🙄 the most annoying part is how it affects the historical narrative to say these were close games because LeBalco was sooo good; and then anyone who actually remembers the truth will have to explain the two year stretch of insane faker FT discrepancy
Mike Malone is a genius. If he would complain about the refs in post game interview, the league would fine him instantly. Instead, he's passing his message without crossing the line.
@@davidboucher6450 true he already addressed the Laker's FT disparity over the two seasons in the beginning of the series. Now all he needed to do is be sarcastic about it
@@kevinmclain6741 Put the end of game 6 and 7 of the 2013 Finals when the rules didn't apply to the Heat up there along with game 4 of the 2017 Finals.
True, but it still aint shit compared to the way Lakers games were covered during the Shaq and Kobe era. Between that and the absolutely atrocious reffing whenever they played the Blazers and Kings back then made those games/series just infuriating to watch. This was also the case for Jordan and the Bulls in the 90's, though i think it was much more warranted for sure - it still was an agonizing experience listening to the relentless MJ dick-sucking while Jordan would also get calls that no one else would. However, as biased as the officiating was for the Bulls, even at it's peak - it wasn't remotely close to the level of pure ridiculously biased officiating that those early 2000's Lakers would get, or what Lebron has always gotten, (regardless of what team he's on). Which is why it's so damn funny to hear James bitching about the ref's. Like, are you kidding me, do you not have any shame?! And what's so enraging is the fact that no matter how viscous he goes after the refs, he almost never gets t'd up. Imagine for one second the refs treated him the same way they treated Rasheed Wallace for fuck's sake! Sheed literally got t'd up and kicked outa an effin game just by staring at the ref after an absolutely egregious call. Lebron wouldn't even need to load manage via missing games due to bs injuries, he cold just miss games by being t'd up and kicked out of them, and then eventually even being suspended a slew of games per year if the refs were anywhere near as combative/antagonistic toward him as they were to Sheed back in the day. lol
@@bernarddelossantos8083I was bout 2 come say it ball dont lie lol tbh I'm surprised he made both those free throws within 1 min mark gotta be careful touching him lol give me a break
Pretty disgusting when even the commentators call out the MAULING Jokic got.. when EVERY TIME I see AD on him hes GRABBING HIM with both hands, doing whatever he wants, never being called... and no free throws for Jokic?? DISGUSTING !!!
Also thing I don't get, if the call was that it's a block. Why wasn't there a jump ball to determine possession? Why were the Lakers just automatically given the ball? But yeah AD was fouling tf out of Jokic, just insane.
What's funny af is they challenge it so the Jokic drive gets replayed in slowmo a few times and the entire audience is just watching AD foul Jokic like 3 or 4 different times on one of his drives - then you realize this is happening every damn drive and Jokic has shot ZERO FREE THROWS. 😂😂 Of course it's the league rigging for lebum, but its made even worse by Jokic having one of the worst whistles in the league. Shit is WILD, unlike any player I've ever seen. Zero ft's on 21 fga's, most in the paint. Man's about to be a 3x MVP. There's no comparison in league history that I know of, and I've been watching a loooong time.
@@LeFraudHasChokedInSIXFinals I was wondering the same thing. Even AD first indicated it should be a jump ball. My guess is it's because James got possession but the only reason that happened is because it was a foul call. What's interesting is how the official delayed the whistle until Lebron had the ball.
refs really tried their best to give it Lebron wow I guess it was still NOT ENOUGH HELP lmao I can't wait for this clown to retire I absolutely hate what he has done to the league
1:05 lebron looks like he said "not that bad not that bad" but when NO ONE TOUCHES HIM he is rolling on the floor crying and whining and grabbing and imaginary injury
everyone can see that expect for lakers fans, nba has been rigged since stern days. its so obvious, americans can barely win in olympics and losses in world cup just shows this
Lakers shoot 27 Free Throws to Denver's 9. They REALLY tried to hand it to the Lakers. Jokic scored 25 points without a single Free Throw attempt. Absolutely ridiculous.
Most people in Denver can't watch the local crew because Altitude and Comcast have been in a dispute for years. So in that time, we missed a Nuggets championship and an Avs Stanley Cup.
