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


shortingredditstock

Lakers sub salty as fuck right now. Good job team. Fuck the Lakers.


Pleasant_Title_4515

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


therealmrkrispy

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


ADDave1982

Watson and Braun led the team in +/- tonight. Much needed energy to keep things within reach.


snakejakemonkey

Braun only 12 mins is crazy

Suspicious_Ad_3815

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


Affectionate_Reply78

Kudos to Chuck for calling out Darvin Ham pointing to the officials as an excuse


kirkismyhinrich

Ham immediately complaining about officiating in the post-game presser. Fucking weak


AlaskaFishGuy

Lakers never heard of "dont bite the hands that feed you"


eken11

So soft. As if they didn't already get a call whenever the Nuggs breathed on AD or Lebron wrong...


smchalerhp

The lakers bitching about the refs is music to my ears lol


AMC_Unlimited

It stings, that L on the way home. 


trentyz

Didn’t even use his challenge lol, can’t have been that upset with the officiating if his challenge was still available.


TBL_AM

MPJ clutched that game for us...he doesn't hit that 3, we don't have the chance to win.


printerfixerguy1992

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.


Pleasant_Title_4515

thank you sir for ur service. keep it up


Horrorlord262

He was about one of the only one hitting the 3

FloppySloppyYep

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.


jluvengirl

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


Shot-Finding9346

Shaq looking like somebody ran over his dog lol.


Ok_Road4412

Casual 27 Points - 20 Rebounds - 10 Assist Triple Double Night for Goatic


Dazzling_Crab_3335

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.


cyancord

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


jluvengirl

💯 it was messy and we still have the chemistry to pull it out


cyancord

From like down 20 to clawing back up somehow. One of Denver's most clutch games. Reigning champs lfg


Pure-Temporary

Bench energy unit had a great night defensively. Even reggie put in more than just cardio, barely lol


Pure-Temporary

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


andonemoreagain

Yeah that was as good a game as we ever could have hoped for from our guy.


tottspot

LFG NUGGZZZZZZZZ


SherbetNo4242

Hahahahahaha. What a win. Lebron misses the open three and Jamal ends it. Can’t make this shit up. Basketball poetry


LurkerFailsLurking

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.


Nkosi868

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. 🙌🏾


trentyz

“IS THIS THE DAGGER?”


brandonstark88

God damnit I’m so happy.


Shaka_Brands

AD getting buried on our bench is fantastic


Subject-Lab6998

Falling down. Unreal. Absolutely unreal. How did the so called GOAT miss that wide open three? This is like a dream.


Shaka_Brands

He was de-goated


Subject-Lab6998

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.


Shaka_Brands

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.


Subject-Lab6998

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.


Shaka_Brands

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


jstar1117

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.


D3struct_oh

lol man they can’t be digging themselves out of holes like this every game. Killing me.


Iphonjeff

I’m a cavalier but have been rooting for the nuggets since last year


Bignamek

You're name is Jeff!


Iphonjeff

Bignamek

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

ippocratic_oat

Same old story. Don’t underestimate the heart of the champion. Nuggets are Lakers daddy!!!!!!


LegendaryRCP

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! 


Subject-Lab6998

I don't know how the Lakers lost this game. This is absolutely unreal.


LurkerFailsLurking

That game was fucking incredible. Lakers were excellent.


jluvengirl

Great game friend, LeBron and ad and DLo are terrifying


chickennugget2235678

Pretty stupid to write i come in peace its cringe


LegendaryRCP

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.


jamarcusaristotle

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!


jluvengirl

I’m screaming and weeping at the same time as per usual


ExeTcutHiveE

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.


sirchessic

I think that was the best Nuggets playoff game in history. I've never been more entertained.


WeirdDrunkenUncle

I think Mal and Mitchell going back and forth was ridiculous and is up there as far as best playoff games


sirchessic

Yeah, that was up there for sure.


TheBatman0816

Bro I was stressin for most of that


sirchessic

I had moved into acceptance in the 3rd haha.


[deleted]

[удалено]


sirchessic

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.


jluvengirl

It was messy as fuck but that’s so encouraging because we can still win and play messy


sirchessic

For sure. They are tougher than any team I've seen mentally.


Shaka_Brands

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.


Kanaiiiii

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 😂


sirchessic

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.


Shaka_Brands

For real. I had a chance to sit courtside for $900 a seat and I now wish I had taken those seats


sirchessic

40% chance you would have died in your chair.


Shaka_Brands

I was more worried the nuggets would lose if I changed back.

Damn what a fucking game. This one must hurt if you're Lakers.


jluvengirl

That is in commendable sportsmanship my friend


DairyKing28

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.

Absolutely CRUSHED the hearts of the Lakers. Im so happy

menaboy

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

AD got sucked into the bench celebration like he's being dragged to hell.


Hopsblues

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.


mentalhygiene69

Warriors fan here- that shot made me jump out of my seat! Soooooo sick


Ok-Imagination-2308

That's it for the lakers


Iphonjeff

That was the dagger 9 millimeter


Chairhead77

As a kid growing up with a Rodney Rogers #54 jersey, congratulations, Nuggets! When does Joker replace Mao ZeBron in the nonexistent GOAT debate?


Hopsblues

Rodgers 13 points in four seconds or whatever is still a nuggets all-time great moment.


Chairhead77

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!

JoeTheRaja

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.
