These fouls are ridiculous. The Nuggets are already in the bonus with 9 minutes to go in the quarter.

Lebrons done a bad job containing penetration this game when guys are attacking closeouts

LeBron needs to operate in the post. His shot looks bad and he doesn't want to drive right now.

This game is over.

Ad has to be better with Jamal Murray on him in the high post......

Jeremi Grant has to be top 5 most underrated players in the league. Denver has to do whatever they can to keep him. Prolly the most versatile defender short of Ad, Bam and Simmons in the league. Really athletic and makes some nice offensive plays, decent shooter, good cutter.

Prolly only a handful of role players in the league that wouldve finished a 2 on 1 fastbreak with Bron/Ad trailing

Lebron has got to be more aggressive.

He's starting to dip into the energy tank now. 3 straight buckets and a block.

Let's see how long he lasts. At least its the second half this time.

They cannot guard the Murray-Jokic PnR.

Honestly feeling like this series might be in jeopardy.

JLei · Post #390 » by **JLei** » Wed Sep 23, 2020 2:53 am

If they keep it to 10 by the end of the 3rd. Lebron has one more burst with the beginning of the 4th quarter bench lineup. Otherwise they getting blown out.

Maybe Lebron and AD especially will be more aggressive next gamev

If Denver started the series with the gameplan they have now, they'd definitely win this series imo. Being down 2-0 is probably going to be tough though. They've looked like by far the better team since they adjusted after halftime of G2.

It is but the Lakers could have easily been down 2-1 if AD didn't make an impossible shot. They have no answer for Jokic and Murray.

I've never seen a play feel as unguardable as Jokic Murray Spread pnr. I think part of what fueled their comebacks is just the feeling of inevitability that teams feel defending it.

I understand there is a rotation scheme.... but you gotta play AD and LeBron when down by 10. That's when you can't afford to go down 10+. It's the 3rd. What is he doing? Sparing them for when there is no chance of recovery?

Yeah this is definitely a punted game

Murray is just unguardable. Even Caruso looks silly on him.

When Jerami Grant is outscoring LeBron & AD, its just not your night.
