a good
idea game
three lot like game one man that’s how
you go to work right there this one the
Joker okay uh cuz in game one and game
two the Lakers had double digit leads by
12 in game one by 20 in game two lost
them both you know we thought at the
beginning of the game when they came out
with all those energy it was going to be
a rough night for the
Nuggets uh think
again LeBron oh muscle on his way inside
but they have a way okay as you see ad
go to work inside you they have a way of
just uh man just reing you in and just
walking you down just punish him on the
offensive glass man that was beautiful
oh go for that steel won’t you Joker all
by his Lonesome inside you go for that
steel and don’t get it brother it’s not
a good
time LeBron up top to
ad who had 16 at the half and at the
half the Lakers up 5349 but it all
turned in the third quarter when Denver
rout scored him
34-22 oh don’t leave that boy open
Michael Porter
Jr the the thing about Denver is when
they get bigger and you get smaller they
can defend small and they actually still
more athletic than but it’s just man
Aaron Gordon 29 and 15 for Aaron Gordon
career off me man postseason get off me
little King oh now he’s a little King y
24 15 and N man look at this dude shoot
that ball nuggets definitely came to
play everybody played well for the
Nuggets LeBron you know Ernie at no
point that I thought think I said to
half I think the Lakers was going to win
this game come on little oh come on big
oo big big honey big honey is wo boy 103
9 at that point 112 105 is How It Ends
by the way teams up 3 nothing are 151
and0 in series well it’s going to be a
rough day for Danel little russle Tom
Mar Laker team did Crispy Cream didn’t
he a Laker team that was 33 and five
when leading at the half this year third
best Mark in the NBA 0 and3 now in this
series against the Nuggets here’s Darvin
ham Darin clearly a strong start where
did you start to see the the energy or
whatever it was that got away from you
flipp in this game and what did you
think the main reason was uh just in the
second quarter uh we have some you know
we we had some good looks that we just
didn’t go down um they got loose they
saw something go in um and it carried
over into the third quarter so um good
point blank shots for guys they’re off
missing shots that normally make and
that’s the way the game goes to make a
Miss league and you know
when you can’t get a bucket and they’re
scoring they’re on the run you know it’s
it’s tough like we we we we have to keep
the scoreboard moving coach what is your
level of anger and or disappointment
because you couldn’t accomplish those
things that you were just trying to I
mean you just you just got to put guys
in a position where they you know they
they they’re in their sweet spots they
getting looks and again just hope
they’re in a good Rhythm and things go
down you know for a little while there
we had only made one three and long long
time that we only had made too uh we
guarded their three-point line well um
the offensive rebounds definitely played
a part for them and and those guys
getting themselves together getting back
on balance you know giving up second and
third opportunities for them to get
Buckets get look get good looks at The
Rim uh but you know you just you have to
attack each possession you have to be
competitive have competitive pride and
attack each possession you know you
going to miss shots but you got to move
on to the next play one thing about this
team that we’ve been really doing very
good at over the last couple of months
is having a next play
mentality um moving on to the next play
giving multiple efforts but you know
it’s tough it’s tough we got to figure
out a way to get one on Saturday to stay
alive a game away from a second straight
sweep at the hands of the Denver Nuggets
who sha over the last two years they’ve
got 36 wins now when they were down
double digits what allows them to be
comfortable in that situation and not
and not panic well because of last year
they definitely have the championship
mentality and they just they just play
well together you know my favorite
player tonight was Aaron Gordon might a
little bit of serc sabalo you’re not
going to get your play call you just got
to go out there you know like you said
in the interview do whatever it takes
for the you know team to win and listen
right here offensive rebound and listen
this guy in Joker Jamal they did what
they supposed to do but look at the stat
sheet other Michael Porter 20 other
Aaron Gordon 29 other kavis cell pop
Five Points and they just play well and
then what I love about their
Championship mentality no Panic first
two games down double digits Lakers came
out to a fast start you look at those
guys Mike Mike Malone’s not panicking
the team’s not panicking and they just
keep chopping you down they have three
