Series Thread: 1st Round: 2) Nuggets vs 7) Lakers

[PPhan]

Yeah, odds are it's going to happen eventually. If/when it does, it's likely going to be a team similar to the Lakers. One that has played the first 3 games close and/or where the team leading the series lost a top player.

There was a time where no team had come back from 3-1 either.

Don't see this years Lakers being the ones to do it, but who knows?

Jokic is the key.

If Jokic (God fobid) gets injured in practice and is out for the next 2 weeks, then the Lakers will win the next 3 games.

Crazier things have happened. We we're only a Murray missed shot away in Game 2 for this series to be 2-2

Not making excuses, but at least the games haven't been complete blow outs.

Yeah, that's the one thing that gives some kind of hope for them to pull this off. During the Nugs entire streak, the Lakers have had opportunities to win late, the Nugs just executed better down the stretch.

Again, don't see it happening...gonna watch anyway. lol

Well it would’ve went to OT if Murray missed that shot so it was anyone’s game by that point with a slight advantage towards Denver as they were rolling in that 4th quarter.

Good point. For some reason I thought the Lakers were up by one

Gonna watch and keep my fingers crossed.

Never expected them to win this series, but it's a heck of a lot more fun if it's more competitive.

Can you imagine the noise at Staples if this goes to a game 6?

I’m in the same boat. I know I’m going to an execution on Tuesday night. But I’m not missing it for the world haha

 

[shopson67]

You never know. Zion might catch fire!

Self-immolation aside, lol

 

[Duffman]

I’m hoping for a good Nuggets win tonight. I won’t be able to watch as I’m at the WWE Raw taping here in KC but let’s close this out Denver!!!!!!

If the Lakers can take this series back to L.A., Denver will be in trouble. Biggest game of the year for both teams.

 

[Shaqdaddy11]

Another fuck up by the refs

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Denver not displaying any urgency at all....at least not yet.
Lakers look more determined to win this and bring it back to LA...and they rightly should,

 

[trojanfight]

Seems doubtful we are going to see Vanderbilt or wood

 

[Retroram52]

That is different. Nuggies win the First Quarter.

 

[trojanfan12]

That Lebron play looked awkward.

Seems like it should have been either Lakers ball out of bounds because he was fouled when he landed or travelling because of the 2nd jump.

Lakers going to win this series

The Lakers are pounding it down low to AD!

 

[Retroram52]

The lead has grown to Seven

Lakers going to win this series

Quiet you.

You're gonna jinx away whatever slim chance they have.

 

[Retroram52]

Hachimura still has to get going!

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

It seems someone (not this officiating crew) is trying to throw this game.

Just an observation...so ease up on the blowback.
