11 in a row is unfathomable. If they make it 12, that’s basically 3 sweep’s😭😭😭
Belt to ass.
Comment of the night 😂😂
GOAT huh? more like a goat
Le traveller 😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
In the last quarter the Nuggets didn’t seem happy at all to be doing this to the Lakers again lol. They have hearts too 😂
Yea they're very sensitive lol 😂
😂😂😂
hahahaha, i was about to say, they already gave 8-0 lead....but no.....
Legit🐐
Yeah, and if the Lakers got that lead I'm pretty sure Lebron always taunt on Denver players HAHA
The chemistry among Jokic, Murray, and Gordon is just INSANE. The Joker is great with his fundamentals and has a great vision, Murray can take a lot o shots and is a reliable option to go to for clutch shots, and Gordon is phenomenal in putbacks, rebounds, and deffending ANYBODY... This team feels like Spurs in Duncan era
LeChoke has pretty good chemistry too.
what's his fundamentals?
MPJ too. Those 4 are insane and will go down as a dynasty when its all said and done

@@clintbeamquillope3123 an old one rather, his first of many dated in 2007 lmao
Nuggets gives me the Spurs vibe when Duncan, Ginobili, and Parker were still playing.
And Kobe defeated the Spurs all by himself
I now feel horrible for betraying Spurs and cheering on Heat in 2013. I really thought Spurs was gonna win in 2013 because all their previous championships were odd number years. (lol yes, I’m weird). It’s okay, Spurs came back in 2014 😊 I loved Spurs but cheered for LeBron wherever he went, super loyal fan. Now I hate LeBron because he’s so annoying and political. Leave that off the court. ANDDDD, last but not least..leave the Lakers legendary to Kobe. Goodness gracious, go away.
@@nathannjan8314and SPURS were a dynasty after Kobe didn’t have shaq. 😂
@@ericphilen3433During Kobe and Shaq years, since 1997-2005, Spurs got 3 rings (1999, 2003,2005), they were already dynasty.
@@nathannjan8314 I think, I think Duncan has same amount of rings and NBA finals appreances as Kobe. And more MVP finals.
bron is definitely the goat. he did it all. swept in the finals twice, western finals and soon to be first round sweep. real goat right there
😂😂😂
“It’s just basketball”- Lebron James
Fr fr
@@SwaaaggyBSomeone desperately needs to say that to him the next time he cries about a foul 😂😂😂
Larry Bird is the GOAT
I really believe that Michael Malone and the Nuggets just having practice against the Lakers this series… Malone to his team...... “Let’s work on overcoming 20-point leads.” “Now we’re gonna let Jamal work on game-winners.” “Jokic get two fouls in the first so we can see how it looks when I leave you in the game” “Justin Holiday go work on some threes, I don’t care if you make ‘em.” “Alright now let’s work on what plays we should challenge.” “Who wanna be point guard this game?” " Lets lose game 4 so we can win back at home, make it look convincing". “Now let’s practice stealing a fan base’s soul.”
😂😂😂
AG playing point in the 3rd and 4th was so amusing.
Congrats on copying someone's tweet bot

Lebron wants to play with his son the same way he's playing with his father Nikola Jokic

ong as a warriors fan im laughing
Gordon and Porter Jr have improved a lot this season, especially Gordon. The chemistry and ball movement is ridiculously good. The Lakers will play for pride and try to take one game from this series and while they're capable of it, I'm not surprised at all if Denver manages a consecutive sweep. I'm going to say the Lakers will get that one win but who knows lol. I'm eagerly waiting for a Celtics-Nuggets final. Can't wait!
MPJ is the difference maker. Jokic, Murray and AG will almost always do their thing, but when MPJ gets hot, no one can beat the Nuggets!! 🙌

Aaron Gordon goin crazy, crazy 5 dunks in a row😮
It’s crazy even as a Nuggets fan, how many teams just don’t consider Aaron Gordon.
He's underrated and his style completely changed from his time in Orlando. He does work hard. He always dominates LeBron, maybe they got beef or something lol.
He was straight up big-boying Lebron & the lakers tonight. Facilitating, dunking, shooting, rebounding, defending… basically showing LJ how he should be playing as the team leader.
He is underrated, selfless and 💯 perfect to nuggets’ system

