Let's repeat it together : The nuggets are just the better team...
😢
You think so ?
Denver will repeat
The nuggets are a better team lol repeat
They will tie the series
Jokic came dressed as despicable me, Bron came dressed like training day. This a Halloween game?
😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Lmaaao
3:44 correcting the reporter as if it makes any difference 😂😂
3 little points 😂
TWO points in the 4th quarter. Nuff said.
Blowin bubbles on it💀
Sports 🏀 is gay

He prolly realized he couldn't win those bus riders
Lakers played as good as they did in any game this year, it’s just that the nuggets are better. They have a better bench and better role players. Even if you get a head start against them they still come back
Bruh everybody's been over-coming leads this season...you mf say anything.
@@dustinposey8476not against Denver lol
@@dustinposey8476shut it
The Nuggets have the worse bench in the NBA and only two guys on the whole roster that can even create for themselves. The Nuggets have the Lakers number because Jokic is so much better than the best player on the Lakers.
@@Youngster543210 you don’t know ball holy
Refs gonna have to step up their game....lebron needs 4x the foul calls to have a chance at winning.
😂😂😂
He needs to lebulldoze into the paint every possession and get the whole nuggets franchise fouled out
🤣
😂😂Bronians😢😢😂😂
Lakers lead 2pts in the 3rd quarter and lebron took a 3pts missed and thats the beginning of nuggets momentum.
im guessing its both Lakers Fatigue and Nuggets changing gears.
that high altitude home court advantage might be one of the best advantage for sports like basketball.
I'm surprised lakers wouldn't train for that high altitude. Damn bums
Lebron passed way too much in the 4th and some passes even turned into turnovers he needs to look to score when Russell is 1/9 from 3
No if you watched the game you’d know it was D Lo with the bad pass to Rui and then his missed layup under the basket swung the momentum.
There no momentum, denver is just better team,better team work,
That Leb 25pts, Ad 25pts, joker25pts and Caldwell pope 3 M3s hit hard on fanduel last night lmao 🤑
That’s a lock lol
C’mon media, ask him about his SEVEN turnovers. Or his disappearance in the 4th. COWARDS!! He’s gotta go. Awful performance.
Lebron been ass since he joined the lakers, idc how many stats he accumulates its a pattern that his game dont translate to wins
Agree
@@Heaveaway23My goodness stuff. are you dumb? Lebron been ass yet he won the lakers a championship and had them in the Western Conference Finals Last year? How are you ass but get to Western Conference Finals being 7th seed and have only ONE OTHER allstar. I need some critical thinking from you clowns
Not how goats 🐐 play
@@Heaveaway23well said. Stats on paper don’t translate to wins or having the it factor. It’s just not clicking, right
Lebron looking gangsta in the all black and chain. How about taking that gangsta mentality to the court on Monday.
Sounding like he knows it’s the end 😂
Good luck..
Ad can’t guard Yok and vice versa
The same way jokic can’t guard ad
@@Sportsfan-cm5upthats what vice versa mean😅😅
@@Chavanun555 ?
@@Sportsfan-cm5upLook up what "vice versa" means. Lol
and so it goes to who got better shooting percentage and better offensive rebounder and putbacks.
Anytime he’s ever thinking “here we go again” is when he’s on his way to talk to the media 😂
You better show up game 2
Loved the AG double pump dunk off the lebron lazy pass turnover!!
"We" when they lose. "I" when they win. Remember that folks. Remember that.
He always says We...
He never says “I”
18 points in 3rd what hurt them
They cut the lead to 6 in the 4th. Problem is LeBron disappeared when his Daddy Mike Malone told him to shut up.
LakerNation been saying it all year. We need a BIG to counter Jokic. We needed Javale and/or Howard. That's part of why we're able to put the clamps on these MFers back in 2020.
If Rudy Gobert couldn’t clamp him, what makes you think these guys will? I’m genuinely curious, this isn’t meant as an attack.
Lol 😆 🧹
Howard wasn't brought to LA but will Lebron go to Taiwan?
Dwight put the clamps on him in 2020. Thank ADs ego for Dwight Howard not being there.
Joker is a better player in 2024 than he was in the bubble and so is their team. They wore the Lakers down last night
King James it may be time to call it quits
He's no king.
@@michaelcambridge1542 his the best player in basketball that what it means
@@user-bj5yn3jg5n he ain't that either
@user-bj5yn3jg5n I never asked what it means though.
that watch is heavy geez!
