We’re gonna get swept, we had close to 10 minutes with Jokic on the bench in the third. We tied it twice and got ahead of them twice. And then our offence stagnates, we turn it over and we step away from what’s been working offensively to shoot early shot clock contested 3s.

We gave this game away and it never looked like we cared to win it.

Time to think about what’s next for this team. I’d say we blow it all up. Coach, stars, everything.

Ham doesn't know is personnel and LeBron is old... Look for the team that has the best shot at drafting Bronny and trade lebron to them now, fire Ham and see if you have a shot at rebuilding around AD... If not, trade him...

Yeah the Lebron AD era should be over. Neither can stay healthy long enough for us to build any real chemistry. To be honest this always felt like 08' when we got Pau. We had a great run, but ultimately came up short against a team that had been together all year. That's exactly what happened this time too. We had a great run the second half of the season, but denver has been together for years and they're healthy. Also starting 2-10 didn't help.

Dude started the 4th Quarter with NO AD

Then Benched Lebron at a crucial moment

Nuggets played Jokic and Murray the whole second half in game 2 and 1.

This was a must win game……

That wasn't Lakers fans... Care for the "Take a break from Realgm for baiting, take?"

And why the hell you talking? Can you give a quick update on how KD and Booker are doing in Cancun...

No one ever said anything of the sort on this board. I think it’s best for you to go back to the putrid General Board.

D Lo’s side has been attacked non-stop by Malone. As predicted. How can Ham not see it?

Some times people over think things. He should have just stuck to what was working. Now he may have cost himself his job.

Never said it was Lakers fan. But you sure got offended like it was. If the shoe fits. And they're waiting for Lebron and AD to arrive. :lol:.

Gotta admit this hits different because it feels like we really gave two away in Denver and made costly mistakes this game too. It does not feel like this team dominated us. They are obviously the better team at the moment because they're up 3-0, but it feels like we beat ourselves out there these three games.

Nah, that’s crazy.

Re-sign Rui and Reaves. Russell’s price tag is dropping like a stone. Use Bamba and/or Beasley plus the 1st round pick to find one more playoff caliber player. This season was a success regardless of the result of this series.

All these losers that come talking ish know that we overachieved this season. They want to make it seem like this season was a failure. We weren't even suppose to be here. The haters know we went far and beyond their favorite team and they just want to downplay our achievement. Watch out next season, we're going to be dangerous.

I'm proud of our guys.