You know it, lebron doesnt play for lakers he plays for the camera and the stats
As a Nuggets fan I feel sorry for AD wasting his prime with all those bums.
I refuse to believe that they suck this badly, i think it has to be fckn Darvin Ham.
They just dont have big tall bodies its that simple. Outhustled every time. It covers jokic’s flaws
I think AD realized he made a mistake teaming with egomaniac Lebron some years ago.
Stop glazing AD, he had help in N/O and still couldn't carry a team to the playoffs
If these bums led by a real killer like jokic I can assure you they’ll do better
I hate how LeBum fans say "Lebron is the GOAT because he is STILL doing it at such an old age." But then... When the lakers lose, those same fans use the same 'age" arguement as an excuse.... Which one is it???? If longevity is the reason he is the GOAT, then LeBum shouldn't be getting swept in the first round
<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="176">2:56</a> Whether you see 4 steps or 5, we all agree it's a travel. 😂
Jokic is a terrific player. Best player in the world by far. Only took 13 shots but his impact in the floor is unmatched. Winning his 3rd MVP and 2nd chip after this postseason will put him in the tier of Hakeem and Steph as the only players who have a case for the top 10 all time. Credit for Gordon and MPJ too for being consistent this playoffs in offense and in defense.
His basketball IQ is off the charts and by far the best in the league ! My boy is a basketball machine and beautiful to watch
He played really bad tonight to be honest
As a Gsw fan I completely agree jokic is some serious and he top 10 bound easily and as a center its looking like #1

You Sir are The Man. His defense has been consistently atrocious and it destroys the entire flow of the game for the Lakers. They’ve been playing 4 on 5 defensively all year long. It definitely affects their offensive stamina and continuity. Bron is just scamming and statpadding trying to swindle fake goat recognition to those who don’t know any better.

i want to apologize to Denver Nuggets front office, coaching staff and Aaron Gordon for underestimating and looking at his fit with the team the wrong way. i totally miscalculated his value and contribution to the team when Denver Nuggets pulled the trade for him and was still skeptical of it... till today. i sincerely apologize for thinking he's just a dunker, and "nothing more". i see it now. well done for being the guy who does the little BIG things, Aaron Gordon. you are THE MVP of this series. not Joker. not Murray. YOU ARE THE MVP!
The poetic and overwhelming wonder is in the soul strings of the Denver Nuggets show players... it is a pure emotion to watch them play, a show, a continuous palpitation in the eyes that speaks to the heart. Thank you Denver and the NBA

It’s astonishing how quickly NBA fans go silent, even after just a minor event like a three-pointer from the opposing team. In Europe, the support never fades, regardless of the score.
Because most of people at the arena there go for fun, eat or be seen on tv. They are not real great fans of the team.
@@sergioa.9695 what are you saying? people sing the whole game because they are not true fans??

@@sergioa.9695 Americans are spoiled brats
True. In europe, some teams literally lose in certain arenas because they cant handle the noise and the craziness the fans make, especially in the playoffs
I noticed that Lebron was sloppy with defense against Gordon, which is why Gordon's dunks were all over. I smell sweep, again.
LeQueen always plays sloppy defense so he can start on the fast break before anyone else 💀 “WHAT A SLAM BY LEBRON!!”( wide open , no defender)

@SifuSeagal Really only 3.5 rings cause that bubble ring is hella tainted. The other rings are courtesy of Kyrie, Ray Allen, DWade & Draymond.
Denver Nuggets have the best team chemistry. No wonder why teams like them and OKC have dominated this season.

