Lakers just took game 2 from Denver. Anthony Davis' super 3-point clutch shot was just right hooped in the hole before the the clock ends. Wasn't expecting that he will actually make it.

I don't think even the Nuggets expected him to take that shot. I didn't watch the post interview so I'm not sure if that last play was designed for him. If so, it was bold of the Laker's coach to take that risk but when you consider the fact that it'll be hard to block Davis due to his height and his ability to shoot from the outside, maybe it wasn't a bad idea even if the shot didn't go in.

Tough luck for the Nuggets but we know what this team is all about by now. They'll grind it out each game to get the W and maybe the series.

In my views and opinion. That play was designed for AD because :
1. He scored the last 10 points down the stretch.
2. Heat check? Yes he's on fire and the concentration and momentum was there.
3. If AD will move towards the paint, it would be difficult because Jokic was there and Plumlee is guarding him. So, what's the easiest shot selection? Yeah behind the arc.
4. As you can see from the replay, every Laker hasn't moving that much even LeBron wasn't moving. Noticed Green cutting towards the paint? That's to split the defender.
Bottom line, the blame will be on Plumlee for not keeping his body to AD that leads to an easy inbound pass and a wide open jumper. Jokic's block was late and doesn't bother AD's momentum.
