No Jokic or Murray

If we lose this

classic trap game

lakers will still lose

Need this team to make me a believer

We can't keep a 20+ point lead and still can't close out quarters

Bro so many games we go up huge and then have these 2-5 minute stretches where nothing goes right lmaooo

it's so annoying lol

Deadass gets me heated even when we up 15-20 cuz im just thinking “we should be 30+” lmao

Handled business how we should have

Lakers are now the 3rd seed

Lakers next 6 games

JJ Redick gave credited to Jarred Vanderbilt and Jordan Goodwin for leading the way defensively tonight.

"You felt them when they were in the game. They led some big runs for us."

JJ Redick said Luka Doncic having so much early success against Denver’s reds (switching) led to the Nuggets having to adjust and start to fire (aggressive blitz) him, which then led to a ton of wide open 3’s for teammates, which they largely converted.

JJ Redick on Luka Doncic's performance in the first quarter (21 points): "This is kind of what he does and what he's done throughout his career."

JJ Redick on home court advantage in the playoffs: "Yes, we would all love to have home-court advantage. Our group has been awesome at home."

Gabe Vincent on Luka Doncic:

"Sometimes teams send three guys at him. It's just amazing how he finds the open man time and time again. He makes it easy for us."

Luka Doncic on finding his rhythm inside the arc:

"I think when I drive the ball, it gets better for everybody on the court. So I wanted to start that way today."

Luka Doncic agreed it's easier to play at home and credited the fans for being so great during this stretch.

Luka added that he feels the energy from the crowd, especially when he hits crazy shots.

"It just gives energy. Not just for me, but the whole team."

Luka Doncic on hitting the logo shot: "When I hit one of those, I know the crowd goes crazy."

Luka Doncic on the Lakers' defensive turnaround: "I think everyone's connected on the defensive end."

Luka Doncic on his comfort level with the Lakers: "It just feels like getting into a new home. Coming here, trying to build a new home and I'm getting more and more comfortable."