Some fools in the media actually had the Lakers winning this series in 6 games 😂😂
Don’t ever say that bum is better than Jordan or Kobe
He could never be better; HE HAS NO MIDRANGE. I watched this whole vid and saw him take , maybe 3 or 4 jumpers💀 he’s ASS
His nba persona will be hella awkward once he retires. All that hype for a 4-6 legacy and meaningless stats. It’ll be like Stockton and his assists record at the reunion ceremonies.
He is Better,.. Jordan and Kobe can't be compared to James.. Never
He ain't better than Jordan, for sure, but he is for SURE better than Kobe. 😅 LeBron of course ain't a GOAT. But man cracked the top 5 IMO. Something that Kobe never even came close of doing.
@@simbarashemwilambwe8004 Go To Bed!!!
After losing few games since the average player height, ham still put 3 guards on the ground. Nice coach
Jokic sets the best screens. He reads every double double that’s thrown at him. He finds the right guy every time. He passed the ball right into the perfect spot for his guys every time. His full court outlet passes are nearly perfect every time. It’s scary because when he’s not scoring, is when he really is at his best. Just an unstoppable force. The chess master.
My cousin is again crying in the driveway. Every other day LeBron let's him down I fear for his sanity
😂😂send that man to therapy asap cause it’s only gonna get worse lol
Funny that you haters still talk about LeBron when he is 39 and still ballin. Meanwhile Russell drops 0 points in 24 min 😂. Just shows how great LeBron is and how he lives rent free in so many heads.
hwhwhwhwhwha
To be fair LeBron at the age of 39 is not letting anyone down. The man plays great. It's just this Lakers team is not good enough
Don’t say lebron let him down.
What truly upsets me is that in 2020 the Lakers dominated this exact Nuggets team, minus KCP. That team was immediately disbanded. Dwight Howard and Javale McGee had Jokic in Trafalgar Law shambles while Murray was playing out of his mind. The defense of Dwight Howard gave Jokic tremendous trouble, due to Howard’s will to make the statement in his defensive role. No parade. Alex Caruso was replaced with a kid named Austin Reeves. The Laker bigs (Dwight, JaVale, and Boogie Cousins) were sent to basketball obscurity, and were replaced by an injury prone bench. Playoff Rondo was replaced with an original draft pick that didn’t work out the first time around as a Laker. The next 3 Finals were Suns v Bucks(‘21), Warriors v Celtics(‘22), Nuggets v Heat(‘23). I’m not upset and the greatest getting old. I’m not upset at Jordan fans taking shots in a loss. What pisses me off is that since 2017 it appears “the fix is in” on Lebron James. When Lebron left Miami and returned to Cleveland the “old” narrative began. Despite that, Lebron still remained a Finals contender and won in 2016, with no signs of slowing down. After which the Warriors and KD agreed to a deal that would have been vetoed by the previous regime due to viewership interest and competition. Despite the greatness of 2018 Lebron, the Warriors plus a healthy KD was unmatched. Lebron takes his talents to LA. I’ll save the “it don’t feel like LA really fw Bron” for another comment section. I will say this though - Lebron got to LA and almost immediately won his 4th ring. Kobe is at 5, Jordan is at 6. Does LA’s front office truly want to help Kobe’s rival achieve his 5th and 6th rings? For those that have made it this far in the read, I appreciate it. Please excuse the mental gymnastics. These arent excuses about the loss to Denver. This is my own thinking for why in one situation the NBA was allowed to become unwatchable for 3 seasons after the KD deal, and in the other situation a team purposely shot themselves in the foot