nuggets

haven't really found their rhythm but they still connected here early Gabe Vincent in the game haimura allows it Fly got three Lakers number two in shooting in the NBA this season Gordon climbs the ladder on Murray's special delivery James somehow makes it work, he massaged that one on the ball move, leading Reeves to challenge Jackson SS and scores joic back cwell Pope, yeah , a three give and take, Reeves denied the long arm of the law, Watson Davis takes it in the young man throws it Davis rejected it is Watson Justin is on vacation in the game for Denver Reeves goes to the glass for two can you explain your level of trust in yic when he gets into early foul trouble to stick with him his normal minutes?

Well, he is one of the smartest players I have ever met, he knows that he has two faults. Reeves ahead, breaks contact and then takes advantage when the holidays take their seats. They are less efficient with Jic off the court while LeBron James tries. to take care of Aaron Gordon Murray James' help got a piece Murray gets it to get off the offensive board Chuck clicks four James stumbles to the rim but finishes, there's Gordon trying to work on dwy gets to the point and missed it but has been a threat on the offensive glass Jackson tries to make it happen left-handed sweep hook Dy makes his move Baseline Push backhand no Davis is there Denver's bench is one of nine Jackson made the shot the cut Brown Banks it in and a wild foul attempt for Chris CHR Brown and a chance for three cwell pop digging in defensively nice fake LeBron ends up with the left five turnovers now for Denver Vincent hits the jump shot, so now they're getting some production from others Murray using the body Murray cans it from the outside Porter using that size Reeves falls falling while joic Russell lets it fly too hard he overcooked it and a difficult shot right there great competition for ball movement from kcp leads to joic who lowers it and Denver cuts it four James challenges Murray throws Davis with the downward shot and right there it seemed that they came out in a somewhat Denver Zone on that play Murray Second Chance and he takes advantage of it jic throws it in quick steps in steel James drives, goes to score Gordon got it late cheerful attacks against Reeves' floater no tip Gordon has been everywhere in the offensive class look Denver didn't play so well the lowest scoring deficit at halftime in this series, so they have to feel good and from the beginning Murray with an easy two from the jump shot with the dribble goes for Austin Reeds Reeves brushes the rim down the court well ahead of the group and we are all tied at 55, they are one of 14 from three-point territory and that one goes for Michael Porter Jr and he got nervous when Michael's teams just got a big lead inside Gordon.

Tremendous angle for Aaron Gordon. He knew exactly where he was underneath. Davis connects and the outside of that rist looks good in that quarter of a game. Give up Gordon hanging on the Backline and spins him into Porter dealing with the first wave, it's Gordon again reverse double team style comes from Russell leaving Murray open Money James lost it defense by Calwell pop yic bounces off perfectly Murray leaves him Gordon he hits it James roller Davis hangs and HCK a great two-man play from behind in Murray turns connect from the outside now Denver can take a double-digit lead they are nine of 11 from the field in the fourth calwell pul jab and jumper the pace they had a great rhythm in the first quarter Davis gets into the assist from LeBron James did it right there Davis shot for the two James turns attacking and turns it to Denver's advantage is Murray rebounds it again and again is Gordon yok gets the rebound throws it up and in plus one 24 for Gordon 20 for Murray Jackson Bullseye Denver has gotten what they want inside outside of half court transition they are shooting 68% in the third put it on the board for joic I think joic heard you about his game, you know, he doesn't score much right there running down the court and Jackson having trouble with his left hand 10 seconds apart shot clock again clock Davis comes in for two Anthony Davis was playing determined on the offensive end James knocks down the jumper 8377 early fourth Porter his jumper Jackson fell hard as he stepped on Davis Watson's foot with a soft T-touch.

Porter turns and recovers it seven per shot. Porter stands up and hits Brown. He takes it to Reeds for two very assertive and strong athletic moves inside Porter. waves of defenders who misses the fade Tracked by Prince goes to take it and throws a three Prince takes it hard to the hoop joic outside Porter steps back J that's impressive impressive that's the truth right there Russell and Reeves are a combined four of 18 from the field James got him a three Coldwell Pope hits the cutter joic makes his way for two and that was a fantastic cut right there and Porter shoots bulley and the alcohol rains here at crypto.com Arena and obviously with Los Angeles knocking down, not knocking down three, Denver packing the paint yic gets him to go and commits a foul, he really can do it all and he continues to prove it game after game and all he cares about is winning, that's all.

James takes it to the hoop and shoots it Reeves against Caldwell Pope very proud Defender Reeves gets the rebound Murray hits joic on the move for two Denver won the first game 114 to 103 they took the second game in dramatic fashion 101 to 99 in Murray's winner Davis places with 58.1 remaining Denver comfortably in front double team Murray was eliminated Murray gets a piece Prince assured Reeves jumped three James shot tried to go to the bench and Reeves is there to continue 107 to 1225 seconds left James drives to the hoop and scores the seconds finals Reeves lifts the hits and Reeves will dribble the clock the nuggets are rolling and take a 3oh lead in the series
