They Won by 6 a win is a win. Wtf do you expect these two are rivals and In the playoffs.
Man! The Nuggets can get to 3-0 and the national media will still say : "The Lakers have them on the ropes!"
i think its funny how all these lakers panderer's arguement now is that the lakers can be beat by a good half and are acting like that is something denver needs to be afraid of
And so did AD and Bron played 40+ minutes. So they cancel each other out for playing time.
Nuggets in 6 maybe 5
The Joker ain’t no Joke
Lebron got to the rim whenever he drove the ball down hill! Expecting alot of that game 2!
Can you be anymore of a Denver hater
“Jokic is the one seed” lmfao have you seen the records in the east
Congrats Lakers on the league HANDING you another championship ring 2023. The last time the Lakers won a championship was when Kobe was running the show. Now the league just riggs the game for Lachina to beat Micheal Jordan in over all rings. Nba sucks and I'm glad I was a fan when they had greats like Bryant, Magic, Bird, Russell, Coosey, Alcinder, Julius, West. Now they are a bunch of weak fruits that flop allot.
Everyone talking after is all said and done. NBA loosing face ever increasingly, but they just don't care. Their buisness is going gr8, thick skin perk unlocked, money is the only thing on their minds. Respect, loyalty and fundamentals were blocked by greed, politics and lobying. Fact will always remain, they robbed a hall of famer of history and we can argue Joker said he didn't care, but that is obviously a lie. Anyone who has ever been a "fighter" will agree. That much fight in a person, wants recognition. Embiid will never live up to this years MVP title. While he is a legit candidate, he is nowhere near Joker's value. Period. I've watched the NBA from the Bird era and this is not the league I've once respected.
Lakers in 7 we all know The Lakers and Celtics story line is way more compelling and must see NBA. Just facts
Embiid got that affirmative action mvp lol
Joker is also white… so there’s one of the reasons…
Colin is bother by embiid mvp. Remember sixers has a better record than denver this year
Defense wins championships lets go do not go out bad long live lakers dynasty team work you want a ring don't you
Made me feel good to hear Colin say that about AD he wanted him to be traded for awhile glad he’s come around
Jokic is the real MVP. Embiid is the affirmative action MVP.
Its like the NBA media pass around a memo of talking points for the Lakers lol it wasn't adjustments, nuggets started making mistakes and like every good team in every sport lakers punished them for it. Thats why Malone was so heated in the fourth. CB0 missed open shots , uncle jeff missed open shots and 3 dunks. They lost composure plain and simple. Happened during the regular season. Wint happen twice. The gawk gawk squad rides hard for lakers though smh
If the Lakers are going to win this series AD cannot regress offensively for multiple games like he did in the first two series.
Lakers can’t win if the player on their Team with the most minutes is Austin Reaves . I like the Kid but that’s too many minutes. That leads to big mistakes late because of fatigue.
I’m a Nuggets fan, but Nikola Jokic won MVP for his regular seasons performances. Now Joel Embiid won for the exact same reason. That’s fine, Jokic doesn’t care about MVPs, he wants CHAMPIONSHIPS. Embiid arguably won the MVP fair considering JUST the regular season. Any Nuggets fan of the past 4-5 years can tell you why Jokic is more valuable than Embiid, but who cares let’s get a championship.
Amazing win by LA.
He’s saying that we were hitting shots they normally miss no they don’t…. And if you think that’s true then it’s the same for the fakers
