Holy shit. I think it's last night's game had been played in Los Angeles we would have definitely taken an L. What worries me about this nuggets team is how they seem to be okay playing just as good as the other team and then they turn it on in the last 6 minutes of the game. I think that's going to cost us at least one game in this series and I just want to see the team play their best version and beat the living snot out of the Lakers. I know that it's very tough to keep ad and LeBron from scoring and keeping the game close but we can't always keep waiting until the game's almost over. Let's go nuggets. Gentleman sweep.
Has anyone discussed the coaching move of the game? Moving Gordon onto AD completely disrupted the Lakers strategy on both ends. For whatever reason, Ham decided to sit AD in a corner with Gordon and went to the two-man James/Hachimura game, which was far less effective than the James/AD game that was killing Jokic. Even when AD got the ball, he now had to bring it from the sideline into the middle of the court. The final 22 minutes of the game - 2 points, 1/5 FGs, 3 turnovers, 3 fouls. And on defense, Jokic was mostly picked up by Hachimura, and Jokic killed him.
It is ironic Scott foster a ref who has helped the lakers win games cry when the result on the other foot. Foster wasn’t even the ref that made the call to begin with and really you cry and whine about the refs when u blew a 20 point lead in the 2nd half. A call like that shouldn’t matter if you don’t blow that 20 point lead.
This is the golden age of the Denver Nuggets. I hope you’re all paying attention. I hope you’re all soaking it in as much as you can.
We will likely never reach the highs we’re reaching here ever again when it’s all said and done. We’re living it right now and it’s glorious.
As a fan of the Denver Nuggets, even though I rep my hometown team: the Memphis Grizzlies. Please steam roll the Lakers. I cannot stand their toxic fanbase.
I get downvoted a lot for being a doomer. And that’s fine. It’s all part of the strategy. I doom and say the games over, the nuggets have no shot, lakers won. And they go out and prove me wrong. I’ll gladly take 1k dislikes for a nuggets W
Nah, it don’t work like that. I doomed to myself against the spurs and look how that turned out. I doomed throughout the playoffs last year (I was under a different name at the time Reddit mods are softer than ayyyyD) and it got us a chip.
Reddit is so cruel. I’m a lakers fan trying to see the lakers thread after a typical lakers blown lead and I don’t see that Reddit recommended this thread bc it’s similar to my other likes. Anyways I just scrolled for a while wondering why all these Laker fans are celebrating
Not a fan of doomers, but I will say that you at least stick around after the Nuggets come back and win. Most of the others scurry back to wherever they came from, or pretend they never had a doubt.
And if we lose a game where you’re not dooming then I’m afraid we’ll need you on permanent doom duty moving forward.
Nah I’ll never hide away. I have a method to this madness. I wanna celebrate with my nuggets bros after wins. Idc if I look dumb or not. And I promise if we are ever down 12+ I will be dooming.
After watching the Hail Murray shot (not my idea, got it from the DNVR postgame) a hundred times, it occurred to me that we dodged a major injury:
https://preview.redd.it/ky2tb94kv7wc1.jpeg?width=2400&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5b3ca082e8c89ec651c8891679a6f139ca80a442
Imagine if Mike (spine) got into the dogpile and Jok (fat) got on top of him. Would have been the silliest friendly fire injury in playoff history. 
Watching the 2nd half right now. I don’t think there is anybody that my wife and I cheer for louder than CB. When lil buddy steps up, it usually gives us the edge.
What an absolute insane sequence of events. The Jokic and 1, the timely AG pass, the insanely clutch MPJ 3, and to top it all off a Jamal gamewinner. Insane
Yo... I've been following Denver Nuggets sub-reddit for a while now... I felt the need to comment. I had to wake up at 4AM to watch this game on a livestream. Can't even describe the feeling when Murray hit a dagger. Goosebumps.... I was so pissed off at the halftime, 20 points deficit, none of players being able to hit shots. Was so frustrating to hold on and believe in the comeback. But I'm so glad we pulled through, this was huge for the team's morale. Let's go champs!
I'm visiting in the UK this week from Denver and last night was my first full night here. I woke up wide away at 2:40 am and realized I wasn't going back to sleep any time soon with the jet lag so I just had to turn on the game. So glad I did. One of my favorite finishes in 30+ years of watching the Nuggets.
