The Denver Nuggets are one-legged into the playoff finals. They win Game 3 of the Conference Finals against the Lakers 119-108.
For example, the record champions from Los Angeles are threatened with an early end. The team around LeBron James and Anthony Davis now needs four wins in a row to reach the final. No team in NBA playoff history has ever done that after trailing 0-3.
The Nuggets are the better team in Game 3 from the start, leading by 12 points after the first quarter. However, the team around Nikola Jokic was unable to break away decisively. On the contrary: in the last third, the game threatens to turn before Denver makes the decision with a 13-0 run.
For once, Nikola Jokic is not the top scorer of his team with 24 points. This part is taken over by Jamal Murray, who contributes 37 points to the Nuggets’ victory. The Lakers’ leading scorer is Anthony Davis with 28 points and 18 rebounds.
The qualifying winner of the Western Conference can already advance to the final on Tuesday evening with another away win in Los Angeles. (SDA/dti)
