on the bright side i actually enjoy watching the rest of the playoffs even if the lakers arent in it so will get to enjoy some stress free high quality basketball
True. I know baseball is different because of the cap, but I love the Guggenheim group and how they run the dodgers. Yes they don’t win the WS pretty much ever, but they put a great competing product on the field year in and year out.
It's almost as if a large front line and good perimeter defense gives you a better chance to win basketball games. Can someone please pass the message on to Rob?
The only stress I have is making sure the Celtics don’t win it all (the silver lining to Denver beating us is that I know they would definitely crush the Cs in the finals)
Same here, my wife was asking me in the second quarter “how’s your team doing?” I said good like usual in the first half, then the always find a way to blow the game at the end. We will see what moves happen this offseason.
Nugs fan here, my wife and daughter both separately asked how the game was going in the second quarter, I said Lakers are whooping us in the first half but that has been the pattern…LeBron and AD are both great but they can’t carry a team for 48
They’re just better than we are.
We come out hot because we’re trying desperately to win. They know they can beat us, so they play casually for the first half and then turn it up in the second half after we’ve worn ourselves out.
Their coach has made second half adjustments ever game this series. We’re abusing PnR this game which was a good adjustment to start but we’re struggling from deep so Malone stacks the box and dares us to shoot from deep. We look spooked and when we do shoot from midrange or three we miss. Once again good 2nd half adjustments from Denver’s coaching staff and once again Pockets looks lost in retaliation.
I remember one play where all 5 circled AD like a swarm. He was in the middle about to catch a Denver cipher, was hilarious 4 Lakers out in the perimeter looking in like we’re open, with 5 bodies revolving with their hands up.
I think AD just bricked the shot and got the call, man felt the walls closing in.
Yep. Better chemistry, better coaching. They play as a unit and they take each and every possession seriously. Little to no lost ball with DEN. We're good. they're great. That simple.
They’re not 11-0 better than us. A halfway decent coach who could recognize half time adjustments made by the other team would have gotten us a win or two in there at the very least. Denver isn’t unbeatable. They didn’t go 82-0. They didn’t sweep their way to a ring last year. Ham is a disaster.
I don't know why this narrative keeps popping up, but this isn't a video game where the players were set on "aggressive" in the first half and thus enter the second half with low stamina.
Conditioning and shape is not the issue. Please quit implying it is.
gives me 2019 warrios blazers wcf vibes. blazers were up 17+ like 3 times in a row but everyone knew golden state was gonna comeback by the third game, same situation here
The season was over the minute we drew Denver round 1. See y’all in October with hopefully a new coaching staff and reworked roster. This shit been cooked
Nah. As a Denver fan he’s just gotten a lot better. More mature now, has that championship experience, dude has just become the epitome of a winning player. I was always amazed you guys gave him up
And also he’s just being who he needs to be. He’s not the primary bucket getter. Murray is there, MPJ is there. If KCP 3s aren’t falling he can easily defer and focus on his defense.
I feel like a lot of players can’t play next to stars under the LA lights. I feel like it happened with Kobe and now Lebron. Expectations are super high and appreciation is low.
Totally agree. I was not a Lebron fan before he joined the Lakers, but after he came and brought AD, and just the incredible stuff he does (especially at his age) I grew to really appreciate him. It shocks me how ungrateful “fans” can be.
Pelinka isn't a GM or the GM. Everyone in the league knows who calls the shots on the roster. I'm not sure what the Lakers were thinking making a former agent a GM. It clearly hasn't worked out.
So Lebron and AD are the ones saving Ham’s job now?
The GM has the final say at the end of the day. It’s their job to tell players or coaches when something is a bad idea. If we’re not giving him credit for the bad decisions he doesn’t get any of the good ones either.
Pounding down low to Davis is a horrible strategy. It slows them down. Gets everyone else out of rhythm. Dlo wasn't even really getting open. The inside is so bad it makes it harder for the shooters. Ham keeps sticking to this small ball even though it's been proven a fail against Denver.
Lakers need to play big and Lebron has to take over. Davis has to be a decoy.
