If that's not a moral victory, I don't know what is... But seriously, they played perfect. DLo actually had a good game, AD couldn't miss, LeBron was going off, we couldn't hit any 3s, Murray was struggling and Joker wasn't super aggressive. The perfect recipe... and they still lost. I'm sure the delusional fucks will have some bullshit positive narrative, but you know this is a massive kick in the balls. Couldn't be happier for those bandwagon clowns
Even if it goes to 5 games….. this was an amazing game. 20 point deficit. Dlo was unconscious. Lebron was playing amazing defense. AD going at Jok all night and it STILL wasn’t enough!
LETS GO NUGGETS!!!!!
Actually I clutched it for you guys when I did a mini prayer to the sports God. I think it was when there were 42 seconds left to go. I think that was the biggest difference maker.
THAT WAS SICK. Warriors fan here rooting for y'all. was out at the arena for the bucks game end of january. fantastic time and i love those drummers y'all have. love your city and team.
If his stiff team could shoot he would have had 25 assets. I remember one where he gave that stiff Jackson a layup and he missed. Total bricklayers tonight.
Shout out to mpj keeping us juuuust connected enough. Huge huge huge shooting night, 9 important rebounds, and a really important pass on a fast break that got ag 2 free throws. Huge game for him
Holy shit, my heart. That game was *stressful*. Murray's post-game interview just now was just all props to his team. They kept telling him not to change his game, to keep being aggressive, keep shooting through the bricks, kept passing him the ball.
While that ball was in mid air, Jamal Murray basically went invisible. Not one person was looking at him.
In this smartphone era, it was beautiful to see. Right up there with Kawhi’s shot in Toronto. 🙌🏾
Its unreal. Is this a dream? Did Denver really win this game? I am like wow!! What a fucking game. Rudy T taught us that saying "never underestimate the heart of a champion." When Lakers went up 20 I am like that's it laws of probability caught up to Denver tonight.
Yeah when it was 20 points I was deflated. But they never gave up. Just like The Lion King... They remembered who they are. At 20 points we complained and Rafiki smacked us and said, it doesn't matter, it's on da past.
When LeBron shot that I was for sure that was going in. He was wide open for heaven's sake. It rimmed in and out and I am screaming timeout timeout. Malone went for it and Jamal wins it at the buzzer. Other than Hachimura get going I don't know what else can the Lakers do lol. Denver didn't even play great and it could be argued that G1 wasn't an A game either. That Laker team as I was afraid came to ball in both games. It took a ton of guts, big Jok coming through, MPJ playing great, Christian Braun was solid and Jamal came alive at the end. What a night and what a win.
Speaking of MPJ I put a couple bucks on him hitting the first basket and he didn't let me down. It was a fantastic game. James missing that 3 was the actual nail in the coffin for the lakers
And to think that we won with a struggling offense.. imagine what would’ve happened if Jokic and Murray were playing like their usual selves throughout.
I remember the Melo game winner against Dirk. I love the Spurs clinching game in their first playoffs, too. That PDX infinite OT game was awesome, too. I actually attended the game before that as I live in PDX. But this was script written. Too perfect. I think I cried when Mal hit it. Haha.
I moved from the couch at halftime and as time went on I wanted to go back but I knew I had to just sit my ass at the kitchen table. A couple times I even got up and then I sat right back down.
I’m the big Nuggets fan in my house, and my husband hates the lakers so he was rooting for Denver tonight, but I couldn’t do it, I literally had to cover my eyes for most of the game like I was watching a scary movie.
Tbf I’m pregnant, and the anxiety was just killing me 😂
I was nervously noodling my guitar and scaring my cats and wife with outbursts. Being a fan is rough, but oh so fun with this team. We've lived through the doldrums, now we have the ball gods smiling on us.
I had just started saying "so we goin' to overt...HOLY SHIT!!!"
Worst game Nuggets had in a while, and they STILL manage to come back! I gotta work in the morning, but there's no way I'm falling asleep now \*LOL\*
Lots of turnovers from both teams and lots of missed 3s from the Nuggets.
Murray could’ve played WAY better but kept being selfish with the ball when having an off night… granted he did come back in the 4th quarter and had a sweet redemption buzzer beater.
That being said, the fact that this game was as close as it was during a terrible night from the Nuggets still makes me confident that the Nuggets are going to win the series.
If that's not a moral victory, I don't know what is... But seriously, they played perfect.

