It shows how good are Jokic and Murray


It’s pretty solid imo… and they have a depth of 4 more solid rotational player as well

You mean all Foster could do is cut the lead by 1.

They won’t see any 4th quarter action thankfully but the issue is they got way too much run. Again this series has been Denver +12. Through 3 games. Dlos minutes have been -60. Just embarrassing

He might foul out half way from 0 contact.

Crying about refs has been the go-to LeBron hater move for GOD knows how long whenever things don't go the way they want them to. They want him to lose so bad that they'll literally attribute whatever success he has to anybody but his team.

From watching the ECF and thinking " Whats Jimmy gonna do to carry his team over the Celts " to watching this game and thinking " Whats the refs gonna do to carry the Lakers over the Nuggets "

Sigh

I don't usually have time to watch games because of work that' s why i when i can watch, i kknda want good games where players go beast-mode not refs takong over

Dude was also atrocious in 2021 playoffs.

He made big shots in 2020 and is doing the same this series. He got punished for Devin Booker's explosion after AD went down, but he's shown he's capable of stepping up in big moments.