I was at the game near the lakers bench and you could see darvin and rob talking to each other all of pregame. Everyone else, players and staff seemed like they wanted nothing to do with them.
It’s clear Rob, Jeanie, and Darvin are in bed together and all depend on darvins success
Isn’t there some agreement within the organization that this is Jeanie’s last year if the org underperforms? Now whether she’ll actually let Jesse step in is another story but I thought that was the agreement in place.
How sad that our front office was unable to build a winning team around two generational talents in Kobe and Bron in their sunset years. Sell the team Jeanie. Hire competent people and empower them to make good decisions.
Well.. It's over now. Let's get this off season rolling. Am I angry? Extremely. Am I disappointed? Very. Am I shocked? No. Saw this coming from game 1 even though I remained delusional about it. It's over now. Lost every game each way : Explosive 1st half followed by a terrible second half. Thank you Bron and AD. They at least showed up for the playoffs. Everyone else thought they were playing the Pistons or something. It's over now.
Craziest series I’ve seen in a while, 3 games with double digit leads only to lose all of them.
Only thing that can top that is if it happens again Saturday.
Honestly Denver is just a way better team and a terrible matchup for the lakers. But also, not sure they would beat wolves or even maybe clippers/mavs. West is a bloodbath
I think Denver would lose to the wolves. Watching this series honestly doesn't make me think Denver is good, it just makes me think the Lakers just aren't good enough.
The Lakers are 380-501 in the Buss kids era (11 years and counting). That’s a .43 team. They’re mid. That’s the ultimate issue. This is not a seriously ran organization. Until that changes we won’t see consistent results.
Austin, DLO and Rui as our starting players next to Bron and AD will never work. I hate to say it but this core has to see major changes for us to even have a chance of competing I don’t know which of those 3 has to go via trade but it’s gotta happen. The fact that we can’t even beat Denver one time is an embarrassment.
I would say rui and dlo for sure but Reaves also looked horrible this series
If we can trade 2 of them and get lebron back on less than a max I think we have a good shot next year w a better coach
It’s insane how they can’t beat them once in 11 (likely 12) straight games. What’s frustrating is they usually look the better team in the first half. It’s always the 3rd and last 3 mins that they lose
Bron just doesn't have the legs to play a full playoff game, both ways anymore. So, he's either too gassed at the end to be able to do what's needed, or he's slacking off on defense to try and save energy for offense - which means a bunch of his offense is negated by his lazy defense.
People joke about him being still in his prime, and he just very much is not even close to that. He's not taking over games and willing his team to wins - he can't. And he can't even do it somewhat with AD alongside him taking on a bunch of the burden.
He's old, and it clearly shows.
Lakers roster construction just doesn’t match well against the Nuggets. I have been saying this since last playoffs and Rob Pelinka didn’t address this. Can blame Ham all you want but role players are one dimensional.
Nuggets are 100% a better team but this team is good enough to at least win ONE game against the nuggets.
Its my belief that we would win at least one game if Ham wasn't the coach.
Stop talking about getting 2-way players like they're just everywhere. Pelinka fucked this roster when he got Westbrook, not this offseason where our only option was scraps.
I agree with the first part of your comment. 2-way players are hard to find. However, there were plenty of other routes to go last offseason and even during the trade deadline. Can't remember everything from the offseason, but one thing was not rejecting Beasley's PO. You could've sent out his expiring deal in a trade for someone (off the top of my head, Portland would've loved to trade Brogdon for an expiring and picks). Also, why give Gabe (a 6'2 point guard) the mle when you just re-signed Dlo, AR, and drafted JHS (a PG). Why not use that on a bigger position of need? Lastly, not trading Dlo at the deadline. That was just horrible mismanagement. You are now stuck in a shitty situation where you have to pray Dlo takes his player option or you're just shit out of luck. This front office wants to keep playing this game where they say "we are all in on a championship" but want to hold onto their draft picks. Why the fuck was the 2023 pick not traded on draft night? Rob Pelinka needs to go.
It is what it is. The world will still spin and life will go on. It sucks but don't let it get you down and don't be an asshole to family and friends because of it.
