for me its still the Lakers because there's so much hype about the lakers beating the Nuggets.
Wasn’t this the same Lebron shooting 3s in front of his house talking about he the best player in the world? What happened?
AD only had a shot in the 4th . LBJ should have driven not shot . The lakers coach is terrible . I thought they’d lose when 20 up , jokic fell over after making a shot and Murray was behind the board . The lakers passed the ball in a walked , J and M jogged past them about 1/2 court . Any normal team would recognise the 5 on 3 and push the floor . Magic Johnson made a living doing that .
When Lakers had momentum the coach called a time out and they went to the 3 point shot . Missed 5 in a row and never got a rebound . They just play terrible .
Get her off tv plz like she’s soo bad at her job omg
Lakers in 7 Lebron will Bounce back
SAS is right….that was a huge loss for the Lakers. The Lakes played on another level….Don“t know if they can play any better, and loss.
Best back to back ever!
Of course SAS would say that. Anything to sensationalize the Lakers. Phoenix are 0-2 down. Silence…
LeBron/Lakers nuts is on McNutt's mouth everytime
the lady was making face just because somebody disagreed with her. get that trash out of the program.
They made AD sit and watch them celebrate
Who’s the dude with the lipstick?
I wanna see everyone’s face if the Lakers win this series
Monica job security is glaring🤮
Lakers are the most embarrassing when they lose. First of all, the Lakers are always hyped by others, the Nuggets will not win against the Lakers. The Lakers are said to take back the Nuggets. what happened! because they haven't fought what they say against the Nuggets. now the one you are hyping is going on vacation early.🤣🤣🤣
We gotta win at home tomorrow please basketball gods lol
A 20 point lead is nothing in today's NBA.
Denver beat the lakers and said, “don’t ever forget who your daddy is”
It's like a nail in a ⚰️💀😂😂😂
The lakers literally never had a chance this is Deja vu for like the 6th time this is how the games go between the lakers and the nuggets
It stung to see the Lakers lose but as a LeBron fan I am thankful I got to see him play and follow his career I hope they can bounce back even if they don't its been a pleasure watching him and Mike before him and AI too
Both of them games got me thinking both series gone be a sweep 4-0 both series
Shannon is finding it extremely difficult to not interrupt when someone else is talking. I can tell you right now, when the Lakers are out of the playoffs, you won't see Shannon on first take as much anymore
Nuggets are just better than LA. It is what it is.
Lakers thought more of Reeves also. He is not a starter. He is a good bench player.
We lost game 2 for two reasons:
LeBron wanted to play hero ball to redeem himself from game 1 and went away from what was working.
LeBron and AD are inconsistent in closing out close games – specifically against Denver.
That's the truth, but the media tries their hardest not to point the finger at LeBron for anything.
Who’s that girl in the middle why is it always new people??!
Shannon: this is what Reggie Miller did to you in the same building ..
Stephen A: 29 years ago ( immediately answers) 😂😂😂😂
Man Stephen A can't forget what happen 🤣🤣🤣🤣
What a true fan
Lakers was destroying the Nuggets in offense and defense the whole game… until they can’t make adjustments to what the Nuggets gave to them. They are demoralized. I will be surprised if they win 1 game.
It's worse for the Lakers when you look at their history:
* Lakers' Conference Titles : 19
Nuggets Conference titles: 1
* Lakers Division titles: 33
Nuggets: 10
* Lakers Finals Championship titles: 17
Nuggets: 1
A. D. is the first player in the history of the league to have an:
* NCAA title
* NBA title
* Olympic gold
* FIBA gold
Lebron: 4 NBA titles and 2 Olympic gold medals.
Nikola: 1 Olympic silver.
With all of THIS………….
Somehow the Lakers can't get it together to overcome whatever hurdle they need to do in order to get the WIN against a team who've they have been competing with since 2022 ?
And finally…
In a game where the Lakers lead by 4 points after the 1st quarter…
15 points at the half …..
10 points after the 3rd quarter ……..
The largest lead of the night is 20 ……
And they STILL couldn't pull it off !
Lakers period.
Stop talking about the lakers as if they’re relevant espn. It’s annoying
Lakers deff more devastating 😂 nobody care bout that knicks 76ers series except ny 😂
why the f is that woman sitting there.
Lebron is a notorious loser. Playing with an MVP caliber AD. He should be ashamed. Jokic plays and has won a championship with NO ALL STAR on the team to help him.
Nuggets had over twice as many offensive rebounds: Game 1:Nuggets 15 Lakers 6 Game 2: Nuggets 9 Lakers 4
Nuggets are simply a better team. Lakers are just not good enough.
Forget about winning a championship, the Lakers won’t get past the Nuggets.
Who's the dude holding AD from a stampede
The high top fade chicks voice and inflection are unbearable