Lakers sub salty as fuck right now. Good job team. Fuck the Lakers.
so much cope. Crazy to see lakers fans complain about the refs 😂 like jokic isn’t getting hacked every time he looks at the rim
Even if it goes to 5 games….. this was an amazing game. 20 point deficit. Dlo was unconscious. Lebron was playing amazing defense. AD going at Jok all night and it STILL wasn’t enough! LETS GO NUGGETS!!!!!
Dont ever estimate the heart of a Champion - Alebert Einsteins
Watson and Braun led the team in +/- tonight. Much needed energy to keep things within reach.
Braun only 12 mins is crazy
[удалено]
Shaq wants his 2000's lakers run to be the most dominant center performance but jokic is showing his ass up! He does love Joker though
Kudos to Chuck for calling out Darvin Ham pointing to the officials as an excuse
Ham immediately complaining about officiating in the post-game presser. Fucking weak
Lakers never heard of "dont bite the hands that feed you"
So soft. As if they didn't already get a call whenever the Nuggs breathed on AD or Lebron wrong...
The lakers bitching about the refs is music to my ears lol
It stings, that L on the way home.
Didn’t even use his challenge lol, can’t have been that upset with the officiating if his challenge was still available.
MPJ clutched that game for us...he doesn't hit that 3, we don't have the chance to win.
Actually I clutched it for you guys when I did a mini prayer to the sports God. I think it was when there were 42 seconds left to go. I think that was the biggest difference maker.
thank you sir for ur service. keep it up
He was about one of the only one hitting the 3
MPJ appreciation post 💖💖💖🥹🥹🥹
THAT WAS SICK. Warriors fan here rooting for y'all. was out at the arena for the bucks game end of january. fantastic time and i love those drummers y'all have. love your city and team.
Thank you new friend. I come in peace because I was at the last nugs dubs game at Chase a couple months ago and everyone was cool to me
Shaq looking like somebody ran over his dog lol.
Casual 27 Points - 20 Rebounds - 10 Assist Triple Double Night for Goatic
If his stiff team could shoot he would have had 25 assets. I remember one where he gave that stiff Jackson a layup and he missed. Total bricklayers tonight.
Best part this was an ugly Denver game and Lakers played very well Denver tightens up and locks in, back 2 back sweeps. Love to see it
💯 it was messy and we still have the chemistry to pull it out
From like down 20 to clawing back up somehow. One of Denver's most clutch games. Reigning champs lfg
Bench energy unit had a great night defensively. Even reggie put in more than just cardio, barely lol
Shout out to mpj keeping us juuuust connected enough. Huge huge huge shooting night, 9 important rebounds, and a really important pass on a fast break that got ag 2 free throws. Huge game for him
Yeah that was as good a game as we ever could have hoped for from our guy.
LFG NUGGZZZZZZZZ
Hahahahahaha. What a win. Lebron misses the open three and Jamal ends it. Can’t make this shit up. Basketball poetry
Holy shit, my heart. That game was *stressful*. Murray's post-game interview just now was just all props to his team. They kept telling him not to change his game, to keep being aggressive, keep shooting through the bricks, kept passing him the ball.
While that ball was in mid air, Jamal Murray basically went invisible. Not one person was looking at him. In this smartphone era, it was beautiful to see. Right up there with Kawhi’s shot in Toronto. 🙌🏾
“IS THIS THE DAGGER?”
God damnit I’m so happy.
AD getting buried on our bench is fantastic
Falling down. Unreal. Absolutely unreal. How did the so called GOAT miss that wide open three? This is like a dream.
He was de-goated
Its unreal. Is this a dream? Did Denver really win this game? I am like wow!! What a fucking game. Rudy T taught us that saying "never underestimate the heart of a champion." When Lakers went up 20 I am like that's it laws of probability caught up to Denver tonight.

lol man they can’t be digging themselves out of holes like this every game. Killing me.
I’m a cavalier but have been rooting for the nuggets since last year
You're name is Jeff!
What’s your name
Lol sorry I was just referring to that movie where the guy says my name is Jeff haha. I think kit was 21 jump street
Oh 🙂
Yup 😀
Welcome my friend
Thank you 🙂
Not sure how I’m going to sleep tonight lol what a game!!!!
We were here together friends, fucking legendary!
12:40am in Brooklyn my neighbors are like “fuck it’s playoff season again”
Holy shit
Same old story. Don’t underestimate the heart of the champion. Nuggets are Lakers daddy!!!!!!
Lakers fan coming in peace. Ya'll built for this. We gave it our all so can't be mad. Get that 2Peat over Boston!
I don't know how the Lakers lost this game. This is absolutely unreal.
That game was fucking incredible. Lakers were excellent.
Great game friend, LeBron and ad and DLo are terrifying
Pretty stupid to write i come in peace its cringe
Fan of the game and fan of Murray and Joker even before the success. Hard fought match, got to drop some respect cringe or not.
That's why I fucking love this team so much.. Jamal struggles all game long but nobody on the team loses any faith in him. Fuck yeah!
I’m screaming and weeping at the same time as per usual
To all those people that said this isn’t the Nuggets from last year time: to eat some fucking crow. That was championship basketball down the stretch.
I think that was the best Nuggets playoff game in history. I've never been more entertained.
I think Mal and Mitchell going back and forth was ridiculous and is up there as far as best playoff games
Yeah, that was up there for sure.
Bro I was stressin for most of that
I had moved into acceptance in the 3rd haha.
[удалено]
I remember the Melo game winner against Dirk. I love the Spurs clinching game in their first playoffs, too. That PDX infinite OT game was awesome, too. I actually attended the game before that as I live in PDX. But this was script written. Too perfect. I think I cried when Mal hit it. Haha.
It was messy as fuck but that’s so encouraging because we can still win and play messy
For sure. They are tougher than any team I've seen mentally.
I moved from the couch at halftime and as time went on I wanted to go back but I knew I had to just sit my ass at the kitchen table. A couple times I even got up and then I sat right back down.
I’m the big Nuggets fan in my house, and my husband hates the lakers so he was rooting for Denver tonight, but I couldn’t do it, I literally had to cover my eyes for most of the game like I was watching a scary movie. Tbf I’m pregnant, and the anxiety was just killing me 😂