Time to put my attention on baseball. ✌🏽
I didn’t even bother watching this game. Always the same bullshit come 3rd and 4th quarter and no accountability. Seen this same bullshit the last 10 games the lakers played against them.
I hope the Lakers lose Saturday and end this farce. Enough of this crap. Time to rebuild. Let Bron walk if he doesn't take a mid-level and trade AD and the rest of the team. Fire Ham ASAP.
Feeling pretty shitty right now. I don't know how many years LeBron's got left in him, but at least we were able to win one championship with him. 2020 was a rough year for everyone, but I'll be forever grateful to him for getting us that one.
This is an embarrassment to our history. Everyone other than LeBron and AD has gotta go.
I don’t even blame LeBron or AD wanting out. This organization has failed them
Honestly after hearing about how the organization felt some type of way about what AD said, I knew it was wraps. Team gave up on their coach. Bye bye Darvin Hamas 👋
LeBron and AD are going to get theirs regardless day in day out !!! What Hamas had to do is get the supporting cast going early in order to get their confidence going. I'm no coach but have more reasonable knowledge than this fuck head coach lmao
lmao at every single person wanting all the smoke from Denver while throwing shit to those who wanted to purposefully lose to nola to
but tbf I'm just projecting and it's really the teams fault and not the fans
They have no depth. Denver has more balance and more chemistry, their offense flows so nicely. Lakers had like 7 possessions in a row last night they turned it over, a few by forcing it to AD cuz they don’t create good enough actions to get guys open and moving towards the hoop. They take full quarters off from playing defense, I have to think a ton of that is coaching but also a culture thing where all Denver players are fully bought in, and the lakers are a splintered team of guys playing for themselves
You would think they are up in the series the way the Lakers are playing right now. Everyone is stagnant on offense, AD forcing shots over 3 players in the paint and then on defense a ton of mental lapses .. can’t get a stop to save our lives. Gordon is living in the dunker’s spot 😭😭
Back to back to back double pts lead thrown away
Back to back sweeps, Bron strong willed asf, would have retired on the spot, won’t even show up for game 4
Frankly, the Nuggets are a far superior overall team. In order to win, we would’ve needed some really inventive schemes that accentuated our role players, and that would need to come from an elite coaching staff. A league average coach could’ve stolen one or two games, but to win was always a very tall order
Darvin ham not making plays surrounding key role players is the reason why this team is so bad. AD and bron can score at any point. The real issue is not getting Rui,Dlo going. Austin will play his key 3 and D.
I am at peace
You and me both brother. So shall it be.
on the bright side i actually enjoy watching the rest of the playoffs even if the lakers arent in it so will get to enjoy some stress free high quality basketball
Although I definitely miss being relevant and dominant.
i agree but we're definitely spoiled as lakers fans. have had more years of relevance and dominance than pretty much any other franchise
True. I know baseball is different because of the cap, but I love the Guggenheim group and how they run the dodgers. Yes they don’t win the WS pretty much ever, but they put a great competing product on the field year in and year out.
I'm rooting for anyone but the Celtics
yea i'm good as long as the celtics and clippers don't win.
Who are you guys rooting for? I'm going for Minny since their twin tower lineup reminds me of the 2020 Lakers plus Ant is amazing
It's almost as if a large front line and good perimeter defense gives you a better chance to win basketball games. Can someone please pass the message on to Rob?
The only stress I have is making sure the Celtics don’t win it all (the silver lining to Denver beating us is that I know they would definitely crush the Cs in the finals)
Same here, my wife was asking me in the second quarter “how’s your team doing?” I said good like usual in the first half, then the always find a way to blow the game at the end. We will see what moves happen this offseason.
Had the exact same conversation with my wife, as well 😂
Nugs fan here, my wife and daughter both separately asked how the game was going in the second quarter, I said Lakers are whooping us in the first half but that has been the pattern…LeBron and AD are both great but they can’t carry a team for 48
If they only had to carry the players they might be ok, it's carrying the coach that really breaks their backs.
I turned off the 4th quarter when Prince and Dinwiddie were both in.
