Obviously the Nuggets will also make adjustments, Rui ain't defeating jokic lol.
Denver poking the Bear 🐻 Here we go again. 😵💫
🤣 bro are you for real you think they found something 🤣 Davis roaming the paint?🤦♂️… jokic takes two steps In the paint draws Davis right up to him ag cuts to the rim ad backs off or jokic makes a dime pass to ag or a wide open 3man💯 we knock down a couple 3’s and he won’t be roaming nothin!
Nuggets in 4. Ez
Nuggets winning 10 straight games to be nba champs actually
He's been wrong about EVERY pick against the Lakers in this post season. Lakers in 6!
All the Haters think we've not made the adjustments needed let's go Nuggets Nation!!!!!
I know the media really wants the Lakers to go to the Finals but from watching that first game even though the Lakers fought hard to come back after being down by almost 30 points, but they didn't figure anything out with Jokic yeah he missed some shots in the 4th but Denver got too comfortable with the large lead they had and L.A. took advantage of it. Even if they double team Jokic he's just gonna find someone quick and pass the ball to them, its not just about shutting down Jokic they're other good players who can score as well on the Nuggets, so I got Denver in 5.
Nuggets will win the series x and media will still talk about the lakers😂😂😂😂😂😂
The edits about to be fire once LeBron is in the finals
Mike Malone Ether lakers
Tonight is the Lakers biggest Test of this series. Tonight is the night that we all in the viewing Audience and International Community will see what Class and Quality the Lakers are definately made of. Tonight is the night that they are going to be in the Valley of Decision. Providing the Lakers lose this game their Handwriting is going to be written on the Wall. MVP. GOD is Great.
Nuggets need to keep Malone as a coach even if they lose this series.. he tells it like it is and I love it 😂
laker so confident that they have move only for game 4 or 5 and only they have next level
Love coach Malone’s attitude.
I'm starting to believe these analyst are working for the betting companies the way they talk badly about lebron.
I think Darvin Ham is a underrated coach so far. Just due to the noise always surrounding the Lakers.
Isn't Jay Williams the same person that said the warriors were going beat the lakers
I don't understand how majority of the analysts think Lakers feel good on a lost. And now Lakers may have change their lineup adding Hachimura. Most of the 20pts lead came from Nuggets transition offense which and its the same reason Nuggets recapture the lead late 4th quarter.
Yesss this what i want !! 😂 every time everybody bet against us(lakers) we win , every time everybody get on the bandwagon we lose 😂 joker poker holster lakers in 6
Wow Jokic he's POETRY IN MOTION Go Nuggets
The Lakers started Lazy.
The Nuggets played lazy for the last 4 min.
And Lakers fans act like the Lakers won.
As long time Nuggets fan I remember all those games we almost won so close.
Guess what almost won means we lost.
Laker fan thinks Rui is the answer lmfao
Y’all real funny thinking Denver gone shoot like that again then back to LA 😂 Come on now also you put a wing defender on jokic he and dribbling or blowing by them
Damn once we win this series don’t say it was given cus all I been hearing is excuses for the other team give the lakers credit when they win it all cus at the end of the day it’s about who got it done everybody healthy that still playing in the west won’t y’all to remember that please
I’m lost WHO TF SAID Rui was the answer… all we said was he had some success chill out laker haters no one’s stopping Joker duh
DWIGHT HOWARD SURE DID MAKE A DIFFERENCE
Best First Take Segment I’ve watched in a long time. Just X’s and O’s no bullshit
Why people acting like the lakers couldn’t have started any worse. 9 offensive rebounds on the 11 first shots. That literally was the game .
It's Game 2 or bust for Lebron tonight.
People the Lakers are going back to LA down 2-0 that’s real talk
people hate on LA teams but we always come out victorious 😂 i luv iit
I See what Steven A is doing 😂
When the lakers win tonight tomorrow these same dudes are gonna be raving about the lakers..
Are we not gonna talk about the elephant in the room? How The NBA has The Lakers and Celtics in The Finals and Lakers win it all in 7 after dropping 53 by LeBron??
Stop blaming the altitude lakers literally arrived in Denver a day early to adjust to it. And the so called adjustment with Hachimura on jokic was for 6 plays 😂
STEPHEN A, DOESN'T KNOW SHIT
FROM SHOE SHINE, AND SHINOLA.
What position did you play in high school. Uhhh da bench. Very good at that. Best comeback eveeerrrrr lol😂😂😂
LA is not winning. ANY TITLE. PIPE DREAMS.
Game 7 tonite for the Nuggets
Protect home turf
Steal 1 game away
And close the deal in 5
Later Lakers
Click bait not first take.
How convenient jay. “ I think Denver wins but I won’t be surprised if lakers win “. Pic ONE TEAM. Idiot.
Rui only guarded Jokic for 6 plays 😂😂
Malone is one of the realest coaches out there. He doesn’t bs around. He just keeps is 💯 all day every day.
2 shot sample size, this is why ESPN is a fckn joke
Malone is an excellent coach, and he makes the players focused and happy. He'll he got cousins to buy in, that's not easy.
"…Stephen A. confident Jokic, Nuggets will…" And where is Stephen A. here??? Why false lines, thumbnails??? Just stupid 🤷♂🤦♀
I think they had to win game 1 because of fatigue. They won both game 1s against Memphis and Warriors and then just got to LA after relaxing game 2. Now they expended energy to come back, are playing every other day, and basically have to go all in to win game 2. That’s not great for a guy that is 38 and a big man who has a lot of mileage for a 30 year old
