Davis and LBJ got their's, but they shut down Reeves, Russell and the rest of the roster. 8 straight wins over the Lakers. That's why Denver will be hard to beat.
The officiating bias was absurd and I hope some of the national guys like Zach Lowe and Bill Simmons will mention it. The Nuggets shot 6 free throws the entire game. Jokic was grabbed and hugged and pushed throughout the game all in the act of shooting. Somehow, only 6 free throws. The Lakers shot free throws on multiple occasions on questionable touch fouls. Fortunately, the Nuggets won anyway due their vastly superior talent.
I really hope the Lakers lose this series so I don't have to see this crap anymore this season.
