So, long story short I would have to say that 3-1 may not be guaranteed win for any other team, but on a team Lebron plays, when you are 3-1 ahead, it is nearly impossible for you to lose it from there, Nuggets are gone after this, maybe they will get one more game, who knows maybe even get another, but the last game of this series will be a Lakers win.

Lebron wouldn't let this lead go away like the choking Clippers. He has a lot of experience under him and players like Rondo who has also championship experience will be the key in game 4 close out.

They should let Rondo to be on the floor always yet he's one of the key on winning out a game when it comes to his precise and very planned passes that can really result into a sure basket.

He does know on when to fake out a pass or give fast breaks to those members which are widely opened or does have the opportunity to shoot.He might not really be that getting that much
attention but this dude is one of the factors on why they are getting the lead now.Denver can caught up when it comes to points but do fall short in the end time.

Lakers wont choke just like on what LAC did- not only talking about Lebron and AD but other members as well like KCP or even Caruso when in talks of team gameplays.

Very well, Rondo has great performance in their last two winnings, his classic fake pass was still there and can still confuse the defense of their opponent. He will be a great factor in this series, even in the NBA finals if indeed Lakers will break the curse on the opposite team of Denver who came back from 3-1 disadvantage.

Nuggets came back from 3-1 already and we know they do not quit but this is Lakers, they do not choke, specially not Lebron. If Lebron has to figure out a way to win the whole game by himself without help from his teammates, dude will do that. This dude played with a fractured hand and had 50+ point triple double against a warriors with Klay, curry, Durant, Draymond and everyone else, he would have won as well if JR didn't forgot that they weren't ahead, that idiot caused them the game.

I agree, but I don't think that Lebron will take everything in his hands with the Lakers, he has Davis now and one of the best supporting casts that can play offense and also play hard defense.

I could easily say that conference finals are not like other levels of basketball, you are literally just 5 wins away from championship, do you really think teams will leave from this level? Miami and lakers are both going to finals in my book, don't care how long it takes but they are both doing it. There is a narrative to be made there as well, Lakers are usually veterans, Miami has so many young players, it is Lebron vs Miami the team he brought 2 championships, there is so much story there as well. I would still prefer if the conference finals were battle of Los Angeles and Lakers beat Clippers and finals would be Lakers vs Celtics historic rivalary, but this Miami thing works out well for Lebron reasons as well. Hopefully there is no injury in neither teams, thats all I am hoping for now.

It had to believe that they would really commit the same run on what they had done in Clippers.They wont really choke for 3 games consecutive and to think that they do already need 1 win to secure out the spot.

Im not really praising up Lebron but he wont really be called GOAT if he arent capable on doing those things but to think that 5 man gameplay is still efficient and much better rather than on making it on solo ride.

Locking up Murray on the last quarter or minutes is really a wise thing that they had done.It likely that Lakers and Heat will be on the finals.

So we don't know if they can come back from 1-3 against this Lakers team, their chances are slim.

It is now 3-1.

Based on the past games of the Denver Nuggets, we could say that LA is not the only one having a reason to be happy about this series. They overcame a 3-1 series twice, now they are on the same situation, will they break their own record? It is true though that the chances are slim and I don't think LAL will make this series longer.

Now the Nuggets are on it again for the 3rd straight time Cheesy

. They are on a 3-1 deficit again.
Now the big question is can they do it again for the 3rd time? They can win against another LA team but now a stronger LA team in Lakers.

The thing is, LeBron is already 14-0 when he's up in 3-1 lead though. Both are making their own run Cheesy

.

Anyway, I just happen to see this one on NBA Buzz post.

Mike Malone Takes A Big Shot At Lakers After Game 4: “I’m Going To Have To Go Through The Proper Channels Like They Did To Get Some More Free Throws.”
-
Malone made sure to let people know what he believed about officiating on Thursday night. The Lakers reportedly talked to the league to complain about LeBron James not getting enough free throws and the coach addressed that situation, stating the Nuggets will use the same tactics to see if something changes for Game 5. Denver attempted 23 free throws in the loss, 12 less than the Lakers.

While Mike admit that they're in fault for letting those offensive rebounds go, then would addressing their concern would make a huge difference? I mean, it seems that the calls made by the referees earlier were fair, well at least for me. But yeah, each game for them from then on is very important though, so that must be it. Anyway, what do you guys think?

Miami Heat will be the champion this year I guess, they're very prepared had much better team chemistry, hardwork pays.

