I didn’t feel like it was a one sided game. The Nuggets had the lead the whole game but they never got too far out of reach. LeBron even had a chance to tie it with a 3 late in the fourth. Both teams shot excellent from the field. It was a great game to watch. It had everything you’d expect. The big difference in the game was rebounds. The Lakers need to step it up on the boards. They can’t be outrebounded by nearly 20 and win.
Thought earlier that its one sided game but lakers slowly eating the lead until they make the lead of Nuggets to single digit. But they caught off guarded as the time nearly ends since if they could just sustain that energy on early part of the gane well maybe they will not get dominated by Nuggets on game 1. But for sure they learn a lot from thus so they need to be more aggressive and exert more effort on defense since provably they can take the win on game 2.

It's really hard to sustain that kind of comeback though, yeah, they cut the lead into single digits, and as low as 5 points if I'm not mistaken. But it just took one mistake on the Lakers side and then the Nuggets capitalizing on it.
Yes, it was a game between Jokic and Davis, but Murray has a good game and that fast hands to tap the ball and steal the ball from James, that was one hell of a defensive play for him and I think that its the crucial play of the game for the Nuggets.