Here’s Reggie’s announcing in a nutshell: Mmm mmm mmm Something stupid Mmm mmm mmm Something stupid I could do that for 1/10 of what TNT is paying Reggie.
yah.. thats the right call a jumpball at mid court because the possesion is with the nuggets when they blew the wistle i dont know why they rewarded the ball to the lakers
"...but it's LeBron, you got to be careful touching him." after hearing the NBA paid network announcers, and the hometown Laker broadcasts, that was refreshing.
2 crucial offensive rebounds from Nuggets on LeBron 2:42 Jokic, 3:22 Gordon. Shows what a _"great"_ rebounder LeBron is when his team is boxing and and it comes to uncontested rebounds. But when opponents put serious effort and hassle LeBron just chokes.
@@raimundasm LeBron at 6’9, closer to a center in height, should have more. Especially since he’s so athletic. Denver minus one game beat the Lakers on the offensive glass.
I couldn't have been happier to wake up to the news that Lebron (and Steph and KD) is out of the playoffs...the refreshing commentary on the game from the Denver announcers was just icing...
Sir, boxing out doesn’t count as stats, therefore LeFraud wont do it 20 years of record shows he NEVER does anything that doesn’t add to a stat line “Help the team” is the lowest priority, “get stats” is top priority If “boxing out” becomes a stat line, he will immediately start focusing on it and do it like 100 times during a game Getting Stats is everything for Lebron 1. Stats will help him steal all the credit for winning 2. Stats will help him escape all the blame for losing “check my stats, what more do you want me to do? It’s all XXX’s fault” What more? Like boxing out, play defence, play off ball, dont stand there and watch, set screens, all the stuff that dont add stats, you can do to help the team win But LeStat will never do these things His agenda is simple: get a bunch of super star team mates to carry me for wins, then I steal full credit for winning, by getting stats
Top 77 if I'm being generous.. Wait till thos ped allegations come to light after his cheating ass retires so that he can be written off the history books
Ok, lets say it all ball. But before that when they were fighting for position Davis wrapped his arm around Jokic. Its so batlant that in the Regie Miller transmition someone pointed that out and the response to defend the no foul was that it was before the shot attempt. So it didnt matter according to them.
That's Chris Marlowe and Scott Hastings. They were trying not to get too much into the ref BS but that reversed call where Joker got mugged just broke them.
Glad the Nuggets prevailed....a sweep would have been better but 4-1 they were able to get the job done in front of their home fans and without dragging the series out any longer...Murray was clutch with that 3 and then the shot with 3 seconds left....LeBron might join the Knicks next season or some other stacked team 😂
when you realize the challenge they did to jokic cost them the game 😂😂😂 they could have a timeout and made some prayer at the end but karma is a bitch 😂😂
@JJFX- thats only if the first challenge is successful which the lakers did earlier in the game. Once you use your second challenge you lose a timeout.
TNT casters couldn't stop guzzling LeBron's seed yesterday. Did anyone remember that play where AD fouled tf out of Jokic but they still gave the ball back to the Lakers? Classic 3:1 FT differential too. They tried so hard to rig it last night.
something interesting got cut from this video that I remember from last night. right at 0:58 Scotty says "If this gets reversed..." and then it skips forward. What he said live was: "If this gets reversed, then we know" (It's the league)
This crazy FT disparity (also in game1) and no complaining from denver about refs, aside from Malone poking fun at that when job was done, made fakers elimination even more humiliating.
Insane that they reviewed that Davis foul and overturned it. If that’s not a foul what is? NBA’s credibility took another hit last night with its blatant attempt to help extend the Lakers season.
In the end, the Nuggets won and will advance, so not much will be said about that FT discrepancy and that BS successful challenge, but that was some next-level shenanigans right there. 😤😤 MIN-DEN is going to be EPIC!! 👍👏🔥🔥
What a joke that Jokic doesn’t get a foul call after those 2 drives. Love to see Murray go Kobe clutch mode twice in the series, dude has ice in his veins
The refs and announcers bias to the Flakers is beyond sad. I am glad Murray made the shot that put the Flakers away for good, and how funny is Karma that Lebron got stopped by Jokic and got the denied the chance to take the final shot lol Thanks for the video!
Man I immediately went looking for the full game with the nuggets announcers. This shit is beyond refreshing. Tired of the TNT announcers bigging up lebrina every two seconds. Shit is hella annoying.
