ITS THE OFFS BABY THE 2023 NBA PLAYOFFS

the nuggets size is going to be so key. if they can control the boards they are in really good shape

gordon just wrecked reaves lol

gordon bullying fools

That was ridiculous

nuggs are really clicking not much you can do

jfc joker hogging the rebounds

10!

Joker on pace for 50 rebounds

11 boards for jok in 8 mins

lakers transition d....

12 now

good reminder that defensive rebounding is an important component of defense ;)

jok’s been so good at the traditionally visible parts of defense so far too, super active hands, he’s stripped AD like 3 times already

Not to mention some really sick assists, take notes Embiid

disappointed that he didn’t get the first-quarter double-double

if memory serves he has the fastest triple double in history or at least since the merger or whatever

14:33. he’s got some work to do

i would highly recommend to darvin ham not to bench lebron & AD at the same time in this series….

Schröder is doing exactly what I would do if I were an NBA player: pass to Lebron James

jeff green is so fucking bad

not a guy i love to watch play basketball

nuggets dont seem like they have a plan for those bron post ups

jokic is gonna get his boards but when he’s behind the free throw line the lakers absolutely cannot get killed on the offensive glass

jokic hard dunk 🚨

jokic had like 6 dunks this season and he’s yammed in AD’s eye twice in 20 minutes

wow bruce brown very aggressive here good for him

nuggets dont seem like they have a plan for those bron post ups

I think you just live with him one on one and try to avoid fouling

idk i think hell kill you especially if he gets the switch first

why are dudes biting on jokic threes ha

my little personal theory: if the lakers give up 140 points in any game, they will lose

i always say first team to 140 wins

best defense lmfao

i thought the lakers had some good moments on D, AD in rim protection in particular. curious to see what things look like once the shooting settles down a bit… may not be in this game

Nuggets 12/22 on 2s outside the RA, Lakers 6/23 with 1/11 upper paint

not really sure I understand why they’re having AG bring the ball up this half. it’s not working

sometimes there’s some reffing in the NBA where you’re just like….. huh

Joker straight up unbeatable right now

anthony davis’s eyebrow flashes a neon “SOS” every time jokic gets the ball on the block

damn

anthony davis’s eyebrow flashes a neon “SOS” every time jokic gets the ball on the block

that 3 might be the dagger

ad's reaction to that was exquisite

unbelievable

c’mon now he clean blocked jokic straight up in the post in this very game…

brother, I have 31

the nuggets played around too much that quarter but the lakers did go like 7/8 from middy

jokic is scoring points not hugely surprising but i don’t think anthony davis is scared to guard him in the post lol

oh my god man alright lol

stuff is just goin in no matter what huh

jamal is having a truly atrocious game
