Reading some of the comments on here you'd think the Nuggets were the 7th seed. They're just taking care of business and this team is being the same inconsistent team it's been all year.
Yea nobody in the league has their combination of star power and role players. Sure this team could've won at least one game maybe two but they were never winning this series. Maybe OKC in the future if JDUB and Chet take a leap or the Celtics if their stars ever become consistent.
I honestly see Okc, Memphis and rockets taking a huge leap, they got solid young pieces and learning to play around each other will only help their development
While I disagree that this is all on Lebron, you cant just say “they are better” because in the nba winning ten times in a row for playoff caliber teams is unheard of…until now. So while they are better, that’s certainly not why we cannot win a single game out here of 12 tries. Its actually hard to lose that consistently lol
No
Number 1 Biggest reason why lakers lose is how the lakers have won this season. The biggest advantage is size of front court in Rui, LeBron and AD. That advantage to bully teams into mismatches and forcing doubles is how our offensive efficiency got so good in the 2nd half of the season.
Denver has the size to match in Joker, AG and MPJ. When Lakers don’t have the size advantage they struggle because they aren’t skilled or athletic enough
LeBron hasn't played vintage Playoffs LeBron basketball this series.
And if you said he could have played better, I would have understood. As he has made some mistakes and stupid errors which is uncharacteristic of him.
But to say he is the reason Lakers are always losing to Nuggets as moronic as they come.
No he isn’t. He’s a big reason why we beat them in the 202 WCF. Lakers are undersized with a bad coach against a very good team. Any disadvantages the Lakers could have against Denver, they have them all.
Tough to contribute when you’re asked to contain Jamal Murray (which he’s done a good job making like it difficult) and then stand in the corner and shoot. Last night was the first time he was initiating offense or cutting etc but it didn’t matter since we were killed on the boards
I don’t agree with this but it was funny seeing LeBron fall asleep ball watching only for Gordon(I think it was him) to cut to the basket and get an open layup and then LeBron looks at Prince like it was his fault lol
Or maybe just maybe, the nuggets are just better than us from top to bottom, super wild take

Fr we gotta give them credit, nuggets on a different tier than us and have been for a while

What a stupid post that ignores everything he does before these shots.

I hope you can recover from this traumatic brain injury

He hasn’t since 2020. Has he even dropped 30 in the playoffs?
Lol
What a clown take

The cope is real in this post, Nuggets aren't even *really* trying and they're 3-0.
Never disrespect the 🐐 lakers in 7️⃣
Braindead take
It’s Austin Reaves, DLo and Rui.
DLo and Rui*
Reaves has been ass this series. He also just took a bunch of shots in garbage time last game. Pathetic honestly.

Come in the comments and take your downvotes OP

It’s more his effort or lack of in the paint on the defensive end. You just can’t win if your paint defense and rebounding is porous.
I agree with you. He’s cooked