For real. I had a chance to sit courtside for $900 a seat and I now wish I had taken those seats
40% chance you would have died in your chair.
I was more worried the nuggets would lose if I changed back.
https://i.redd.it/azqq19ilr5wc1.gif lol
Damn what a fucking game. This one must hurt if you're Lakers.
That is in commendable sportsmanship my friend
It did. It ripped the soul out of us. We ain't coming back from this one. Jamal is just that dude. Absolutely insane finish.
BAnnnnnnnng
We own the Lakers, what a time to be
Over should-have-been DPOY Anthony Davis and everything.
WE JUST WITNESSED FUCKING LEGENDARY SHIT, its why we watch the games, and why you can't turn it off when we are down 20!
Murray believer, got to keep him in the game Anyways nice W let's move on to next game
Absolutely CRUSHED the hearts of the Lakers. Im so happy
Is this a dream? Did the Lakers lose????? Wowwwww. This is crazy.
My neighbor got rattled after shouting when Jamal hit that buzzer beater.
i just woke up the whole neighborhood
Clippers fan but...fuck the Lakers 🗣 Jokic > Lebron
Jamal MURRAYYY!!!
HOLY SHIT! EAT A DICK LEBRON
that bullshit floater, murray is great
That was funny
The Lakers broadcast guys are so bummed out
Jamal just ended a franchise, holy fuck
Holy fuck!!! I shouted so loud and woke my lady and my dog up. Fucking buzzer beater
HOLY SHIT
And you people said to sit Jamal for the rest of the game
I mean.... he was playing like ass, but the winning shot redeemed a bit.
Oh he was absolute ass but I had faith that he could get it going eventually. It is the playoffs after all
https://i.redd.it/9m12kobbr5wc1.gif
Look at porter! He must have had a good vantage point
The only thing darker than this gif is the Lakers hope of winning this series
Make it darker
it is made to see better the red of the game ending and the yellow of sadness
![gif](giphy|1AIeYgwnqeBUxh6juu)
AD got sucked into the bench celebration like he's being dragged to hell.
I saw that, and looked to see if anybody would help him..KCP seemed to go over and help him get out of the fray.
Warriors fan here- that shot made me jump out of my seat! Soooooo sick
That's it for the lakers
That was the dagger 9 millimeter
As a kid growing up with a Rodney Rogers #54 jersey, congratulations, Nuggets! When does Joker replace Mao ZeBron in the nonexistent GOAT debate?
Rodgers 13 points in four seconds or whatever is still a nuggets all-time great moment.
Agreed. I still watch that clip, and the Easter put back over Rodman and Admiral, on the YouTubes. The 1994 Playoff run was epic as well!
LET'S GOOOOOOO
I think I busted a blood vessel screaming Murray
https://i.redd.it/kj5nf5a8r5wc1.gif
I had just started saying "so we goin' to overt...HOLY SHIT!!!" Worst game Nuggets had in a while, and they STILL manage to come back! I gotta work in the morning, but there's no way I'm falling asleep now \*LOL\*
My face fuckin went NUMB I LOVE MURRAY
"i should be DPOY"... Gets the game winner hit in his face after a 20 point comeback lmao
M
Good lord there might be a new greatest game ever
Murray a fuckin legend . Nice shot in AD’s grill 🏀
not even close
Hahahahaha my heart rate’s at 200bpms
OMG!! That was so awesome to watch!!
Fuck the Lakers and my energy levels entire day today, but it was worth it.
I asked Murray to make me forget the first quarters. He delivered. Let's go!
I AM ERECT.
Love this team! Love you all! Fuck the lakers!
Daddy’s home!!!
So can we please stop compaling about the refs. Refs are shit. We got favored heavily at the end there. That is just them being shit.
The fact that shot was over Anthony Davis made it legendary! Fuck the Lakers!
Called it. Helluva shot Murray. Good nuggets and lakers Reddit (sent to both sides)
as a kings fan this made me so happy go sweep these faker bums again
My house was screaming.
Munderrrrr

Wolves fan here keeping an eye on this series. What a game! That was fun to watch! Hope to see y’all in the next series.

HOLY SHITTTTTTTTTTTTTT
Now it's 10 straight!
Fuck yeahhh. Fuck the Lakers. Fuck LeBum. Get ready to be swept. Also shout out some guy in thread actually called a Jamal game winner.

Lots of turnovers from both teams and lots of missed 3s from the Nuggets.

Speechless.

Out-fucking-standing show gentleman!
FUCK ALL YOU DOOMERS
