Los Angeles Lakers Team News
It looked like the Lakers found a solution for the Nuggets in the first two matches, especially in the defensive segment and the defense on Jokic. Rui Hachimura proved to be a great fit who can defensively match Jokic, both in speed and strength, however, Murray appeared who played G2 and G3 like in a trance and led Denver to victories.
The Lakers did not have a single loss at home in this playoff and it was expected that they would continue that winning streak, based on everything seen in the first two games in Denver, where they performed very well and were just a little short of reaching the break. In G3, they lacked width and help from bench players, primarily from Russell and Schroder, who scored a combined 8 points and spent 25 minutes each on the floor. Davis and James delivered their points, but it was not enough because the Nuggets were in a very good mood on the other side.
Denver Nuggets Team News
Denver is one step away from fulfilling its big goal, which is a place in the grand final. According to everything shown this season, they absolutely deserved to be there. The best team from the West that has not yet been defeated at home in this playoff. Although in the first two matches of this series, the individual qualities of Jokic and Murray achieved victory, in the third game of this series, Denver significantly shortened the rotation and with a team victory reached the break and a huge 3-0 in the series.
How much they played as a team is best shown by the game of MPJ, who assisted and played for the team and not for himself, as we are used to from him. Jokic played one game where he didn’t have a triple-double at the end, which is a real rarity. The third match was dominated by Jamal Murray, who scored 37 points and led Denver to the break and victory.
