After the game, a lot of fans took to Twitter to react to the outcome of the game. One fan suggested that this loss disqualifies LeBron James from the GOAT debate and that it’s disrespectful to compare him to Michael Jordan. LeBron James put up 23 points and 12 assists in the game but shot only 33% from the 3PT range and 42% from the field.

There’s no doubt that this was a tough loss for the Los Angeles Lakers on their home floor. Many expected them to win this must-win game, but it is clear that the team simply didn’t have enough to beat the high-powered Denver Nuggets offense. Jamal Murray notably had 30 points in the first half, and it is clear that he was the key player that propelled the Nuggets to a win.
A 3-0 comeback has never been done before, but even if the Lakers do end up losing this series, this was a solid season for them. They managed to get to the Western Conference Finals despite playing with a new team after the trade deadline, and that is commendable. Next season is the key one for them, and that is when they should have true championship expectations.
