The Lakers’ journey has been fraught with challenges, each game feeling like a monumental struggle against a resilient Denver team that capitalizes on every mistake. But the Lakers’ troubles have been exacerbated by their own shortcomings. One bad dribble, one missed assignment, or one whiffed box-out has often led to Denver’s swift retaliation.
Four of Denver’s starters scored 20 or more to nullify a 33-point and 15-rebound game for Davis. Jokic amassed 24 points, 15 rebounds and nine assists. Jamal Murray added 22 points and nine assists. Aaron Gordon chimed in with 29 points , 15 rebounds and three assists. As the Lakers aim to stave off elimination in Game 4, the spotlight intensifies on James, whose legacy as one of the greatest players of all time faces scrutiny amid the team’s struggles. A sweep at the hands of the Nuggets would mark James’ fourth playoff series loss by sweep, a rare blemish on an otherwise illustrious career.
The Lakers are 27-25 in Western Conference games. Los Angeles is 20-25 in games decided by at least 10 points. TOP PERFORMERS: Davis is averaging 24.7 points, 12.6 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 2.3 blocks for the Lakers.