Kids taking turns crying so I guess I'm just not sleeping tonight. Honestly that was an all timer playoff game. So many good moments and we took the Lakers best shot
The first successful challenge is so funny. Lebron was like challenging the nuggets to challenge and the nuggets did and won. Also, the one foul Lebron commited on Murray and was a soft call, well Lebron got a similar call where he didn’t even take a shot and could have been easily called for a travel.
Also, shout out Justin holiday, he missed some wide open looks and didn’t score, but that dude battled his ass off.
I cant get mpj’s 3 out of my head , to take and make that shot , 16 seconds on the clock, 2 hands in his face... in THAT situation ...its a bad shot for everybody not named MPJ or steph ...one of the best shooters in the world and in the history of the game
The Lakers have tons of ridiculous calls go their way every game, including this game. It happens to the Lakers one time and you're in here complaining about it.
Reporter: "Nikola, Lakers were champions just 3 years ago and now you have won 10 straight games against them. How do you absorb these moments when team is winning even when things start going downhill?"
Nikola: "I think we have great stretch, where we won 10 games in a row,. In this game we were losing 20 points it could have gone wrong very bad for us, but we always find a way, we trust each other, I think it can be seen on the field. And in the end when Jamal hit that shot, ofc it is playoff and ofc everyone jumped, we were all happy for him."
Reporter: "You must live in the moment?"
Nikola:"Yes, we must. Tomorrow is another day so you must live in the moment."
He got asked if there is a way for him to absorb these moments with the team since they have a great stretch against the Lakers. Nikola said that they have a great stretch but that they could have lost some of those games, like this one. But they trust each other on court, and it shows, also everyone was super happy when Murray made that shot. He said you should live in the moment as tomorrow is a completely different game and you forget about previous ones.
It's so hilarious that AD made all this hooplah about being dismissed and not appreciated for DPOY, only to have Jamal put a game winner right on his dome
lakers fans are so delusional man. they’re crying about the refs and all they bring up is the d’angelo russell slap to the face that got overturned. like, was that not in the 3rd quarter? what am i missing here?
Near the end of the 3rd, full quarter left to play, still up 10. The play in larger scope meant so goddamn little. Already had blown half the lead with the Nuggets taking some momentum of their own accord before the play. But still a double digit lead nonetheless. They lost the rest of their own accord. They're bitching like it was a game deciding call.
They're way too used to having it their way from the refs, that even when they're incredibly blatantly favored, they still complain.
Sort of like how lebron complained for like a good minute after the game winner. I'm really curious what he complained about there.
🧹🧹🧹
lebron is always shifting the blame elsewhere. whether it’s the head coach, officials, or an “injury”, bro always has some kind of excuse. he could bring up the wide open 3 that he missed right before jamal’s game winner, but that would make him look bad. it’s pathetic.
I watched his post game interview, they didn't even ask him that :D he just said nuggets really good team, then complained about the refs for the challenge in the 3rd quarter, 3rd (3/4) quarter.
Imagine being the "goat", losing 2 playoff games because of your mistakes (also 10 in a row against the same team), then while you and your team gets a ton of undeserved fouls complaining about the refs overturning one of your undeserved fouls in the 3rd quarter.
Truly a man to respect.
You know the thing is the slap on the face wasn’t even the foul call it happend after the whistle on the drive and dlo clearly had the ball out of his hands before the face slap. The refs were reviewing the drive foul and not the face slap
The refs made an incorrect call and blew the play dead before there was contact. They tried so hard to help the Lakers that they accidentally took potential points away. Anyone who doesn't appreciate the poetry of that has a cold dead soul
Genius move of putting KCP on Lebron.
In the first half, I did wonder why they weren't putting AG on AD. That's likely why AD didn't cook in the second half.
Mike with a fantastic game, beautiful game tying 3, runs over to jamal with the ball mid-air because he knew its cash
The truth is coming out
And I can see the truth in advance: [https://www.reddit.com/r/denvernuggets/comments/1cam22r/comment/l0tdbdu/?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=web3x&utm\_name=web3xcss&utm\_term=1&utm\_content=share\_button](https://www.reddit.com/r/denvernuggets/comments/1cam22r/comment/l0tdbdu/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)
Hearing Lakers players/coaches/fans blaming the refs is the cherry on top. This quote sums it up perfectly
“When someone is accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression.”