immediately after their championship season. Does that 2020 team and/or similar pieces beat the unchampioned Bucks, Celtics, and Heat in the succeeding 3 NBA Finals. WITHOUT QUESTION, yes. But that would mean Lebron would be in a conversation all his own with 40k points and 5-8 rings. I’m not sure if an office of Kobe fans or a League of Jordan fans would sit back and just watch Lebron ascend past their childhood heroes and money makers. “Womp, womp”, “6-0” “Jordan only got swept when he was in his youth.” Yea, yea. Valid. I just wanted the reader of this comment to entertain the idea of Lebron’s ring count if the Warriors run it back straight up, and if LA truly appreciated him. LA loves ambassador of basketball Lebron. I’m not sure the LA front office truly is of the liking of Tom Brady Lebron. Tom Bron still has championship aspirations in basically enemy territory. You don’t have to be a fan of him. But a true fan of the game can see its dealings being made behind the scenes that usurp the purity of competition. “Bro is obviously a Bron fan.” I mean, yea. This is a fact. And the fact that potentially Lebron’s last championship team wasn’t even allowed to defend their championship will never sit right with me. Idk which is crazier….a 73-9 team calling Kevin Durant for help, or a front office and franchise doing away with being brought back to life by immediately getting rid of all but 2 players from their championship team immediately after their championship. On a team with a Kobe(5) office in a league of Jordan(6) fanatics. I’m afraid “the fix is in” on Lebron James(4). Thank you, reader.
Aaron Gordon was not in that 2020 Nuggets team Not to mention that Jokic, MPJ and Murray have gotten a lot better since then
@@MiguelSosa-oo6ww Aaron Gordon is the equivalent to Andrew Wiggins in this situation. A solid player in need of a system fit for him. AG wasn’t the superstar the Orlando Magic tried to market him as. He’s a high caliber role player like Wiggins when he replaced Barnes for the Warriors. And being honest, no. They haven’t gotten better. From their system to their players, Denver is like doing the same thing plus KCP and AG. Denver is performing well in this gambling era of budding superstars. The Lakers dismembered the team that went 4-2 against the Nuggets, and literally haven’t won since. Whenever his career comes to a close, someone has to discuss the sabotage purposefully done to Lebron’s teams by jealous/envious front offices
@@hyaashiredd So you think Jokic in 2020 is as good as Jokic is now?🤣🤣 Lakers fans are delusional. Gordon is also better than Wiggins in its role. MPJ is also better now.
@@MiguelSosa-oo6ww going by the emoji usage I can tell you’re not really hear for a basketball conversation. Providing information to the basketball heads reading this, look at Joker’s matchups against other big bodies or his Euro contemporaries. More specifically, look at games against Sabonis and Sengun. Jokic struggles with bigger bodies that can either offensively or defensively go back at him. Since 2020 Joker is still a right handed assassin, and Dwight Howard has used his time to get into “the best shape of his life.” Do I believe today’s Jokic would struggle against a big body that is in better shape than his 2020 self…yes. Basketball heads reading, please go look at highlights of Jokic’s matchups against the players I mentioned. Peace to your day.
When your team has lost 11 in a row to the world champion Denver Nuggets ..... Laker fans go into "back in the good old days" mode from their rocking chairs.
Lakers are onto something, they are figuring Denver out, slowly but surely. They should put Hachimura on Jokic, with AD lurking in the background and everything will be fine. Lakers in 7.

