The Official NBA Season Thread: NBA Cup Begins | Embiid Debut | Klay Return

Difference between tonight and prior 3 games is that Lakers got production from DZB and Reaves.

They will need more of the same from them and IT would help if Cornerstone showed up too.
All that, but also no Nugget had a good game except Jokic.

MPJ was ok, but Gordon, Murray, KCP and the bench were all sub-par.
 
No scoring-drought for the lakers was the biggest difference

EYE joked about IT but them playing the Nuggets almost even in the 3rd was the difference this game.

The 3rd has been bugaboo for the Lakers all season.

Great close in the 4th by LeVETO tonight
 
All the pressure is on the Suns to not get swept now.
They’re going to win too if they give any effort at all.

And I say that because the talent disparity is not great enough that they should get swept and it’s hard to beat any team 4 games in a row.

Big shots aside in game two, Murray been stinky this series.

Aside from the heroics been Canadian D'Lo tbh.

He's gonna have to be better with those defenders Minny has next series.

Denver hit a 3 and Lebron turned it over for an easy KCP layup cuts it to 10. Previous 3 games these cats panic and settle for a 3 or Bron iso iso iso bad shot. Instead, Ham calls a timeout and Bron backs down the smaller defender and either goes up strong hands off to AD in the paint.

DZB hit timely shots tonight too. Big ups to him.