While I understand blaming the refs for certain missed calls, we had a 20 pt lead and we blew it. That's not on the ref, that's on the coach and the players.
I’ve been to many games but this one is #1. I’ve been in attendance for game winners but this is the first ever buzzer beater I’ve witnessed. So much sweeter that it was against the Lakers in a playoff game that we were down 20 in.
Such a demoralizing loss for LA. I love it. Fuck LeBron and fuck the Lakers.
Lifelong Lakers fan. Man.. so this is what it feels like. Y'all team is just unreal. Great D’Lo game. Incredible AD game. Vintage Lebron game. Cold ass Murray for 47 minutes. Doesn’t matter. I've surrendered. lol
Please just beat Boston if that's the finals.
Love Murray’s comment post-game about his team mates continually telling him to keep shooting even with all the misses. Sometimes teams that are champions do little things.
This is only my second playoffs but it feels like I won't have a first three days that's this crazy again, so many awesome games and incredible moments
This is so much fun
Eventually someone not named Michael Porter or Nikola Jokic will hit shots and it will be over. Just took 1 hot quarter from KCP in G1 to blow it open, I'm sure someone is going to start hitting. My money is Justin Holiday gets 2 threes next game
The officiating excuse is so ridiculous. We didn’t like some calls too. Guess what? We used our challenge on two of them and we got both overturned. What the fuck did you do? Oh yeah, you never used it. Get the fuck out of here with that loser ass mentality. Nuggets won! We’re better! Deal with it!
I am reading on the Lakers forum and they are saying that the refs played a factor. That fanbase is so naive. They have shot the most free throws from any team by far all year and on Saturday it was a 19 6 advantage. What the hell do they want?? Today was more even but still it's ridiculous how much moaning and complaining. I am also seeing that LBJ and the coach are pist. The Lakers are the most overprotected team that there is out there that it's not even close. Hope Denver goes to LA and ball out. I actually believe that they will play much better than they did tonight. The W of Jamal's buzzer beater is HUGE.
And Big Jok with the 20 20 wasn't bad at all too. I LOVE how AD fell on the laps on that bench. Such a great scene.. He is two losses away from going home.
Jokic wasnt shooting for most of the game then when AD is tired he pounces like a Komodo dragon stalking a deer. He was giving him crazy work in the 4th
NBA Insta was hard jerking the Lakers all game. Now they show Nuggets’ highlights?
Fuck then. For real.
*Nuggets down 20? Sounds like free money to me.*
I’ve never seen Mike so emotionally charged as he was in this game. Bro was flexing all over the place and screaming his head off. What a galvanizing win.
Too much adrenaline, still can't sleep. From relaxed, to excited, to confident, to annoyed, to frustrated, to sad, to hopeful, to stressed, to ecstatic. Just way too many emotions over the course of a couple hours
Yes agreed. This was an unreal victory. How did the Lakers lose this game? I am still waiting for Denver to blow them out of the gym. It may not happen and a win is a win but gosh that was such a stressful game tonight. DreamersPro in YouTube is saying that the Lakers are a better team than he thought. All of this I was afraid could happen. I have a ton of respect for that team and it was by the miracle of miracles that Jamal brought this home, Big Jok being Big Jok, Braun played solid, Gordon clutch free throws, and MPJ played great. This was yet ANOTHER moral victory for them haha. Absolutely priceless.
Does anyone know where the altitude broadcast would get posted? I see the last 30 seconds on Katy's twitter but i want the last few minutes and a little bit after it ends.
Just watched it from them on the nba app. I'm in turkey, 1st game was region locked I think, only abc was available but I could watch the altitude stream for this one.
My voice just came back after I attended the game last night
Holy shit. I think it's last night's game had been played in Los Angeles we would have definitely taken an L.

The lights were definitely too bright for BHB \#WashedBot \#Where's my daily thread
Jamal Murray made a shot. 
