Lakers threw a wrench in our half court offense and defended us as well they could and still lost.
you have to wonder if Danny Glover's catchphrase from Lethal Weapon is starting to enter their minds.

We win. Davis and Lebron both with 40 mins. This could not have gone better. Man I like your optimism

Jokic needs to stop disappearing in the 4th. Murray won us that game single handedly! I don't disagree I'd like him to be a little more efficient in 4th but LAL is loading up the paint and officials are swallowing whistle. He still made some good reads getting guys open 3s and he's playing great d and offensive rebounding

Father time is starting to catch up with LeBron James. He doesn't dunk over people as much anymore in even a slightly contested lane but his strength and speed are more than enough to absorb the contact and lay it in.
LeBron from 2010 would have dunked all of those drives to the basket.
Don't get me wrong, he is still an athletic marvel but the clock is certainly ticking louder.

Lakers figured us out. They found a lot of counters tonight… lololol Won't hear anything about AD/LeBron getting figured out tho lmao that won't be the national narrative. Yet a bad quarter .. or really a stretch of a couple minutes changed the entire conversation around a W in the media. Sitting Murray/AG etc. How the Lakers had the momentum. Lots of basketball left to be played but L.A controlling the game and the Nuggets laying an egg for a huge portion of the game only to just come back and decide to take it is hilarious after everything that was said by most of the media.

Oh. We played as best we could and barely won.
But Reaves banking threes. Normal stuff you can count on

Sports media will at least be slightly more bearable with this win but still unbearable in the sense that they will come up with every excuse in the book for the Lakers. Imagine if the Lakers had won, they would be crowning them as champs right about now.

Is CB out of rotation now? In his 4:30, it seemed the moment was too big for him. He didn’t play second half.
I hope Malone doesn’t give up on CB. We will need his defense and winning plays in future games.

We will need his defense and winning plays in future games. He's playing tight. I think if he hits a couple threes it will do wonders for both his individual game and our bench offense in general.

23 points, 17 rebounds, 12 assists, 3 steals for Jokic and Jamal completely outshined him.
Live it up, Nugs fans.

It says even more than he's both able to recognize when Jamal is carrying the whole team on his back and also willing to jump right onto it with the rest of the guys. He's completely without ego.
