A stronger bench and a more aggressive AD and we're up 3-1 right now.

This is a Coaching Stat. It shows his short comings in his organizational skills and blown leads reflect his inexperience

I'd love to see this stat on all of LeBron's playoff teams. My guess is that it's be about the same all the way through.

Their top player is better, unpredictable and very capable. They play with confidence late as well. That's what "teams" do when things are on the line.

^ This! Well said. Nail on the head.

It should also be mentioned in this context that Mike Malone is an extremely savvy coach, and he has his team execute his game plans in a very disciplined manner. Hard to beat coach.

Ham has been out coached so far.

We won one game at home because their role players — just like our role players dip in performance on the road — didn’t produce.

We’re going on the road. Their role players will perform just as well as ours did at home, probably better. So…

It’ll be up to Reaves, Rui, D Lo, Prince, Hayes, Wood, Vando, Christie to perform on the road like they do at home. The Denver role players will execute at peak performance.

If our role players don’t, this season ends with a 4-1 elimination tomorrow.

Whatever happened to Coach Rojon Rondo?

Rondo could have coached this team into the 2nd round.

A big chance they lose the next game making it a 1-4 exit. And, I hope it does happen like that. Players and Fans will remain furious to how incapable Ham is and force J. Buss to fire him. I have much lower interest to watch the game or even the highlights with Ham as the coach.

GAME 5 - on THT tonight @ 22:00 EDT

Their role players vs ours. The season rides on it.

If Reaves and D Lo can out score KCP and MPJ, the series might go back to LA.

Are we finally becoming a third quarter team again, they say?

Before we all kill Ham after tonight’s presumable loss, we’re holding them to low scoring. I’m really impressed with the defense of game 4. That’s where it needs to be from here on out. Keep it up.

Reaves needs to handle the rock to get in rhythm, so does D Lo.

If it is a close game and crunch time, please let Reaves have the ball.

Prince still kills me man...

Denver reminds me of the Kobe/Shaq team with clutch shooting and very minimal mistakes in the crucial 4th quarters. Horry, Fisher and Kobe then, and now Murray, MPJ AND KCP.

here goes Dlo getting cold

get AD out of there Ham

And so another season ends early.

The team needs big and bold changes. I have no faith ownership want's anything than a reboot with a different 3 wheel...

2 fouls on that final play

Lakers left some points on the table with missed FTs.

In fact with 6 or 7 minutes left in the game they were in the penalty and could have attacked the paint more.

Some missed opportunities, Lebron trying to push the ball on the fast break dribbles in front and to his left and Jokic knocks the ball cleanly for a turnover.


There were also like 3 offensive rebounds by Gordon which led to at least two open 3s and either another 3 or a 2.


Final play, in retrospect, with 3.2 secs, call the time out?

Against a player like Jokic, teams need a big man to absorb a lot of the contact he dishes out. That is why AD didn’t want to play center. Jackson Hayes offers no resistance whatsoever — how was he a lotto pick?

Ham should go, hes awful. Leaving Rui in on a defensive possession there to watch the play unfold. Don’t use their foul to give. Just basic awful awful coaching.
This front office will most likely botch whatever is next though.

The Lakers were out of time outs, I believe.

I don’t think the Nuggets win it all, which means our window is completely closed. Time for some major decisions.