Series was over when Murray hit that buzzer beater
It was over before it started.
Series was over when they free throwed themselves over the Pelicans
Gordon is a beast, he is underrated.
Every basketball player knows how good it must feel for Jokic to have such a threat near the rim. You know that if you get the ball to him in the paint he s gonna grab those 2 points. Great teammate
80 points gordon is insane.
No Gordon is rated exactly right, cause he is in the perfect spot for him. He should have been the star for Orlando, but he got overwhelmed by the riducule, the Magic were at that time. In his last season with them, he had 13 pts or so. He is a great 3rd/4th option on offense, he hustles so hard. Right spot.
When you think of what MPJ has been through including the recent family stuff you have to be seriously impressed. I am a big fan of his and that jumpshot is smooth AF.
"it's just basketball, at the end of the day, it's just basketball" 😂 thats exactly what i say when i get shit on Warzone! hahaha
4-0 nuggets lmao cant wait for Leebran to leave LA
This part!!!
Watch Nuggets pull some funny shit like playing the bench next game 😂😂
They will still win

Back to back sweeps 🤯
A team with 2 top 75 players and a national team player will be swept by a team with just one all-star 😂
@<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="175">2:55</a> LeBron travels lol!! 4 steps to the basket 😂😂😂 Use playback speed at 0.25x
LeTravel
I thought it was 3 but fucking 4 steps to the rim. Wtf LeTravel chill with the steps.
Goat. Skillful. Can't believe a goat is that skillful as always 😂
The funniest thing, and at the same time the saddest thing, is that there is no need to slow down the playback speed of the video to 0.25 in order to see that LeTraveller took 4 (?!) steps before putting the ball in the basket. It's amazing that refrees did not called travells for this "walk"!
one of the proves that lebron doesnt have bag or go to move. he mostly just overpower with muscle
D.Russel played 24mins without getting any point! lol!
Damn. Nuggets really maximized Gordon's potential. I watched him during Orlando and they didn't know how to use him but Nuggets plays him perfectly.
Two Facts: The sweep is coming and Bron will never pass Kobe!!!!
How LeBalco is even mentioned in the same stratosphere as Jordan is beyond me.
i thought MJ is the goat and not Kobe :D
@@igorgusenko9110both are goat
LeQueen has no midrange game; Kobe and MJ absolutely feast on that middy jumper.
MJ 1a and Kobe 1b. "Which one?" This is the argument to have. MJ more fundamentally sound. Kobe higher single possession ceiling. Arguing about Lebron is a waste.
DLO single handedly solving the LA homeless problem

Lakers defense is just Pre-school level.
Denver fan here. Dont bash on LA. Not being as good as one of the best teams in history, doesnt mean they are bad. 2:43 that was a great anticipation by James, refs made a mistake, clear off foul
Their offense is even worse. There's no ball movement or anyone cutting and moving off ball.
yeah denver defense and offense simply too elite. This Lakers team will beat most of the playoff teams.
Nuggets showing that team play beats individuality.
What individuality? Jokić is better individually then any Laker. Plus better team player of course.
But the nuggets have BY FAR the better individualities WTF The thing is they also play as a team
@@brakesteel0034calm down man! 😂😂😂
@@ktmtxt isnt lebron still a top 10 player in the league and ad? XD 2 all stars cant defeat 1 all star team smh, when yall winning you feel so strong and good, but once you start losing yea then your role players are bad and come up with excuses, lebron should retire!!!
wait Murray not a all star level?@@kecman7318
0 points and 2 assists from D'angelo is crazy man... Give him LeHelp
One of the most interesting games especially in terms of the statistics. If we start from the end of the first quarter, LAL had almost all numbers on their side yet rebounds were kind of equal. At the same point of time, DEN took more shots that worsen their efficiancy ratio consequently. As the game moved on, numbers changed in favour of DEN. At the end of the game, both teams made the same number of shots. The only two measures made the difference, DEN had 30% more rebounds (that had some impact on number of fouls) and the both number and efficiency from the free throw line. In that category DEN had +7 which was the exact same of points DEN outscored LAL. So the conclusion could be the final score was the result of higher number of rebounds (both offesnive and defensive) and the efficiency of free throws. Another conclusion could be that LAL have had up to three players on that high level whereas DEN have had between four and seven. That has made a huge difference too thus far. The level of confidence presented through the pace of the offensive part of the game gives another huge reason to believe that DEN could make all the way and defend the title. If analyze the number of minutes each player spent on the floor and rotations made by the DEN coatch, congrats and salute Mike Malone would be right. Watching such games on three different screens observing game, team statistics and individual statistics provides in-depth NBA play-off experience. Another proof that small things can make a significant difference at the end.
Nice analyais. AD and Lebron can match Jokic and AG. Its the Lakers role players suck, they scored nothing.
This is your GOAT????😂😂😂😂
Can’t wait to hear his excuses like not 100% fit , foul calls , not enough help(when he the one who always builds his team) bla bla😂
In the second game: Misses a clutch three pointer, blames the refs. Doesn't take accountability, doesn't rally his team to be better. Gets smoked in third game. Wonder what it is this time 🤡
11-0 > 6-0

Pat Riley is absolutely right that LEBRON JAMES truly wasted a MIAMI Heat legacy because he supposed to win 4 to 6 NBA CHAMPIONSHIPS with DWYANE WADE in MIAMI and beat the Warriors in Finals with his MIAMI Heat in year 2015, 2016, etc. instead of leaving MIAMI Heat for Cavs & Lakers. Lebron’s championship ring with Wade in MIAMI supposed to be 2012, 2013, 2015, 2016, etc.