Lebron you can try everything you can, but you'll never beat Michael Jordan basketball's trash nowadays who even wastes their time to even watch it Can't believe this popped up on my feed and I don't even follow NBA basketball
I already had him higher than mj by his 1st ring, lebron is doing way better than jordan did at 40, tf you on about
Jordan played weak competition
Honestly, just waiting for the end of this season to be on the Mind the Game podcast
“Bron,tell me how tough Denver, as a unit, for you guys in that series”
“Tough as hell, tough as hell”
Surprised he's not wearing a cast on both arms
The hobbling around thing may be too obvious.
Hell wait till the series is over
Nah....a full body cast should cover everything 😂
LeExcuse
laker played good we don’t need hit the panic button just yet … they just got stop been sloppy out there and not only that but we got to learn how to keep the momentum going so good job but just need to play team ball
Who y’all got tonight Devin Haney or Ryan Garcia?
Idk it would be nice to see Ryan win though especially after how his team did him after the Davis fight
@@josephjudah77good news, you got your wish.
@@cyberalpha6269 I didn’t expect it to go like that 😂
Lakers have NOBODY that can go get their own bucket. That’s their problem. No scorers
Yea get o. The phone go get lebron more help 23 hof teammates was never enough !! Give him 30 more hof players to save his weak ass career
@@Ciauskhaleesi there’s no career to save he’s solidified already. Weirdos like you try to make it seem like mfs can win without “help” that angle makes zero sense
@@Ciauskhaleesi23 hall of fame teammates? You must be high
Reaves can get his own buckets. He just has to look for his shot more. D Lo can as well but his shots weren't falling tonight. I wish Dinwiddie worked out better off the bench.
The lakers are fucking bad at getting the best out of their players, remember how good Christian wood, Dinwiddie, dlo were before coming to lakers ??
Ask him about how he felt at the end when he fell on his face.......
He fell on his elbow 😂
Say way you'd feel if you landed on yours dumbass boi...kinda question is that 🤡...Denver just now start winning last season,and yall act like they've been dominating for years... bandwagon riding ass 😭😭😭
@TheLirJEt86 Either way, good for him. Gordon wasn't having him bullhorn him in the chest with his elbow so he pulled the chair out from him. Good for Gordon. They play psychological defense on Lebum. They know his antics.
"KING KONG, AINT GOT SHIT ON ME!"
Also play Jaxson Hay more in third quarter and fourth quarter how come Jaxson clean 🧼 up on offensive rebounds and defensive rebounds plus Jaxson can score at Will in the paint plus make free throws
Its gonna be the same people saying GOAT when he turns this series around smh. Flip this shi LA
Channelling Denzel huh 🎉game 1 only training day 😊
Lmao
He's scared. You can feel it. Just like in he's always been in on the big stage. LeBron isn't clutch, he can't get it done in the 4th and we all know it.
Its on Lebron. He cant have an ordinary game and expect them to beat the defending champs.
He was missing the whole 4th quarter
The "bright lights" are for the biggest stars... Expecting DLo and Reeves to go off won't win them this series forget the championship
I think its more on the others besides Lebron and AD. At 39 yrs old Lebron scored 27. Guys like Russell and Reeves have to step up and help the stars
This team is going nowhere if it hinges on a 40 year old man to have extraordinary games. And it won't because it's too reliant on him
AD bailing out Lebron wasn't enough this game.
@@Jake4Truthjust like in 2020. lechoke is straight trash when it matters most
@@_clownworld lmao won a championship and finals mvp in 2020 what are u talking about lmao
4:09 Shaquille O'Neal boldly claims rival players 'don't fear' LeBron James like they did Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan... but opinion leaves fans split as some claim NBA icon has 'zero idea'
The only way the Lakers will win the next game and the games after is by getting buckets. A 12 point lead ain't shit for the nuggets. Lakers need to get buckets on every possession
Lakers better have a good third quarter next game
Honestly Lebron disappeared in the 4th quarter he gets his points in the first half and doesn’t care after that
Bro just admits openly that there was no new game plan. Darwin Ham is a complete and utter clown…
No game plan is a game plan..lol! Facts tho!!
The problem was rebounding and missed threes on the lakers part the shots were there they just couldn’t go down
At the end of the day this is a 2 seed vs 7 seed lol. Historically 2 seed has rarely lost this matchup. Playoff upsets are just hard in the nba.
I need dlo and reaves to stand behind and get some threes up after every game because they need to be in rhythm like how taurean prince ain't scared to take and make some shots
Sloppy it’s that simple Lakers played way too sloppy. They had double the amount of turnovers. They kept making these errors that you can’t make in the playoffs like the turnovers, careless, reckless basketball game,, it was theirs for the taking I mean, Denver wasn’t playing that great Murray was having an off night, game one lakers beat them selfs. After that 8-0 run it was over. I really believe Lakers can win this series just clean it up and Russel and Reaves need to shoot better and Rui needs to shoot more like he needs like 10 points russel and Reaves need at least 30 combined and Gabe Vincent and Din, need like 15 combined, AD and Bron need 60 combined
"My guy D'Angelo was playing for the Nuggets. Dude be Nick Young'ing me in the playoffs. " - Lebron James, after the game.