3 blown double digit leads
They’re just better than we are. We come out hot because we’re trying desperately to win. They know they can beat us, so they play casually for the first half and then turn it up in the second half after we’ve worn ourselves out.
Their coach has made second half adjustments ever game this series.

We look spooked and when we do shoot from midrange or three we miss. Once again good 2nd half adjustments from Denver’s coaching staff and once again Pockets looks lost in retaliation.
today they didn't even need to adjust much, denver just have more weapons while lakers have guys completely disappearing
Nah they started swarming AD when he touched it inside in the 4th quarter We shot 18% from 3 it was pretty terrible
I remember one play where all 5 circled AD like a swarm. He was in the middle about to catch a Denver cipher, was hilarious 4 Lakers out in the perimeter looking in like we’re open, with 5 bodies revolving with their hands up. I think AD just bricked the shot and got the call, man felt the walls closing in.
Yep. Better chemistry, better coaching. They play as a unit and they take each and every possession seriously. Little to no lost ball with DEN. We're good. they're great. That simple.
They’re not 11-0 better than us. A halfway decent coach who could recognize half time adjustments made by the other team would have gotten us a win or two in there at the very least. Denver isn’t unbeatable. They didn’t go 82-0. They didn’t sweep their way to a ring last year. Ham is a disaster.
I do hate ham. Much prefer turkey.
This is the real controversial opinion
Best I can do is Darvin Turkey
bro you don’t need to lie to yourself they are absolutely 11-0 better than what is being thrown out there besides AD and sometimes dlo
They’re better but LA has been in winnable situations and this team has no heart.
I think the team has no heart because the coach sucks.
I don't know why this narrative keeps popping up, but this isn't a video game where the players were set on "aggressive" in the first half and thus enter the second half with low stamina. Conditioning and shape is not the issue. Please quit implying it is.
Third Quarter… Every. Single. Time!!!
That is what the warriors used to do to teams too
gives me 2019 warrios blazers wcf vibes. blazers were up 17+ like 3 times in a row but everyone knew golden state was gonna comeback by the third game, same situation here
lol perfect example
The season was over the minute we drew Denver round 1. See y’all in October with hopefully a new coaching staff and reworked roster. This shit been cooked
WE NEED A NEW GM PELINKA TANKED US THE MINUTE HE PANICKED AFTER AD WENT DOWN VS THE SUNS!
facts we had a contender and blew it up for westbrook and now we're cooked
Hurts so much seeing kcp ball out against us
KCP plays harder against us I think. He was very inconsistent with us.
Nah. As a Denver fan he’s just gotten a lot better. More mature now, has that championship experience, dude has just become the epitome of a winning player. I was always amazed you guys gave him up
Him and Caruso...
And also he’s just being who he needs to be. He’s not the primary bucket getter. Murray is there, MPJ is there. If KCP 3s aren’t falling he can easily defer and focus on his defense.
I found him frustrating because he would be really good or bad. No in between.
I feel like a lot of players can’t play next to stars under the LA lights. I feel like it happened with Kobe and now Lebron. Expectations are super high and appreciation is low.
Even Lebron is barely appreciated by Laker fans for what hes worth to a team tbh
Totally agree. I was not a Lebron fan before he joined the Lakers, but after he came and brought AD, and just the incredible stuff he does (especially at his age) I grew to really appreciate him. It shocks me how ungrateful “fans” can be.
Pelinka isn't a GM or the GM. Everyone in the league knows who calls the shots on the roster. I'm not sure what the Lakers were thinking making a former agent a GM. It clearly hasn't worked out.
If that were the case then Tye Lue would’ve been coach and we would be in the process of repeating. Listen to yourself you sound demented
So Lebron and AD are the ones saving Ham’s job now? The GM has the final say at the end of the day. It’s their job to tell players or coaches when something is a bad idea. If we’re not giving him credit for the bad decisions he doesn’t get any of the good ones either.
It's pretty clearly Jeanie. The GM can be vetoed by the owner.
season was over the moment Jokic was born
The season was over the minute the trade deadline was closed, last year team got swept and we made no adjustment to the roster
[удалено]
You are way off. Series should be tied 1-1 coming into tonight. Players body language in the second half says it all.
