Lakers and Lebron playing well, Denver not sharp but only 4 point game. Denver will catch fire eventually

Who’s the 2nd option? Where’s the young upside? Have they hit on any draft pick the last few years? Most of their moves have been treadmill like.

There’s a lot of parity across the NBA, it’s nice to see.

The raptors however, definitely should have tanked.

Tristan Thompson? Whaaat?

Guess we won't see Bamba after all

Denver is just going through the motions.

Lebron doesn't like a strong younger guy being physical with him. He can dish it out but can't take it, like when he smashed the nose of pistons' Stewart

After game 3 last night, it’s hard to see the Celtics coming out with this kind of effort tomorrow. Lakers are playing hard.

With the way Denver is playing this game, it's a lot closer than it should be.

"Basically Lebron, KD, Jokic, Giannis, Kawhi. Butler is in that next tier. Fred and Pascal are getting close though "

How close? :lol:

Warned. stop baiting.

Refs want a game 5

WaltFrazier · Post #1672 » by **WaltFrazier** » Tue May 23, 2023 1:42 am

Refs just decided to change the game. So blatant the last few minutes

amazing. Nuggets in 4.

WaltFrazier · Post #1674 » by **WaltFrazier** » Tue May 23, 2023 1:45 am

The answer to what jvg just said is, why don't they just call it the same at both ends

RapsAndJays21 · Post #1675 » by **RapsAndJays21** » Tue May 23, 2023 1:45 am

Jokic 4th foul in the first minute or so for sure.

DemHeavyHands · Post #1676 » by **DemHeavyHands** » Tue May 23, 2023 1:45 am

Lebron leaving the court early he clearly needs to take a ****

You see him untying his shorts as he walked thru the tunnel :lol:

Tha Cynic · Post #1677 » by **Tha Cynic** » Tue May 23, 2023 1:46 am

Damn, refs activated by the Lakers in those last 5 minutes. Lmao

traps#10 · Post #1678 » by **traps#10** » Tue May 23, 2023 1:46 am

Tick tack fouls called on Nuggets but no calls on Lakers, nice

That "foul" on Davis happens on every play. That's not a foul. I hate how they focus so hard on saying, that is a foul when Denver does something that never gets called for a foul. Then when they showed the phantom call on Murray and Jokic, crickets.
