There is really nothing that big from just one game, let's remember Clippers were 3-1 ahead when Denver pulled together and won that series, they did that on the first round as well, this team is not a team that starts very well but it is a team that finishes very well so you have to realize what is going on and you have to wait for it, Lakers can't get snobby now because if they think they have this in the bag and start to slag off, even after 3-1, Denver will beat them 3 times in a row.

This is why I believe the first game means nothing. Lakers however did showed a great outing, as long as they can get great contribution from the bench unit like Howard and Rondo they could totally get this in the bag, as long as bench provides, they are miles ahead in talent and experience than Denver.

That's so true. Thank you. Wink

Yeah, the Lakers did great.
Frank Vogel's rotation got even better since they are not up against a small team like Houston.
Jokic was having a hard time making good plays since Howard is all over him.
But, I know Coach Malone has something up his sleeve. We will see that at Game 2. I am feeling there will be a lot of changes in their gameplay.

Celtics vs Heat again later. I am still having a hard time picking who will win even with the Heat up by 2. I guess it's because of the close ends of the game.
Celtics might just win this next.

Final Score is Lakers 126 , Nuggets 114.

Oh no, I was not able to watch the game for I have some things to do which is equally important. Probably will going to watch the highlights of the game.

If you are a Denver fan, you might get disappointed with their performance in game 1.
But go on, watch the highlights everything is there but mostly you will see is on who they got dominated by the Lakers.

If it was Clippers vs Lakers, things might be different.

So sad, that my choice did not make it to game 1. I just have to move on and hope that in game 2 they will be able to win it. If not then clearly it will be lakers play against the championship game. In the east conference boston and Miami too had been not good too with celtics. I was also hopingn for this team to get championship but it seems agaim that it will be impossible now with missing key players in their team.

The East had a good series though it was already Miami Heat who had a commanding lead but the last 2 games, games are very close and even in game 2 it always went into OT. Again, we will see a great game tomorrow, it's game 3 and it's a must win for the Celtics.

But its not the Clippers who are in so guess we will never find out how that game 1 would be. This is only one game. There is pressure on the nugs now because they certainly do not want to play down 2 to the Lakers. I expect there will be some adjustments made on both sides so will be interesting watching game 2.

Don't overreact on that, it's just game 1, it's a best of 7 series, Nuggets won't bow easily, remember that.
Don't expect a Clippers vs Lakers, Nuggets already beat the Clips, let's give them credit for that.

I agree with you on that, and in fact, it's sunday in my timezone tomorrow and I'll be chilling out with friends watching the game live while drinking some beer. Celtics or Heat? I don't know yet.

Final Score is Lakers 126 , Nuggets 114.

Others might see this as Nuggets played poorly but they played well. But the problem is, the Lakers played much better.

Foul trouble also killed the Nuggets momentum. I'm Lakers on the series but I like Nuggets to give them a hard fight like what they did to the expected team to beat the Lakers in the playoffs, the Los Angeles Clippers.

Foul trouble is the main factor why Nuggets didn't play at its highest. Early foul trouble of Jokic and Murray hinders them to create more points especially in the 2nd Quarter where they gave at least 20 free throws. When the Lakers did go away in that Quarter, the Nuggets didn't have the chance to go near from them.

On the other hand, we saw a Playoff Rondo and a Playoff Howard on that game. Lebron didn't scored that much but he has 12 assists and only 1 turnover while Rondo and Howard stepped up creating passes and dominating the paint. The Nuggets didn't have any answer for both of them and they didn't expect it TBH. Davis did the most points with 37.

I'm hoping that the Nuggets will make some adjustments in the next game and TBH, I don't think that they can do it again that they are down 1-3 and will win the series again. This is the Lakers already where 2 are in the All-NBA First Team.

They definitely need to make an adjustment, but if they will lose in game 2, that's not worrying for me as they had come back from 3-1 deficit in the last 2 series, which I think they can do to any team, even the Lakers.

