The NBA playoffs are in full swing, and just today the Lakers are at home against the defending champion Nuggets, the third game of the series between the Lakers and the Nuggets. In the last game, the Lakers performed well, and although they were eliminated in the end, the Lakers performed in good form. In this game, the Lakers also played a good performance at the beginning, but in the second half, there were old problems and they were reversed again. In the end, the Lakers lost to the Nuggets 105-112, and the series score came to 0-3, and in the playoffs, the Lakers have already lost seven consecutive games against the Nuggets. In their next game, the Lakers will face a do-or-die battle, and if they can't beat the Nuggets, then they will be swept by the Nuggets for the second year in a row.
After falling behind 0-3, the Lakers suffered two more bad news. The first piece of bad news is that there have been 151 3-0 downs in NBA playoff history, and no team in NBA history has completed a comeback in this situation. While the stats and probabilities can't be a complete proof of the Lakers' first-round exit, it's only a matter of time before the Lakers are out in the first round, both regularly and historically. However, the good news is that in the history of the NBA, there has been a 0-3 deficit to tie the score, and James has also created a 3-1 comeback when he was with the Cavaliers.
And the second unfavorable news also proves from the side that James' exit in this series seems to be a certainty. Statistically, after trailing 0-3 today, James has gone 0-3 for the fifth time in his career in the playoffs, and the last time he was 0-3 was in last season's Western Conference Finals against the Nuggets. In the first 4 times of falling behind 0-3, James never completed the reversal, a law that has not been broken by James since he entered the playoffs. Now James is facing this situation once again, and if he can't break it, then James has a good chance of becoming the superstar who has been swept 0-4 in NBA history, which will be a humiliating record for him.
The third bad news is the embarrassing record in the history of the Lakers, according to statistics, the Lakers have fallen behind 0-3 in the playoffs a total of 8 times, and all 8 playoffs have been swept out by opponents. Coupled with today's loss, the Lakers have been 0-3 nine times in their history, and if the Lakers can't win the next game, then James and his teammates will continue to set a playoff shame record in team history. In the next game, for the Lakers, this is not only a battle of dignity, but also a battle of honor, if there is no way to limit the Nuggets, then for the Lakers a 4-0 sweep is just a problem!
