A Reaves reminds me of Jeremy Lin & Linsanity. This guy who comes out of nowhere and plays like a star while everyone tries to figure out if he is legit or not. Sustainable or just a hot streak.

I can't figure it out. He is definitely interesting though.

If Jokic could show up this would be an easy Denver win. Looks bad today though.

Murray is beasting but idk if it'll be enough alone

Yeah, they can't expect Murray to keep this up for a whole game. Jokic needs to come up big in the 2nd half. Murray had his turn to carry the team. Now it's Jokic's turn.

Lebron the only guy in the league who can draw blood from Foster and get away with it, LOL. He was also complaining that Foster slowed him down after he bulldozed him.

Reaves and AD 15pts apiece.
LeBron 9pts, Lonnie Walker 8pts.

Four guys scoring well. 47 of LA's 55pts.

D Russell only 3pts 1ast. Schroder 1pts 0ast. Hachimura 4pts 2-6 FGA.

They can't depend on Lonnie Walker to keep scoring going forward but LA's big three are scoring well. Somebody (or multiple somebodies) from that supporting cast needs to step up in the 2nd half if LAL wants to win here.

Yeah anyone else does that and Foster probably ejects them  :laugh:

If you ask me, Foster should take that personally and give DEN all the calls next half  :)

Never seen a referee bleed in an NBA game before. Seen it in amateur games. I have seen referees have to leave a game with an injury. With a substitute ref coming on for them.

But bloodied up is a new one.

Which should make LA fans nervous. Obviously Murray has been nuclear, but to not even be up with Jokic having a poor game is hard to swallow at home

Foster is pulling out everything to stop Jokic. The whistles after the play has resulted in an LA miss are astonishingly blatant

The gust of air from Jokic's swipe could have killed AD. Obviously a foul  ::)

That is the most astonishingly bad call I have seen in a long, long time. Blatant cheating

Can't breathe on AD without getting a foul called on you