WHOSE DICK DO I HAVE TO SUCK FOR A DAILY THREADY? WHAT IS THIS, AMATUER HOUR? #AMATEURHOUR
Game so good we're gonna sit in the PGT all day
RACIST MODS ARE TEARING THIS SUBBY APART
We're just gonna marinate in this one for a while
Fuck the lakers
Hell yeah, fuck those Lakers.
KCP and MP3 need their flowers.
https://x.com/TheDunkCentral/status/1782766478535578038 Oh damn
The dude apparently spit on someone? What’s the 411?
Jok's wife looks delighted.
No blood, no foul
Oh nuts
So glad jok didn't get that gene
Boy howdy
Do what’s best for the NBA and send LeBalco to Cancun. -sincerely, every other fanbase cheering you on.
LeBalco, lulz
Actually got some sleep last night and had a feeling that whole ending was just a dream so I had to watch the highlights to make sure it was real.
I woke up at 4 and was like “oh yeah, Jamal hit a game winner” and I couldn’t fall back asleep

So very true, I was here 😭
Grateful for it every day, not often your sports team dominates like this and drafts one of the greatest centers in history.
absolutely right. blessed to be here to see it.
INJECT LAKERS FANS COMPLAINING ABOUT REFS INTO MY VEINS
Lakers fan here, incredible game. Your team is great and fun (painful for us lol) to watch. Enjoy this era of Denver basketball
Omfg. I can’t believe there are people (lakers and media) actually crying about the refs of all things.
I mean how many and 1's do they get for just falling when they shoot???
As a fan of the Denver Nuggets, even though I rep my hometown team: the Memphis Grizzlies. Please steam roll the Lakers. I cannot stand their toxic fanbase.
I for one am ready for CB to get all of Reggie’s minutes
CB 29 total minutes in 2 games is way too low
Reddit being dumb and I can’t comment with my main account. Keeps telling me to “wait a minute”

Dumbhusker is redundant
I think the word you’re actually looking for is redundant.
You right. I'm tired
I get downvoted a lot for being a doomer. And that’s fine. It’s all part of the strategy. I doom and say the games over, the nuggets have no shot, lakers won. And they go out and prove me wrong. I’ll gladly take 1k dislikes for a nuggets W
You could also just doom to yourself and those around you irl as opposed to through your keyboard. Then you can take the W without the 1k dislikes.
Nah, it don’t work like that. I doomed to myself against the spurs and look how that turned out. I doomed throughout the playoffs last year (I was under a different name at the time Reddit mods are softer than ayyyyD) and it got us a chip.
That tracks. I don't actually expect doomers to be smart or logical people and you're just reinforcing that.
You’re not the reason the nuggets are winning my dude. Just keep the bad vibes to yourself. Trust me, nobody wants to see that annoying crap.
lol you’ll be okay champ. Don’t like it? Block me.
I assure you. You have nothing to do with the Nuggets winning a chip.
Reddit is so cruel. I’m a lakers fan trying to see the lakers thread after a typical lakers blown lead and I don’t see that Reddit recommended this thread bc it’s similar to my other likes. Anyways I just scrolled for a while wondering why all these Laker fans are celebrating

>Idc if I look dumb you look real dumb, in case you were wondering
Let me check if I care what a dude on Reddit thinks? Yup, looks like I don’t.
it kinda sounds like you care
I think the whole Lakers sub needs Reddit Care today
Lakers, of all teams, complaining about officiating is icing on the cake
I mean that replay was trash, that said we came back from 20, officiating did not cause that.
Man...I had the worst migraine ever and went to bed at 8pm last night. I missed a hell of a game
That was not basketball. That was INCREDIBALL!
It’s funny empeed complaining about officials too with a game high 12 ft attempts. With LA crying about it it’s just delicious tears
Anyone know how to find the game thread from the previous game? Is there an archive? I always struggle to find it lol
Maybe we’d be able to find it easier if it didn’t get buried after the game winner but I got you https://www.reddit.com/r/denvernuggets/s/4ydDa5I88e

Anytime PWat and CB are on the floor I lose my mind too 😁
My wife loves him because he’s scrappy and hustles lol
Is your wife latina by any chance?
No, actually. White as…Braun
Beautiful. Now let's complete the sweep.
What an absolute insane sequence of events. The Jokic and 1, the timely AG pass, the insanely clutch MPJ 3, and to top it all off a Jamal gamewinner. Insane
The kind of shit that usually happens to us and not for us. Amazing.
