It feels like the Nuggets have pretty much coasted through four games, and they almost swept. Everything about this team makes you think they’ll respond and take Game 5. A big Jamal Murray game and Denver wins easily. – 12:37 AM

A fairly poor effort from a Nuggets team that lacked desperation tonight. The Lakers stay alive, and the Nuggets have some questions to answer once again.
Namely, what’s going on with Jamal Murray’s jump shot?

Denver’s back within 11 after LAL had pushed the lead back to 15. Timeout Lakers. Preceding this push by Jamal Murray and the Nuggets, LeBron James was pleading to the Lakers’ bench to challenge an out of bounds call on the sidelines that he swore went off DEN, but no challenge – 10:35 PM

Better start from Denver in Game 4. Jamal Murray has a couple of tough, driving finishes. Nikola Jokic just threw a behind-the-back dime to Michael Porter Jr. for a dunk.
Anthony Davis is off to a 3-3 start. Lakers lead 15-12 in the middle of the first. – 8:48 PM

The Nuggets need Jamal Murray here as soon as possible when he returns to the floor. There’s not enough scoring. – 10:47 PM

More on this storyline
Harrison Wind: Nikola Jokic on building the Nuggets’ read-and-react offense: He mentions his chemistry with Gary Harris, Jameer Nelson, Wilson Chandler and then Jamal Murray. “First, you need to learn how to play.” “You need 2-3 years together to learn how to play with each other. pic.twitter.com/aREWPKdbKT -via Twitter @HarrisonWind / April 26, 2024
“If it wasn’t for my teammates, I might not even get to that shot,” Murray said postgame on TNT. “I did what I could today, I tried to pick it up on defense. … It was a great team win. We all stuck together.” -via The Athletic / April 23, 2024
A Lakers source told ESPN that James’ foul on Murray with 58 seconds left, which rewarded the Nuggets guard two free throws that put Denver up 99-97, could also be considered “marginal contact.” “It makes no sense to me,” James continued. “It bothers me. … And then I just saw what happened with the Sixers-Knicks game, too. Like, what are we doing?” -via ESPN / April 23, 2024