Even with the refs in your pockets, you still get beat. Shades of last year. Fouled the nuggets all night and got away with it. This is your GOAT
Shut the hell up with that "Refs in your pocket" bullshit. You argue in bad faith. Fake MJ 6-0 punk.
Get Rui and AR going and LeBron has to take care of the ball better and play less minutes. D'Angelo Russell has to remember how to play in the playoffs and step up.
He should retire if lakers dont win the championship
Instead of throwing up three 3️⃣ pointers when the three 3️⃣ point shots ain’t falling 😮
Lakers stop rolling up to the local playground asking who wants to join the Lakers...!
Damn man bron getting old but hes a legend!
Lets go Lakers , Dinwiddie and Gabe invisible, invited off bench , cant commit?
LeBron funny he said he never been on a champion team that's hasn't played additional detail... 😂😂😂 J.R. Smith
The Joker and Murray dont have to play D on anyone, easy series for Denver, 4-1.
he basically said I'm too slow and should retire
That pop up and shoot is deadly for the joker
Ok. Great mindset to have LeBron. But a lot of the fans are feeling a little doubtful at this time, so idk.
But Salute to you for having the right mindset to win. So we will see how it goes from here on out.
Lakers only chance is if LeChoke sits and lets the lakers play. Dude is trash
The lakers gave up KCP… now KCP cooking they ass.
@@iamthegameprosniped them goofies out the gym 😂
Dude only care's about personal stat's at this stage in his career
Its ok legoat just keep on trying
Your only sunshine
GOAT of what? Whining and crying?!?!?
Ham should have work that entire bench , switch it up , every few minutes , Layups struggled, no amswer for that ? The point is Long and Lean , cant match the efforts , while MVPs rest ?
bro dressed like denzel in training day
Lebron is still really good but hes old. He cant carry a team any more. The legs arent there
He is overrated,hyped trash,7 to, 4qtr like in 2011 finals
@@petrakamilica5141 typical idiot. He is 39. Broke the scoring record, 4 championships and what is 9 finals? Won in the east and the west. Far from trash he's just old
Rest need to give at least 10 more free throws to the Lakers then it’s a balance game
I don't see Lakers winning a game in this series Nuggets are too good. They didn't even play great and still won handily.
D’Angelo Russel DID NOT defend. He is the reason why the 12 points lakers lead was cut short. His passes were poor plus he was double teaming. Lakers Cannot win if double teaming. Not with Denver. Ya cannot double team. Defend man to man, leaving no space. Let denver earn each bucket.
So make lay ups and set plays on blocks
Getting roasted for his fourth quarter performance is something that was NEVER said about Michael Jordan. That is why he IS the GOAT!!!
I thank LeBron James still is the greatest basketball player in NBA stop been jealous of LeBron James okay stop hating on LeBron James okay he just needs some help wins the games and the playoffs to okay
We need more free throws.
lakers always had more ft. see stats now den-6; lal-19 ... imagine that with AG and Yok in the paint with 6FTA???
The lakers have actually had more free throw chances in the past 9 match ups against the nuggets. 206 or something. Nuggets have less…
LA has the second most free throws (of any team) this season.
Giving up KCP was one of the lakers management mistakes..
The have too switch up who they are guarding
Nuggets are deep team but so are lakers... in my opinion lakers have just as much talent on their team but they don't utilize it as good as Denver does.
Christian wood not playing? Dlo is a 20 and 6 guy.. Rui can give you 20 any night, jarred Vanderbilt a lockdown defender. Austin Reaves is just as good as dlo id say but thats the story of the lakers they either trade young talent away or don't know how to get the most out of their players.
Zubac
Ingram
Malik monk
Kcp all good starting players who were traded because of lebron
Just three 3️⃣ point shots were hitting in the third quarter
Can't wait to hear about how the Bulls never had to play a team as good as the nuggets😂
They didn't but even more so jordan wasn't doing anything at 39 so...
I'll take 39 year old Mike over 32 year old lebron tbhlol
@@Heaveaway23 you'd take wizards jordan over 2016-17 lebron because you're slow. no other reason.
