On April 26, the NBA playoffs, the series between the Nuggets and the Lakers moved to Los Angeles, which was the third game between the two sides, and the first two games ended with the Nuggets winning.
At the beginning of the first quarter, returning to the home game, the Lakers were full of momentum, Davis, Hachimura, and James all entered the state early, whether it was through scoring or relying on defense to create counterattack opportunities, a wave of 8 - The strong start of 0 made the Nuggets difficult to cope for a while, and then the Nuggets began to come to their senses, Jokic did whatever he wanted under the basket, using the layup to lead the team to open up some situations, James struggled to break through the layup and scored for the team to temporarily stabilize the situation, after which Jokic and thick eyebrows started a personal game, first Jokic scored two plus one, and then thick eyebrows dominated the restricted area to complete a two-handed dunk, and the Nuggets 23-33 behind the Lakers 10 points to end the first quarter.
Back in the second quarter, Murray threw himself and grabbed to force a shot, and finally made a second offensive rebound, James also used his back to turn around and score a layup under the basket, but the good times did not last long, Porter Jr. broke through to the basket and hit a layup, Aaron Gordon also went straight to the basket Jokic to complete a two-handed dunk, the difference was eroded to only four points, and at halftime, the Nuggets trailed the Lakers by 4 points at 49-53.
At the beginning of the second half, Jokic grabbed the rebound and sent a long pass, Murray received the ball and scored a layup in the face of the vacancy, the words did not fall, Porter Jr. hit three points, the Nuggets directly overtook the score, Davis did not hesitate to step forward when he saw this, and hit the half-volley shot steadily, but Gordon can also score a strong attack under the basket, the Nuggets continue to maintain the lead, Davis stood up at the moment of crisis, and scored under the basket after receiving the ball, but Murray's personal singles have a good effect and can always respond, as Reggie chases down and shoots three-pointers, the Nuggets lead to as many as 12 points, fortunately, the thick eyebrows scored a goal under the basket and led the team to temporarily narrow the differenceThe Nuggets led the Lakers by eight points at 83-75 to end the third quarter.
In the fourth quarter of the decisive battle, the Nuggets all five people on the defensive end contracted the basket, Davis couldn't find a helper, so he could only fight alone, and finally caused a foul with difficulty and walked to the free throw line, but Porter Jr. had no way to hit Rivers on the mid-range pull-up jumper, although James opened up on the outside and threw one of the few three-pointers on the team, but this was just a drop in the bucket, even though there were thick eyebrows in front of him and raised his long arms to defend desperately, but Porter Jr. made a good shot in the middle distance, and then declined, three and exhausted, and Jokic just did this, as he made a strong attack under the basket into two plus one, the game was decided in advanceThe final score was fixed at 112-105, and the Nuggets got the match point.
James and thick eyebrows scored 59 points together, and they have given everything they have, but they were finally overturned, which is really a pity, Russell didn't score a point, and I look forward to the next game to completely rebound, the Lakers are already on the edge of the cliff, whether the next game will go home or continue to leave suspense for us to witness together!