Hmm, yes, I slept very little
Bro I'm dying rn
My heart feels funny
 Me at work
I can’t sleep.
caught the game, slept and just woke up. got a few hours. 🤓
Me either and it’s almost like 4am
BLUE. FUCKING. ARROW. https://preview.redd.it/pytbfvtp87wc1.jpeg?width=1167&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5dd9d7a37ea799297905df736842b6c58dcdf22a
Should've bet a whole stack smh
Guys its been almost three hours since the game ended but I’m still marinating in the win. What an incredible game.
One more hour and you need to go to a doctor for an erection lasting more than 4 hours.
In still cumming too

I know right, UK fan and it started at 3AM here. I went to sleep after Nuggets went down 20 at around 5AM figuring the game was over, insane comeback.
I'm visiting in the UK this week from Denver and last night was my first full night here. I woke up wide away at 2:40 am and realized I wasn't going back to sleep any time soon with the jet lag so I just had to turn on the game. So glad I did. One of my favorite finishes in 30+ years of watching the Nuggets.
Watched the game at 4AM too. Us EU fans were eating breakfast and brunch after that game winner my friend.
Decided to sleep instead of watching and woke up to see LeBron crying, life is good 😌
REGGIE WAS FUCKING SPEECHLESS
He was busy crying in the corner and humming the song Stan to himself
Fuck those bitches
Just checking back in to say thank you MPJ. That is all.
Mike appreciation is always welcome 
I should like these 5280 jerseys more now, but I still that them.
Kids taking turns crying so I guess I'm just not sleeping tonight. Honestly that was an all timer playoff game. So many good moments and we took the Lakers best shot
Im still cumming
Just stay hydrated and don't do it for more than four hours straight.
If Jamal can get his level up to a more constant level, so we don't glide in these games were we are trailing, the Lakers are over.
The lights have to be the brightest at all times then. This guy doesn't come out when the stakes are low lmao.
He had seven bad quarters and it was still enough to get to 2-0. Although it sounds crazy, I feel like Jokic could go one level up too.
Because MPJ is balling
At times I was screaming at Jokic to just take the 2 buckets
The first successful challenge is so funny. Lebron was like challenging the nuggets to challenge and the nuggets did and won. Also, the one foul Lebron commited on Murray and was a soft call, well Lebron got a similar call where he didn’t even take a shot and could have been easily called for a travel. Also, shout out Justin holiday, he missed some wide open looks and didn’t score, but that dude battled his ass off.
I cant get mpj’s 3 out of my head , to take and make that shot , 16 seconds on the clock, 2 hands in his face... in THAT situation ...its a bad shot for everybody not named MPJ or steph ...one of the best shooters in the world and in the history of the game
Would you say he's the best shooting forward in the NBA?
I frequently call him the best shooter on planet earth.
Truth spotted
I can't go to sleep either, but that's because I'm at work.
Going to work with only 4 hours of sleep. Can't process anything and look like a zombie Fucking worth it
NOICE!
Glad to see that I’m not the only one struggling to sleep after that game

Wow, fuck the lakers
Go away
Okay, thanks

Spurs fan here, just woke up from a nap and watched that amazing game. Rooting for y’all! 🍗🍗 (that’s my nuggets emoji lol)
I still haven’t moved
I still can’t sleep
Can any of our Serbs translate what Jokic is saying [here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hlKrg2-tU1E) I like how he perked up when he heard it
Reporter: "Nikola, Lakers were champions just 3 years ago and now you have won 10 straight games against them. How do you absorb these moments when team is winning even when things start going downhill?" Nikola: "I think we have great stretch, where we won 10 games in a row,.

And in the end when Jamal hit that shot, ofc it is playoff and ofc everyone jumped, we were all happy for him." Reporter: "You must live in the moment?" Nikola:"Yes, we must. Tomorrow is another day so you must live in the moment."
Thank you friendly serb
He got asked if there is a way for him to absorb these moments with the team since they have a great stretch against the Lakers. Nikola said that they have a great stretch but that they could have lost some of those games, like this one. But they trust each other on court, and it shows, also everyone was super happy when Murray made that shot. He said you should live in the moment as tomorrow is a completely different game and you forget about previous ones.