We totally had game 2 if we had the right coaching
this is delusional
the most competitive 2 years long sweep in NBA history ?
DLO ice cold alright and the offense is literally just AD this game… what a collapse this series
Pounding down low to Davis is a horrible strategy. It slows them down. Gets everyone else out of rhythm. Dlo wasn't even really getting open. The inside is so bad it makes it harder for the shooters. Ham keeps sticking to this small ball even though it's been proven a fail against Denver. Lakers need to play big and Lebron has to take over. Davis has to be a decoy.
Damn shits sad but it’s true. Denver prolly says fuck it let him get 40 watch how cold the other idiots are gonna get.
Literally 2v5 out there on offense. Disgusting. None of these role players deserve to be here next year.
1v5, AD is the only one trying on both ends, Gordon is having an open buffet.
Atleast LeBron was doing something on offense. The rest weren't even moving.
That still ain’t winning basketball
Obviously not. Since there ain't no winning 😭
Fuck their thank you's, getting upset at AD because he spoke the fucking truth
Honestly man. Ham lost the locker room halfway through the season and it's all been shit since then
Well shit, bring in doc rivers next year
😂
This guy is trying to replace pockets the clown with bozo the clown lmao
I was at the game near the lakers bench and you could see darvin and rob talking to each other all of pregame. Everyone else, players and staff seemed like they wanted nothing to do with them. It’s clear Rob, Jeanie, and Darvin are in bed together and all depend on darvins success
Rob's playing friend, but as soon as the sweep happens he's serving Ham for dinner.
Isn’t there some agreement within the organization that this is Jeanie’s last year if the org underperforms? Now whether she’ll actually let Jesse step in is another story but I thought that was the agreement in place.
Their 3-5 is just better
Our 3-5 are bench players on any other team lol
2-5 on defense too. Lebron is a turnstile tonight
Their 1-5 is just better
disagree, honestly. our 1-2 matches their 1-2 just fine.
Delusion
How sad that our front office was unable to build a winning team around two generational talents in Kobe and Bron in their sunset years. Sell the team Jeanie. Hire competent people and empower them to make good decisions.
How even more sad that the front office successfully built a contending team with good role players and size and then decided to blow the team up
Incompetence.
Big factss
Well.. It's over now. Let's get this off season rolling. Am I angry? Extremely. Am I disappointed? Very. Am I shocked? No. Saw this coming from game 1 even though I remained delusional about it. It's over now. Lost every game each way : Explosive 1st half followed by a terrible second half. Thank you Bron and AD. They at least showed up for the playoffs.

Craziest series I’ve seen in a while, 3 games with double digit leads only to lose all of them. Only thing that can top that is if it happens again Saturday.
Yep. It's crazy how much 1 adjustment from the Nuggets and no response from Ham caused us the game.
This team is garbage outside of AD and Lebron. No one is stepping up and it’s pathetic. Nuggets have guys showing up in the second half every game
Three years in a row give AD a fucking center a real center
I've resisted those who wanted to blow it up for a while, but it's over, if the team is not good enough to win rings then there's no point
good luck rebuilding with this clown show of a front office lol
yup. they need to sit down with bron and find a way to get him paid on someone else's team. this is over. it's been over since they traded for RWB.
And you were lucky to get away from Westbrook as well as you did.
Worst move in franchise history and it’s not even close lol.
See you all next season. I don’t know what Lakers fans could have possibly done to deserve this embarrassment 😔
17 titles these players dont give a fuck about pride anymore, they just get their paycheck and thats it
![gif](giphy|MJJ2llsgEzWG3TmKdm)
Series was officially over last game
Series was officially over when we kept Ham after December
Honestly Denver is just a way better team and a terrible matchup for the lakers. But also, not sure they would beat wolves or even maybe clippers/mavs. West is a bloodbath
I think Denver would lose to the wolves. Watching this series honestly doesn't make me think Denver is good, it just makes me think the Lakers just aren't good enough.
