jokic even when it's clearly costing us wins or we're having to claw back big deficits and making things harder than they need to be. This cost us the #1 seed in game 81 against the Spurs last year. How many FGA did Jokic have in 3 quarters or even 3.5 and I don't mean full court heaves or his own offensive rebounds.
They won 9 in a row and took a game off in the regular season. No big deal. Lakers fans treating it like their championship is just sad.
No team is winning 3 championships in 7 years. This isn't David Sterns league
It's a crazy loss. The unfortunate part of this is, it just might have cost Jokic his MVP because the Media right now is hellbent on looking for any reason to give it to Shai. This one seals the deal. So this is a very big game loss.
Lakers game was just a large numbers game. After 9 wins in a row and after all these Lakers wins, we had to lose that game.
Lol Nuggets are getting deep fried again in March.
Let see if lakers to win after trade luka. But for me im not worrying still the denver nuggets is the most contentder among them. Its one game only bas long jokic is the same goat and her iq is so important to me no matter what hoping the same denver nuggets ๐ช๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ to go to the championship in2025 prayed for them is the most important than to bash or panicking lets go nuggets ๐ช๐ ๐ ๐๐ฎ win or loose youre the ๐๐๐ champion ๐๐๐
If every team play jokic like the last game we're screwed
