No moral victories in Lalaland.

Good game Denver. Onto the next one

 

[T0INE]

he went full sprint down court on that gordon alley oop

This was a key turning point.

4 point swing.

Then Lebby settling for the 3 when he was attacking and abusing the rim.

The LeBron 3’s…

Like bro…

That would drive me nuts.

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Lakers better win game 2 or its a wrapito

Not really

Seriously though....Nuggets melted. I cant see how LA doesnt make it look easy next game.

 

[jpzx]

My hockey-ish friend texted me and asked what was the Lakers-Nuggets play

I said to buy a half a point

He took Nuggets -6 after buying it down from -6.5

This ain't little league no moral victories

Lakers wasted all that energy to come back and still lost. Advantage Nuggets.

 

[Olympus]

Nuggets caved, but didn’t collapse. Still, concerning for them. Not only that, but the Lakers who were down 16-20 since the half were able to trade buckets and stay in the game until they could make a run.

I’m betting the Lakers take G2

Thank You. My first night in here and these Laker fans in here are like the ones I know. No moral victory or momentum just because they came back from a big deficit and lost

gassed. tired players stop being aggressive and take jumpshots instead

 

[T0INE]

Highly sports entertaining game.

Need 6 more of these.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Lakers can't get more than a 2-0 run

Care to wager

 

[ill steelo]

I’m leaning Lakers because I don’t trust Jamal Murray to show up 4 out of 7.

Nothing in this game changed my mind.

 

[Nipsey3000]

good game.

i think i've seen the first player score 40 and somehow still got his *$$ whipped.

 

[Coupé It]

Think the home teams take the first 4…

Then it gets crazy….

ALA recruiting first timers. They down bad.

If that's how you wanna look at it.

 

[htg designs]

15 to 5 off rebounds. Yet Lakers had a chance to win

Wasted energy? What did you want them to do? Let the Nuggets rain down 40 on them? Then you’d say Lakers got no fight in them.

 

[jpzx]

The Lakers stuck around, I am very interested to see what they start out with entering the second game…

 

[HIM]

Hate to break it to you but Lakers weren't +17 they were +6.5 so they're losing this point spread by 10.5.