guys with at least 20 and 104 with 20
plus in this game you said you wanted to
ask the jet a question when you have a
broken Spirit how you get motivated for
the next race or the next game well
firstly you always have to have a
delusion of grandeur regardless of wins
and losses you always feel that you will
win the next game contest yes so for for
for um for the Los Angeles Lakers now it
becomes a not let’s win this series
let’s show the world we still have a
prideful team that we will not not get
swept in our home court to end the
season two years in a row by the same
team then if you get one then you start
talking about can we be number one the
first team that can win a series I
mean you have to be delusion well that
that’s the answer you have to be
delusional well that’s so you going to
keep running to the board till you
win you know Ernie Ernie I I I am
shocked right now you know I said before
tonight I said I would be totally
shocked if the Sixers and the Lakers did
not win and my Sixers came through but
what disappointed me about the Lakers
there was no point in that game you saw
desperation or you thought they were
going to win the game it it it’s like
they had like we’re going to lose this
series
40 they were playing like it was a
scrimmage in my opinion but at no point
do you see that game that you say they
were playing with desperation well Shaq
said they were going to win by seven at
half time and actually hit the number on
the head again yeah second
but but because we were he knew that
because what we were talking about at no
point did you think Denver was going to
lose that game the Lakers were like man
they don’t realize they’re down two zip
cuz you see you saw it with Philadelphia
man they were playing they were all over
the place with great energy at no point
when that game got close at the end of
the first quarter I like man cuz I said
I said I think the Lakers going to lose
this game and and I don’t know going in
if you would if you would have told me
hey Denver’s going to be up in this
series 3 nothing nobody thought that but
I wouldn’t have looked at you and said
you’re crazy that’s not possible but the
way they’ve done it by trailing by
double digits in each of these games
that’s what surprises you know you Kenny
talk about delusion I actually thought
this was going to be a great series I
really did I did I I did I thought this
I said man this going to be a six or
seven game series and they have taken
their heart away they and they not going
to say anything I Ernie I really did I
said y man they going to have a tough
time to the Lakers but they are stole
their heart and pride you know one thing
you have to have when you play The Champ
you have to have that killer instinct
and we we thought in first two games
with the double digit that Lakers was
going to put their foot on their neck
they did not and tonight they didn’t
have that killer instinct and down 03
and what were we talking about in the
pregame show we’re talking about the
fourth quarter performances when you
were looking at Anthony Davis and and
LeBron James and when you look at it
tonight Anthony Davis who had 30 points
and 11 rebounds through three quarters
uh three points in the fourth quarter of
this one just three yeah but I I think
that’s deceptive to be honest with you
Ernie three is not deceptive no no
because they were down double digits he
play well they he after like the game
was not close in the fourth quarter like
that other game was they were down 12 13
points so it wasn’t like if if it was a
close game and they didn’t go to ad like
eight eight going to the fourth yeah
yeah but they got down 13 14 points you
never thought the Lakers was going to
win this game is my point like in in
game two AD should have got the ball but
that stat right there to me is it’s it’s
misleading because they were down 12
they got it down to seven or eight with
with 30 seconds to go that’s just window
dressing well it it it might be
deceiving but it’s accurate because
there is a no you know it’s accurate a
style of play that the Lakers are
consistent with what’s accurate is you
can’t go 24 minutes and not have one
point that’s accurate so who’s that
D’Angelo Russell need to step up 24
minutes and no point I’m not saying it’s
his fault I’m just saying he I mean
there’s a lot I mean for me I think he’s
a an
ancillary complimentary player yeah but
you can’t go 24 minutes in the playoffs
and not
score Shaq is 100% right you can’t go
all for seven in in a must-win game he
got the same points as me you and Chuck
tonight 112 105 that’s your final score
Denver Nuggets Up 3 nothing in this
first round in the 27 matchup and they
will try to close it out on Saturday
night that game will be on ABC that’s
exactly
right oh come on Mr Clean get that thing
Mr Clean man that body that’s my body
Eric Martinez that’s what Chuck looked
like in all