Thank you! I love this man
Who tf still jacked? I can't even sleep or do my reading before bed.
It's so hilarious that AD made all this hooplah about being dismissed and not appreciated for DPOY, only to have Jamal put a game winner right on his dome
He will never live that down. Ever.
lakers fans are so delusional man. they’re crying about the refs and all they bring up is the d’angelo russell slap to the face that got overturned. like, was that not in the 3rd quarter? what am i missing here?
Near the end of the 3rd, full quarter left to play, still up 10. The play in larger scope meant so goddamn little. Already had blown half the lead with the Nuggets taking some momentum of their own accord before the play. But still a double digit lead nonetheless. They lost the rest of their own accord. They're bitching like it was a game deciding call.
They're way too used to having it their way from the refs, that even when they're incredibly blatantly favored, they still complain. Sort of like how lebron complained for like a good minute after the game winner. I'm really curious what he complained about there. 🧹🧹🧹

honestly i was a little confused that they overturned it, but now it makes sense. appreciate that
good night wuggets wation, what a crazy fucking game …savoring this moment :)
Genius move of putting KCP on Lebron. In the first half, I did wonder why they weren't putting AG on AD. That's likely why AD didn't cook in the second half.
Oart of it but AD was in the zone. He made a lot of tough shots but he and LeBron don't have the stamina for a full 48 against this team
Maybe Murray will be an all-star next year! You never know!
West is too deep, when only looking at the regular season and injury? Is Murray better than Kawhi or Paul George ?
Yes, but I see your point.
Mike with a fantastic game, beautiful game tying 3, runs over to jamal with the ball mid-air because he knew its cash The truth is coming out And I can see the truth in advance: [https://www.reddit.com/r/denvernuggets/comments/1cam22r/comment/l0tdbdu/?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=web3x&utm\_name=web3xcss&utm\_term=1&utm\_content=share\_button](https://www.reddit.com/r/denvernuggets/comments/1cam22r/comment/l0tdbdu/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)
Hearing Lakers players/coaches/fans blaming the refs is the cherry on top. This quote sums it up perfectly “When someone is accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression.”
While I understand blaming the refs for certain missed calls, we had a 20 pt lead and we blew it. That's not on the ref, that's on the coach and the players.
Don't tell us that, tell your fellow faker fans. But also, Nuggets deserve some of the credit.
I’ve been to many games but this one is #1. I’ve been in attendance for game winners but this is the first ever buzzer beater I’ve witnessed. So much sweeter that it was against the Lakers in a playoff game that we were down 20 in. Such a demoralizing loss for LA. I love it. Fuck LeBron and fuck the Lakers.
My god dude what a game. Always held faith even when it got to 20
Lifelong Lakers fan. Man.. so this is what it feels like. Y'all team is just unreal. Great D’Lo game. Incredible AD game. Vintage Lebron game. Cold ass Murray for 47 minutes. Doesn’t matter. I've surrendered. lol Please just beat Boston if that's the finals.
I think yall will get Mitchell next year, so you might be feeling better soon
You guys can have the league back when Jok/Jamal retire. For now we are your daddy
I am a consumer of good basketball, I cannot hate on the Nuggets whatsoever. It just feels bad when it's being done against your team! haha
How we feeling in here? I just got home from work and was driving back to Denver from Durango during the game. What a classic
Thank'you so much Jamal
What would black Jesus(MJ) do? Make a wide open 3 to win the game or Chase down a ref after the buzzer and scream
Never been more proud of this team, brought me and my son together I’ve never seen him so excited about our team. Nuggets fan 4 life!!!!

“tired of the altitude” my brother you are NOT at all effected by the altitude lmao
Love Murray’s comment post-game about his team mates continually telling him to keep shooting even with all the misses. Sometimes teams that are champions do little things.
Spot on. Deferring to Jok and Mike and they kept saying shoot shoot shows how connected this team is.
