All they have is post lmao
LeBron will get his. Don’t know why we have Jeff Green on him there
12 point lead. Now build on it. Don’t play like you’re up 12. Play like it’s tied. Keep pushing!!
Murray on LBJ is overmatched
Can we stop switching Murray onto Lebron, thanks
Gordon This is your moment buddy
Keep shooting over this fool Reaves
No jinx but that’s the best quarter we could have hoped for LFG
Lakers look completely out of the nuggets league right now
well that was a quarter for sure great play, bit lucky with some of the shots falling which might come down, but overall great play
This Nuggets team is full of DOGS. We’re up 12, on pace for the munder.
Murray can’t keep switching onto Lebron
I’ll live with giving up Lebron post ups. He will wear out early in the series doing that
DON’T LET LEBRON JUST DRIBBLE THE BALL UP THE COURT WITHOUT PRESS
Is Murray having a Murray game or a Murray game?
The music in this Adobe commercial makes me want to commit war crimes
Its gonna suck when Bruce Brown leaves and secures his bag
I like that AD held Jokic arm and I’m sure Jokic was doing his own thing then Jok decided to run down the court real fast to get the advantage. Mean while AD stayed complaining
Gonna have to adjust that Murray switch onto Lebron
Keep shoving our foots down their throats !!! Let’s go NUGS!!!
Keep your foot on the gas boys
I hate the three guard lineup vs that lakers lineup
Game is far from over
In my wildest dreams I couldn’t have asked for a better 1st quarter.
Why they making such a big deal about Lakers number 1 defensive rating in the playoffs? Aren’t Nuggets number 2?
They talking like its Legion of Boom vs Broncos here
Giving up some easy points to LBJ ,Murray shouldn’t be the one ending up on him twice on defense. Good quarter Jokic is a monster , MPJ needs more shots gotta keep it up
WHy THE FUCK IS JEFF ON LEBRON..
Gotta stop letting the lakers switching LeBron onto Murray
#RISE UP NUGGETS NATION
Jok has an entire Draymond statline already
What a quarter. Came out and punched ’em in the chain LFG
I’ll take a 12pt lead but we have to close quarters better. Green on Bron is an absolute nightmare matchup
Keep the energy high, loved the quarter
Murray on James lookin like Embiid guarding Tatum rn. Need better help on the switch
50 rebound game incoming
DJ is a prefect fit. They have no big when AD go out
Take a moment to switch back
When we score 35 points in a quarter, we tend to win. It’s just science.
Solid first quarter. Little too much of a letoff in the last three minutes or so, but let’s hope the focus is sharp coming into the 2nd. Lakers with LeBron on the floor are going to have energy and he’s going to try to set the tone on D. Ideally, we make him run.
Don’t let Jeff or Jamal get on Lebron- ffs. They’re going to exploit that this quarter
We can’t let the Lakers get momentum or repeat the Suns bullshit or blowing this lead
Jokic on pace for 48 rebounds.
Who is going to rebound against Jokic? Easy boards lmao
Good quarter. Gotta keep the offensive execution up, there was some really good cutting and screening going on.
Defensively, gotta get back quicker and avoid switching unless necessary.
Near ideal start keep it up nuggies
Only note is that they should try to switch out Murray guarding Bron whenever possible bron just gonna go at Mal and put him under the basket basically any chance he gets
Jeff Green putting no effort into fighting through screens and giving the easy switch for LeBron on Murray is maddening to me
Love the pace we came out with, need to stagger the core but I think if we keep running the lakers will quickly get tired
Now just have to stop those Murray switches
