On April 30, Beijing time, in the fierce matchup in the first round of the NBA playoffs, the Los Angeles Lakers lost to the Denver Nuggets in the G5 game, ending their season journey with a total score of 1-4.
Although LeBron James had 30 points, 11 assists and 9 rebounds with an injury, he was finally beaten by Murray, and the Lakers' season came to an end.
As soon as the game began, the Nuggets' Murray showed his scoring ability and kicked off the game with an open three-pointer. The Lakers, led by James, quickly took the lead with a small 8-0 surge. However, at the end of the first quarter, the Lakers suddenly fell into a scoring drought, and the Nuggets took the opportunity to score 10 points in a row to achieve a score overtake.
In the second quarter, the Nuggets' shooting percentage declined, and the Lakers seized the opportunity to regain the initiative in the game. But Pope returned to the locker room with an injury, casting a shadow over the Lakers' prospects. At halftime, the Lakers took a narrow lead.
In the second half, Davis injured his shoulder in the confrontation with Porter, and although he was able to continue the game after adjustments, the Nuggets came back with a small 9-0 surge. Davis had to go back to the locker room for a check-up, which made things even tougher for the Lakers.
Entering the final quarter, the competition between the two sides entered a white-hot stage, and the score has been tight. The suspense of the game was maintained until the last moments. James made a kill at a crucial moment and hit both free throws to help the Lakers equalize. But Murray's mounted archery scored two points to complete the final kill against the Lakers.
James' stats are still gorgeous, with 30 points, 9 rebounds, 11 assists and 4 steals, which is enough to help the team win in any game. Davis also contributed 17 points, 15 rebounds and 4 assists, Reaves 19, Russell 14 and Hachimura 15, but their efforts ultimately failed to translate into victory.
The Nuggets' Jokic contributed a quasi-triple-double of 25 points, 20 rebounds and 9 assists, Porter scored 26 points, and Murray scored 32 points, including the killer shot, which became the biggest contributor to the Nuggets' victory.
Although the Lakers' season is over, James' performance is still impressive. Whether he can win the championship again in his future career and catch up with Jordan's legend has become an unknown.
