This season so far is for LA Lakers' true nightmare. But they are not that bad when their BIG2+1 are healthy like tonight!

Refs still working for the Lakers, Reed gets a flagrant foul that was clearly on the Lakers

No matter how bad is current Lakers record they are arguably a good team, especially in LA... but... BUT... once you lead +10 late in the 3rd quarter and Anthony Davis was out of the game, you can't lose such a game, especially not -20!

The Nuggets were up 83-73 with 6 minutes left in the 3rd... they would proceed to get outscored 53-25 the rest of the way. Really bad defense. They desperately need a change.

Jokic laid an egg yet in another national televised game. He only had one good quarter and that was the opening quarter, if he was as aggressive in the rest of the game Denver would have won. That's why he shouldn't be in any conversation for MVP this season, too many games this season when he doesn't care. And I will continue to call for Mike Malone firing, the guy has lost this team, he can't motivate them to play any defense, even on the offense which is high ranked there is a lot of anarchy. Team is just horrible, they are playing down to competition. The natural move to shake up things is to fire the coach.

Just as I pointed out, you're only here posting in a loss....YOU'RE THAT KINDA GUY THAT NOBODY TAKES SERIOUSLY ! Nothing but a troll.

Jokics stat line was 25/11/8 not exactly an egg. If you want to say anything it's the defense never went onto the court, especially with AD out of the game.

He should have abused Bryant , yet it was him who owned Denver in the second half instead. Jokic should have dropped another 40 points instead of that he let the Lakers embarrassed Denver on the National TV. Jokic had one dominant quarter in the game and that was the first quarter. I am not trolling anybody, I am being realistic here.

Well, if it acts like a troll and posts like a troll, it's a troll. And unless you can play better than Jokic, you really got no room to talk, buddy, there's nothing wrong with his game. Seems you just wanna bitch at something every forum you go to.

Sorry but no. They are not. They won´t make even the Play ins. There is no argue they are good team.

I took a slack for saying we are not true contenders yet you kinda look for excuses for losing to a team that will miss PO twice in a row.

I mean sure, those games can happen, Celtics recently lost a home game against Magic. Just saying this was a really bad loss.

A team with 3 HoF players with two of them still playing on an all-star level can't be bad. Two and a half years ago they won the championship! In the past two seasons, LeBron missed more than third games, while Davis more than half games, which is the main reason for the poor record last two seasons, and problems continued this season as well.

Losing a game with a -20 margin where you lead +10 late in the third quarter is a terrible thing no matter who is the opponent.

And in the games Davis played they were 17-23 and when LeBron played 25-31. They weren´t even decent when their stars played. I respect your opinion but lottery teams are not good.
