Congrats Nuggets Fans!

Lakers fans: is it just me or were those last two inbounds plays kind of dumb?

Mark Jackson, Stephen A Smith, and Jeff Van Gundy all on suicide watch as we speak.

Mark Jackson is probably in the bathroom washing his mouth out with soap for
acknowledging Nikola Jokic.

"Actually, I remember one time, we were playing against Denver, Conference Finals,
and it was 3-0 to the Nuggets. And LeBron said, 'Guys, if you think we are good,
let's prove it now.'"

"Did you come back?"

"Of course not. 4-0."

Should the NBA have the Lakers and Nuggets redo their series in case it was a big
fluke?

No disrespect to the Nuggets, I'm a firm believer that Denver sweeping them is a
huge fluke and robs the Lakers of truly accomplishing what their capable of. I've
spent the last few days in pure disbelief and it just doesn't make sense to me.
I've spent the entire regular season watching the Lakers play great basketball it's
just not fair.

If the Lakers lose again I will face that the Nuggets deserved the win, but I am
just 100% sure it was a fluke and does a big disservice to the Lakers and the NBA.

Respect to this Lakers team for not phoning it in after going down 0-3. This team
deserves their flowers for even reaching the WCF with a roster built after the All-
Star Break.

Respect to the Lakers for fighting hard until the end. A play-in team that once had
a 0.2% chance to even make the playoffs made it to the conference finals and lost
to the 1 seed. Can’t hate on that