Hope so but they got to head-to-head first to LeBron (or Jokic if they gonna pull the strings again for the 3rd time - the 3-1 deficit champs) and friends and I think that may not be gonna easy for them this time. I think so too that Heat will be the ECF champions.

Recently, I bumped into a meme that says when the series with Los Angeles is 3-1, but it's not Clippers. Lol. I voted on lakers, because I see them as the better team over Denver. Lakers are just too strong this time since Lebron is on the team, I'm not a very big fan of Lebron but the reality is he has a huge impact on the current status of Lakers.

Miami Heat will be the champion this year I guess, they're very prepared had much better team chemistry, hardwork pays.

I voted for the Clippers and obviously I am regretting doing so. Right now I think the Lakers have the best chance of winning the championship. It's awesome to finally have an equal playing field for the most part, rather than a super stacked team like the Warriors.

I voted for Lakers that it will become the champion for this season as I see that their team is doing fine and there are no serious injuries
that happened to their players.

I saw also that more than 50% of the voters are in favor for Lakers to win the 2020 NBA championship but what I am really looking at is whether
who will be their opponent in the finals if in case Lakers can wipe out Denver and will proceed to finals.

I am kind of thinking what strategy does the Celtics still have.
It's like they already given everything in the game and there is still something lacking.

Yes, it looks like we've seen everything and Miami Heat have seen and prepared whatever they have for tonight's game.
The Celtics is the favorites but I have doubts now since this is an elimination game, Miami Heat's defense are way better so I think I'll go with them for the rest of the way, even if they'll lose in this game.

Quote from: danherbias07 on September 25, 2020, 09:27:44 AM

Is it just the Heat is really a better team than them?
I will be betting for the hot Heat in this. Yes, they might finish this. Butler is hungry for a championship game.

Heat is obviously better as they are ahead in the series, but of course series is still alive, Celtics could bounce back.

Big market, Miami and LA, I think this would go game 7, that would make NBA profitable in the bubble.

Davis, Lebron combined for 60pts, and Adebayo, Herro looked so good in the previous games. I think LAL will get champ in 6 games.
Although, I'm expecting some surprises from Heat in the final.

Lakers is always the heavy favorites, prior to the playoffs they are already the favorite to win the NBA Finals.

I guess the ranking on favorites are as follows.

1- Lakers .
2- Clippers
3- Bucks,

The number 2 and 3 was already eliminated, so we won't see a fair odds in the series, Lakers will always be the favorites and that's good for bettors who think Lakers would lose against the Heat or Celtics.

Although I'm for the Lakers, if Denver Nuggets wants to win this bracket they need to do again what they've done for Clippers.

Not just LA Clippers but also Utah Jazz. That is why the meme of the Denver Nuggets overcoming 3-1 is all over the internet now. Saying like they planned this all along, and will come back to the series but this is LA Lakers we are talking about. I guess they wouldn't be able to come back from that like what they did to Jazz and Clippers. Lakers are force to reckon with.

When they are down 3-1 in the past 2 series, many analysts say that it is over but the Nuggets proved that they are wrong. Their experience in the past 2 series will help them to win against the Lakers but I don't think that they can defeat them. Lakers in 6 games and if this went to a Game 7, I will bet all my money to the Nuggets Cheesy

They needed that as they spend a lot in the NBA Bubble, they lose the crowd and that's a huge money considering the salary of the players was not even touch or reduce. At the current series, I think there could be some surprise like one series will go game 7, who knows, that's the surprise. Grin

Big win by the Lakers, Rondo again a good play maker who contributed pretty well in this game, and by the way the scariest part in the game was when Davis almost injured his ankle, damn, Denver could be 4-2 winning the series, good thing, good thing he is alright.

Playoff Rondo, lol, that's experience for you. Let's see if Nuggets will steal the next game to make it more exciting. Or it's 4-1, Lakers vs Miami.

Rondo and Howard is the secret weapon of the Lakers. These both players performance from this series is spectacular, specially Rondo. He's making a huge impact from both ends of the floor.
On game 3, I have just seen the shortest come back run from a 20 point deficit and that's all because of the defensive mindset of the Lakers and Rondo's 3 consecutive steals.
I'm a little bit confident the Lakers will close out this series, specially If the Celtics will survive in game 5.

How does the celtics surviving game 5 make you confident the lakers will win game 5, they are 2 completely independent games/series. Nuggets dug another hold and this one might be too big to get out from under. They need to make a statement in game 5 if they want to get lakers on their heels. Bron in 3 straight close out games is probably too much though.