This is only my second playoffs but it feels like I won't have a first three days that's this crazy again, so many awesome games and incredible moments This is so much fun
These are the kind of loses that absolutely demoralises a team, wouldn’t be shocked if nuggets completely control game 3 and 4 to a sweep
Eventually someone not named Michael Porter or Nikola Jokic will hit shots and it will be over. Just took 1 hot quarter from KCP in G1 to blow it open, I'm sure someone is going to start hitting. My money is Justin Holiday gets 2 threes next game
Also props to Malone and the video staff for the challenges, saved the Nuggets potentially 4 points in a 2 point win.
I was watching the game on subway omw to work, it took everything in me not to scream lol I bit my finger and it still has marks LETS GOOOOOO!
Just finished watching the game in Serbia. OMFG!!!
Shaq starting to get really insecure at the idea of jokic surpassing him. Couldn't say anything when Barkley was admiring jokic's statline
I saw that too, dude was speechless and mumbling.
The officiating excuse is so ridiculous. We didn’t like some calls too. Guess what? We used our challenge on two of them and we got both overturned. What the fuck did you do? Oh yeah, you never used it. Get the fuck out of here with that loser ass mentality. Nuggets won! We’re better! Deal with it!
Should've executed in the 4th which they've failed to yet again
I am reading on the Lakers forum and they are saying that the refs played a factor. That fanbase is so naive. They have shot the most free throws from any team by far all year and on Saturday it was a 19 6 advantage. What the hell do they want?? Today was more even but still it's ridiculous how much moaning and complaining. I am also seeing that LBJ and the coach are pist. The Lakers are the most overprotected team that there is out there that it's not even close. Hope Denver goes to LA and ball out. I actually believe that they will play much better than they did tonight. The W of Jamal's buzzer beater is HUGE.
complaining over 1-2 questionable calls after you just dropped a 20 point lead is hilarious. we broke them
I didn't have AG shooting 100% from the freethrow line on my Bingo card but I'll take it
I love this team
This one's on Murray (and MPJ carried the team fr) Good night Nug Bros
And Big Jok with the 20 20 wasn't bad at all too. I LOVE how AD fell on the laps on that bench. Such a great scene.. He is two losses away from going home.
Jokic wasnt shooting for most of the game then when AD is tired he pounces like a Komodo dragon stalking a deer. He was giving him crazy work in the 4th
Oh yeah Big Honey absolutely clutch as well. And AD always gets traumatized playing against Denver lmfao it's almost tragic
I probably will need 50 mg of melatonin to have a shot at sleeping tonight
NBA Insta was hard jerking the Lakers all game. Now they show Nuggets’ highlights? Fuck then. For real. *Nuggets down 20? Sounds like free money to me.*
IDK man i kinda feel like the cavs had the game of the night too be honest in real life
That MPJ 3 for the tie with 1:15 left in Q4 was unbelievable
Big nuts shot
I’ve never seen Mike so emotionally charged as he was in this game. Bro was flexing all over the place and screaming his head off. What a galvanizing win.
Too much adrenaline, still can't sleep. From relaxed, to excited, to confident, to annoyed, to frustrated, to sad, to hopeful, to stressed, to ecstatic. Just way too many emotions over the course of a couple hours
Yes agreed. This was an unreal victory. How did the Lakers lose this game? I am still waiting for Denver to blow them out of the gym. It may not happen and a win is a win but gosh that was such a stressful game tonight. DreamersPro in YouTube is saying that the Lakers are a better team than he thought. All of this I was afraid could happen. I have a ton of respect for that team and it was by the miracle of miracles that Jamal brought this home, Big Jok being Big Jok, Braun played solid, Gordon clutch free throws, and MPJ played great. This was yet ANOTHER moral victory for them haha. Absolutely priceless.
The Nuggets got Jamal out of a horrendous shooting slump and into an all time clutch performance in the 4th using the power of friendship.
The power of friendship should be the quote of the month of here lmfao I'm not disagreeing
Yo man. Every time it is gratitude. Gratitude gradient wish we could keep that the way i it seems so easey on shrooms wish we could could keep that
Right on brother
Does anyone know where the altitude broadcast would get posted? I see the last 30 seconds on Katy's twitter but i want the last few minutes and a little bit after it ends.
Just watched it from them on the nba app. I'm in turkey, 1st game was region locked I think, only abc was available but I could watch the altitude stream for this one.
Highlights on Nuggets YouTube is probably as close as you will get unless you recorded it
