Denver could easily have been swept this series. They're lucky to be up 3-1.

This is just delaying the inevitable. I'd rather the Suns and Lakers get swept so we can get onto the Denver/Minny showdown.
But maybe we get some sweet Jokic highlights in game 5.

Good showing by the Lakers. The Nuggets need to find their top gear ASAP. They play like this against the Wolves and they're going down.

I don’t think it elongates the series time if they sweep though. I think they said it would be a week off if they won tonight

I’m still hurting from the other losses. Hard to be happy when you should be up 3-1 or 2-2 at worst.