MJ more championships less time never lost
@@DarkShadowBlackz18 mj weaker competition. Solved the puzzle
LBJ and AD yaw played well the stars ⭐️ answer and showed up just tell the rest of the team yeah 👍🏾 they had a off night but not every game they gonna have a off game 😊
9 straight times getting beat by the same team. Gonna be 10 straight games tomorrow night. LeBron had 7 turnovers in this game
Wtf they gonna do with dlo mf was just on bullshit last night after this season they gotta let him ride off into the sunset bro like he was out there playing at the y or sum
only reason we lost is cause nobody but lebron could hit a 3. D'lo and AR will find the rhythm
If you all not making any threes 3
Then make as many two points shots which is a higher percentage shot than three 3️⃣ shots
Plus the layup would make it even better to shoot the three 3️⃣ point shot
After missing one ☝🏾 or two 2️⃣ three point shots attempt why not make a lay up 🔝 or a dunk as many as possible it’s goes down much easier than three 3️⃣ shot plus layups keep your shooting percentage up smh 🤦🏾♂️
The comments are intense, idols, it's only game 1. Lebron and the Lakers will figure it out. They controlled the game in the first half. It was expected that Denver would win, given the fact that they're #2 and the defending champs, plus the home court advantage. Dlo also played well in the beginning. Austin and Rui haven't shown up yet. You guys get bored so easily, it's obvious you just watch and don't analyze. Jokic and AD can't guard each other. Lebron is too smart for this. Momentum got the best of the Lakers and that's what they lost. The Lakers' bench is deeper compared to the Nuggets. Game 1 is always the base point for Lebron to adjust. l Just relax, this will be a long series.
It’s gonna be another sweep goofy casual
I really want to see the Lakers fight back but with the way that things have been going with nine losses in a row to the Nuggets* is there really much of a chance for the Lakers to win 4 out of 6 or better?
He doubted his ability to shoot and that is why he stopped shooting
I don’t wanna hear this shit get into beast mode lebron all this nice calm guy shit gotta go
Yall feel this Nuggets team is a joke... this guy is 40 and still ballin....If he was 10 years younger he would have dismantled this team by himself.... G.O.A.T...
You sound like a oldheads don’t do this bruh I’ve had enough of the mj and 90s fans
yeah and people in he l be getting ice water ! gtf outta here dreamer boy!
keep crying. give lebalco more free throws
Shoulda, Coulda, Woulda, Y'all Lebrick fans always come up with excuses when this bum lose in the playoffs.
That'd probably have some truth to it if prime lebron didn't help the 2011 Mavs become the second oldest team to ever win a ring😂.. oldest team ever is 98 Bulls
Does anyone else out there believe King James should be in VERY HIGH consideration for MVP?
Lebron needs to guard kadwel poke and ad has to guard jokic and rui has to guard jamal
Aye Hindsight in third quarter laker were just throwing up 3point shot attempts
News 🗞️ Flash
Get the easy buckets 🪣 hindsight 🫣 when shots from 3point line not falling “Make as many Layups Shots two 2️⃣ points is the best and most high percentage shots than the Three 3️⃣ point shots.” 😮
Here we go again dlo 😢
LeExcuses... Here we go. 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂 exactly
Didn’t even give one
A cold fourth, pouting, kicking it over and over again to cold D'Lo, despite lots more FT's put up by LA vs Den.
What excuse did he give? Did you watch the same video? People so corny
@@monicaraymond8784what did he say? That was an “excuse”? He seemed we missed shots. I don’t understand what excuse was given
Why tf are you taking less then 20 shots a game…
Dlo is cooked.
LeBron REALLY give no fuqs about losing ....
I'm a Laker fan for decades but the Nuggets is just a better team.
I can't listen to LeBron. 7 turnovers, mostly unforced, leading to easy baskets. NO ONE ever calls him out. That and Ham playing D Lo 41 minutes cost them the game. Ham is the worst coach in the NBA
The games is not over yet okay the Lakers going to wins some playoff ok
I’m the biggest bron fan, the lakers hooped the L was bron fault
Y'all need a center never should of gotten rid of javale McGee and Howard smh wouldn't have this problem Ad don't play center
Old ass gave the game away in the second quarter we all know Jokic is better than him at this point in their careers but Bron has to take it more personal does he want his last years to be Remembered by jokic completely owning him ?
Labron should start planning his vacation, because they GOING HOME!
I would hope you wouldn't give up yet normally but with the way the Nuggets have been able to handle the Lakers, it might be time to move on from hoping for the Lakers to make much happen or compete
Darvin Scam fault
Lebron is on the step stool, rope around neck, tree above, and about to be pushed by Jokic.
Overall yaw played well
Garcia won so im happy.
LBJ has no accountability
He needs to retire instead of damaging his legacy like this
