Jamal Murray scored 23 points in the 4th quarter (if I'm counting right) after playing like shit for most of the game. Basically Tatum in game 6, only if Tatum's hot streak lasted twice as long.

That was a good game. These both feel like really good teams. Would be good for the East winner for this series to go as long as possible.

I missed the game, I assume Rui shut Jokic down right, and the Nuggets lost after getting figured out by the Lakers in the second half of Game 1?

The Lakers are going to need a blowout win where LeBron can pretty much sit out the 4th quarter for additional rest. If they have to gut the next two out where he's playing 36+ minutes they are never going to win in Denver

Rui actually did a good job on Jokic. Lakers lost due to a lot of reasons (AD, Lebron missing layups and taking lots of 3s, DLo, etc), but Rui's defense on Jokic was not one of them.

Lakers would have won this Series in 6 in Round 1. Now they’ll probably lose in 5. LeBron and Davis are just too old/worn down.
