Murray completed the redemption and dealt with the big triple-double, but Zhan Meibang 58+19+14 was difficult to save

At ten o'clock in the morning on April 23, Beijing time, the first round of G2 between the Lakers and the Nuggets officially started! In the G1 competition between the two teams, although James played 100% with thick eyebrows, the two combined for 59 points, 20 rebounds and 13 assists, but in the case of other people's poor performance, the Lakers finally failed to win! Especially Russell, who was 6 out of 20, can be called a cancer.