Watch the first two quarters and says that Lakers are more coherent team and Nuggets wasn't able to stop their transition game. And I would also commend Dwight Howard, he played a crafted defense on Jokic in the second quarter, draw some offensive fouls on him and that's it. Jokic wasn't able to get back in the game mentally. While Howard created a lot of opportunity, blocking shots, trash talking, I think he is one of the intangibles in this Game 1.

Miami won yesterday. 2-0 vs. Celtics

Who's watching the game of Lakers and Nuggets? the game's still in Q2 and the Lakers is leading the game.

Lkers leading but it' just reminding me from how Nuggets comeback and beats the Clips.

Lets wait till the final buzzer, Jokic and Murray needs some extra lift from their teammates, like how the Lakers are is playing
as a team, Rondo really plays well finding the open no need for LeBron and Davis to force to the basket.
Still too early but so far Lakers seems dominating the game.

It's on the half time now. Lakers is leading 11 points. Still attainable to be reached and led by Nuggets.

Two more quarters to go.

We will see at the end of this series if Nuggets will do the same as they did with Clippers. But I'm expecting that this series isn't going to be like that.

Final quarter now and Lakers still dominating, leading by 24 points, let see how nuggets will try to push the last run
or they will rest Jokic and Murray then comeback strong in game 2.
Anything can happen as we already witness lots of alike situations before the WCF finals. Keep watching till the last
buzzer.

The game ended with the score of 126 - 114.

Not bad as we're expecting Lakers to win this game. Not bad for Denver Nuggets. At least we get to see them can play toe to toe with Lakers. Waiting for the next game.

Maybe it will turn the tables and be in favor of Denver.

Blowing two digit leads now are a thing.

It happened to Boston Celtics, it happened to LA Clippers and it can also happen in this game since this is Denver Nuggets we are talking about. I agree that we should just wait now until the final buzzer since we never know when will these players blow up. I can't watch right now so I just pinned the scoreboard that is available on Google.

It's more on a mental game now, Howard is playing good defense on Jokic and did bring him to foul trouble. While Murray is frustrated as well because of the tight defense Lakers are playing on him.

The rest of the Nuggets are just watching, Lol. But let's see, its too early, but I don't know if Lakers are going to collapse if Nuggets come back in the next two quarters.

Being a professional basketball players, I don't think that their willpower will be removed just by what happened in Game 2.
Yelling and throwing some items on the locker room? That just their way of releasing their frustration after leading by double digits and yet lost again for the 2nd straight time but I don't think it as a negative all the way. In the end, they will go back to the drawing board, make some adjustments and win the game and at least the series.

Even though I'm saying that, I will still predicting Miami to win in 5-6 games Tongue

.

I don't even know why is this a big thing.

It is true that they made a ruckus about that but I think they should also consider that they are professional players, they are playing for years now and that is something that's done out of frustration. If I am in his shoes, I will be frustrated too but I can't blame that to all of my teamates since we just have that time we can't play that great and another thing is that their opponent is so great in this playoffs. They gotta release that so they could perform well in the next game.

I really like how Miami is playing also...
They have turned into a complete new team in the bubble and have been playing some good ball. Celtics is giving them a good fight but Miami always seems to shift up their play in the 2nd half and thats where they show their true class.
Down 13 at half... and that 3rd Quarter! Wow!

Even though the miami had no dwayne wade already, they get to the play-offs by the help of former MVP iguodala. What happens to my favourite team, celtics? They just beat by rookies? How come Tatum and other players accept this. Hoping that they will take the 3rd Game in order to extend the series. Clippers was my favorite team as well but it was slayed already by Nuggets. I think Lakers have now guarantee to take the championship in this season.

Celtics didn't accept this, in fact as reported by several NBA media, there was a shouting match at the locker room of the C's after the match. Marcus Smart and Jaylen Brown are just two names popping around. So I'm expecting the the Boston Celtics will give everything at game 3, because this is a crucial game. They don't want to be in the position wherein they have to claw back from 0-3 deficit. And we all know that history will not be on their side if that happens. Take it one game at a time.