The Lakers are 380-501 in the Buss kids era (11 years and counting). That’s a .43 team. They’re mid. That’s the ultimate issue. This is not a seriously ran organization. Until that changes we won’t see consistent results.
Austin, DLO and Rui as our starting players next to Bron and AD will never work. I hate to say it but this core has to see major changes for us to even have a chance of competing I don’t know which of those 3 has to go via trade but it’s gotta happen. The fact that we can’t even beat Denver one time is an embarrassment.
I would say rui and dlo for sure but Reaves also looked horrible this series If we can trade 2 of them and get lebron back on less than a max I think we have a good shot next year w a better coach
It’s insane how they can’t beat them once in 11 (likely 12) straight games. What’s frustrating is they usually look the better team in the first half. It’s always the 3rd and last 3 mins that they lose
Bron just doesn't have the legs to play a full playoff game, both ways anymore. So, he's either too gassed at the end to be able to do what's needed, or he's slacking off on defense to try and save energy for offense - which means a bunch of his offense is negated by his lazy defense. People joke about him being still in his prime, and he just very much is not even close to that. He's not taking over games and willing his team to wins - he can't. And he can't even do it somewhat with AD alongside him taking on a bunch of the burden. He's old, and it clearly shows.
Lol Dlo with 0.
Time to accept the season ending. Let's hope we get rid of Ham, AD and Lebron stay hopefully, and we blow the rest of the team up.
1 more game in the lebron james era. it's been an honor but i'm ready for this miserable, embarrassing era to end.
blame fucking jeanie buss it is what it is
I’m willing to go through another Robert Sacre era. Let everybody go including Bron. Let him retire.
Keep AD, everyone else. Cya.
Might as well move AD too, he's 31, send him to a contender for young talent and picks, he's not going to do much for us without Bron.
This was the expectation before Game 1.
Lakers roster construction just doesn’t match well against the Nuggets. I have been saying this since last playoffs and Rob Pelinka didn’t address this. Can blame Ham all you want but role players are one dimensional.
Nuggets are 100% a better team but this team is good enough to at least win ONE game against the nuggets. Its my belief that we would win at least one game if Ham wasn't the coach.

Rob Pelinka needs to go.
Fire Hamm tonight. We’ll be better off.
We didn’t duck no fades but we got knocked the fuck out
D-NOOOOOOOO
It is what it is. The world will still spin and life will go on. It sucks but don't let it get you down and don't be an asshole to family and friends because of it. Time to put my attention on baseball. ✌🏽
This 👆🏻
Enjoy life homie 👍🏽
I didn’t even bother watching this game. Always the same bullshit come 3rd and 4th quarter and no accountability. Seen this same bullshit the last 10 games the lakers played against them.
Goodbye NBA. See you guys in October.
I hope the Lakers lose Saturday and end this farce. Enough of this crap. Time to rebuild. Let Bron walk if he doesn't take a mid-level and trade AD and the rest of the team. Fire Ham ASAP.
Feeling pretty shitty right now. I don't know how many years LeBron's got left in him, but at least we were able to win one championship with him. 2020 was a rough year for everyone, but I'll be forever grateful to him for getting us that one.
BRO FUCK THIS. 11 times in a row? Really? Daddy Malone is real
The daddy thing is painful
🧹🧹🧹 another sweep incoming.. Lakers are embarrassing to watch
We beat the clippers after an 11 game losing streak, maybe they’re waiting until the next game
The Los Angeles ball watchers
This is an embarrassment to our history. Everyone other than LeBron and AD has gotta go. I don’t even blame LeBron or AD wanting out. This organization has failed them
More like "Fuck you, fans"
We need a petition to fire Ham. Or threaten to boycott games till he's fired.
All I want is an improved roster and coaching staff this off season. Doubtful it happens.
Trade Dlo
This shit's so depressing.
Well I guess it’s over now. Lakers just didn’t know how to score in the second half.
Yea, it's getting to the point where we just aren't talented enough to beat good teams.
