Game 2, WCF : Los Angeles Lakers #7 @ Denver Nuggets #1 (0-1)

Post #1 » by **THE J0KER** » Thu May 18, 2023 3:17 am

Denver didn't lose a single game in Denver since March but note that against Minnesota and Phoenix both, we routinely won game #1 but in both games #2 opponent lead at some point in the final quarter! That said, it is fair to note that LA Lakers underperformed too in 2nd games compared to 1st on the road against Memphis and GSW both!

Winning at home is crucial if we want a title this year!

This is a crucial game, what's worrisome to me is Malone KNOWS the Lakers are going to make their adjustments, let's see if Malone is smart enough to make some of his own....or will we have to wait for Coach Jokic to do it for him

We will soon find out but I think they first have to figure out how to better control the switches such that Murray is not left to defend LeBron.

Im convinced Silver is determined to take all these series to Game 7 if he can. Its a joke at this point. May as well be Vince Mcmahon owning the NBA. Is Fing disgusting how the Refs are always taking games over

Clear push in the back of Jokic and NO CALL ??

Man this is one garbage game. Denver aint playing well at all.

Murray playing his Jeckell/Hyde series so far. Hachimura playing over his head, and the refs doing their job on MPJ and the Nuggets

Lakers getting 15 points from the refs to 6pts to the Nuggets...not shocked at all :roll:

Is Denver gonna play any defense at all tonight?

Win or lose Malone needs to be s**canned at the end of the season. Rotten coach

are murry and porter going to show up?

DorianRo · Post #19 » by **DorianRo** » Fri May 19, 2023 2:28 am

About time Murray shows up. Nugs getting hot when they need it. This game probably determines the series
