Yeah. Once he got the ball knocked away the game was effectively done.

Nah, this is choking.

Lebron has a knack for chucking up low IQ 3s at the end of close games during pivotal possessions. Did something similar in one of the GSW losses. Needs to relax on looking for those stupid legacy shot looks.

Kobe?

Kobe is actually one of the worst players ever in the final possessions of games

You'd murder Curry for missing that 3 to tie....

So I said Game 1 will tell me a lot of things. I don’t think the Lakers can get another 40 pt game from AD and hold Jokic to 4-5 pts n the 4th. Still think 5 maybe 6 games for Denver

Except that isn't true at all. He has a 20-year knack for making the right play routinely in such spots (which is why idiots have criticized him for years and years for passing instead of shooting in the clutch).

He had an open 3 there to tie the game. He just missed it. I'll take my chances there given his propensity for clutch shot making in general.

Sure, but Curry hasn't made a big shot in his entire career in the playoffs. LeBron is probably the clutchest shot maker statistically in history (50%+). You're not gonna make 'em all.

If I block that ****ing dickrider on Twitter will his posts stop showing up when you mindlessly regurgitate his insecure drivel?

I'd rather listen to Quesadilla Joe talk about the broncos than see more goddamn handjobs from that one-note queer.

Were you not watching the last 15 minutes of game time where the Lakers upped their defensive intensity, moved AD off of Jokic, and completely shut Denver down for that entire stretch outside of some ridiculous contested prayers?

The Lakers had no business being in that game based on their first half and they nearly pulled it off. If I'm Denver, I'm worried as hell about what just happened there.

Pretty sure that won't work, no.

lol Barry is making those stats up. BTW Even with AD carrying Lebum it still wasn't enough.

But you think Jokic will routine go 30-20-10 with Murray dropping 30 and Bruce Brown drilling massive shots?

Because the game simply couldn't have gone better for Denver for 43 minutes and they were still a James make from losing that one.

I'd leave that game a LOT more concerned than I entered it if I'm Denver.

Except they are didn't make up any of them. Look them up on basketball reference, they are all there for everyone to see.

Steph is literally one of the biggest chokers in the history of basketball.