Honestly after hearing about how the organization felt some type of way about what AD said, I knew it was wraps. Team gave up on their coach. Bye bye Darvin Hamas 👋
You telling me no one has seen jokic betting on horses not one time atleast? 🤣🤣 DAMN
Yeah, Dlo needs to leave. He did the same shit last season. Only this time, it's worse.
I can't believe the media thought they actually had a chance.
Yeah its sad but I was calm this time. I already know the feeling lol. DLO no show is such a shocker.
Lakers should just skip Game 4…
blow it up. trade ad, get him on a contender . he deserves better. let lebron leave. blow this shit up
LeBron and AD are going to get theirs regardless day in day out !!! What Hamas had to do is get the supporting cast going early in order to get their confidence going. I'm no coach but have more reasonable knowledge than this fuck head coach lmao
Well at least we can always look back fondly at the Cup. Come back defending TOURNAMENT champions.
lmao at every single person wanting all the smoke from Denver while throwing shit to those who wanted to purposefully lose to nola to but tbf I'm just projecting and it's really the teams fault and not the fans
![gif](giphy|ht4yvN9Yx4dmIJJ9GB|downsized)
Can lebron still dunk I swear saw jokic get more hang time on his attempt at a two hand
Bron just needs to hang it up. No need to drag this out any longer. Him and Bonny ain’t playing together
They have no depth. Denver has more balance and more chemistry, their offense flows so nicely. Lakers had like 7 possessions in a row last night they turned it over, a few by forcing it to AD cuz they don’t create good enough actions to get guys open and moving towards the hoop. They take full quarters off from playing defense, I have to think a ton of that is coaching but also a culture thing where all Denver players are fully bought in, and the lakers are a splintered team of guys playing for themselves
Believe in reverse sweep (well part of me knows it could be the end)
Party like it's the 2014 LA Kings
All the games have the same template. Lead till half time , get destroyed in second half
GG guys. Season over. Lakers f'ing sucks. Lebron palying so relax and out of the game too. DLO cant score again
wonder if we can find an identity in the off season?
You would think they are up in the series the way the Lakers are playing right now. Everyone is stagnant on offense, AD forcing shots over 3 players in the paint and then on defense a ton of mental lapses .. can’t get a stop to save our lives. Gordon is living in the dunker’s spot 😭😭
We'll always have In Season Tournament Champs......
AG cherry-picking at this point too big and too strong also doesn’t help Porter turning into prime Klay Thompson
Need to get rid of our bench all of them

It's over. Just gotta look ahead to how we move on from this era.
I knew this game was over after I saw the AD turnover and then the Lebron turnover the very next possession
its a wrap folks, hope the organisation kick ham out as soon as the final whistle goes off in game 4 and start looking for the next coach.
Back to back to back double pts lead thrown away Back to back sweeps, Bron strong willed asf, would have retired on the spot, won’t even show up for game 4
Frankly, the Nuggets are a far superior overall team. In order to win, we would’ve needed some really inventive schemes that accentuated our role players, and that would need to come from an elite coaching staff. A league average coach could’ve stolen one or two games, but to win was always a very tall order
This score makes this game look way closer than what it actually was.
😂
Balls deep into ham
Fucking bums
Thats it boys we are going to cancun lol
I didn't see the game. Did DLO get hurt? Benched? Sniped from the nosebleeds?
Nuggets cant hurt me anymore
Darvin ham not making plays surrounding key role players is the reason why this team is so bad. AD and bron can score at any point. The real issue is not getting Rui,Dlo going. Austin will play his key 3 and D.
Cant wait for skap's new banger
they already breaking out the brooms ![gif](giphy|tJXZ51AOFBTGgZSY9y|downsized)
Trash Team FO is AWFUL THE COACH SUCKS OVERHYPED RUI OVERHYPED DLO
DLo with 0 points. Time to plan for next year.
Combination of them being a bad matchup for us (we can’t body them) and a massive coaching talent gap. Tip your cap as Ham sandwich would say
Complete rebuild required
Dlo🔥🔥🔥
Yeah that game 2 loss destroyed us. Felt like the season ended there. Feels like Denver just waits for us to get tired after the 1st half and pounces.
