The Denver Nuggets maintained their impressive postseason record in the Western Conference finals by dominating the Los Angeles Lakers with a lead of 3-0. Jamal Murray put on an incredible 40-point performance with the assistance of Nikola Jokic. Jokic scored 24 points total, including a critical 15 points in the fourth quarter. Murray had an incredible first half, scoring 30 points and giving the Nuggets an early lead over the Lakers.

Even though the Lakers were disappointed, LeBron James, their star player, remained focused on the tasks at hand. The Lakers need to win game four in Los Angeles if they want to keep their chances of winning the championship alive. Meanwhile, the Lakers’ boss makes a bold claim, instigating reactions from NBA fans.

The Los Angeles Lakers’ coach makes a ‘delusional’ claim

The Denver Nuggets are on the verge of securing their first-ever appearance in the NBA Finals following a remarkable 119-108 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers. Denver has established a dominating 3-0 lead in the Western Conference finals, positioning the team well to approach a historic milestone.

The Lakers now face a herculean task if they wish to progress to the NBA Finals. They must overturn NBA history as no team has ever come back from a 3-0 deficit in an NBA playoff game. The defending champions now struggle to keep their chances of winning the title alive. Meanwhile, it seems like the Lakers coach, Darvin Ham is in denial as he still has hopes for the Lakers.
