On this edition of Road Trippin, Richard Channing and Allie discuss the adjustments the Nuggets have made against the Lakers, and how it's giving Los Angeles fits. Also, the crew looks at the Timberwolves who have pounced on the Suns, and the impact Rudy Gobert has on a team in the playoffs.

as a nuggets fan it’s genuinely so jarring to hear people complain about the refing AGAINST the Lakers, like the free throw diff in the last 10 games isn’t bigger then Richard’s forehead
Honestly I didn't see the swipe to the face until everyone brought it up. They called a foul based on perceived contact earlier in the shooting motion(which was overturned) and I only paid attention to if DLo's shot was affected by a foul. It wasn't. But then there was incidental contact after the shot was taken.
Idk y ppl think that was an automatic Reversal when the replay center was looking at something else to begin with
Entitlement of the Lakers fans is unbelievable, it's almost a blindness!!!
Jokic gets fouled on every second possession, yet no one sees it!!!
But, with fair whistle, there would be 3 blowouts and one close game, and nobody watches those kind of games/ commercials during it.
No mention to the phantom and 1 LeOrthopedic pad got in that 2 min window in the 4th
If the referees continue to give free throws to the Lakers every time, then there will be a lawsuit from Denver against the referee commission, if necessary all the way to the Supreme Court!!!
Playoffs lakers nuggets FT 2023

The NBA should finally stop manipulating the games for the Lakers with their free throws. Every game the Lakers have 10 to 20 free throws more. You should be ashamed of yourself in the NBA!!!
Lmfao jarring bro AD gets tackled no call Murray gets touch barley by lebron foul which was suppose to be a take foul somehow they got in the bonus to tie the game lmfao definitely on the refs dawg let yall literally back in the game smh!
I saw insane stats about the number of wide open threes the nuggets missed. This was not Lakers defense, they are not holding them to those low points on their home court - Denver was beating themselves for the most part. Even with those historic low shooting averages from Denver they still won. This is the Nuggets to lose not the Lakers to win. People over here talkin about that "call from the ref" and the "missed Lebron 3" and the "rui layup" without ever fuckin even mentioning that none of that would have even matter if the Nuggets were shooting anywhere near their season averages..... on GOOD LOOKS. I also saw a sick Jokic centaur shirt on Etsy just now you guys go look there.
AD gets tired guarding Jokic lol that’s why he disappears
Altitude is real. He will probably do better in LA. My bet Nuggets in 5!!!
@@DB-tk7yy If Lakers couldn't beat Nuggets with a 20 point lead, they're not winning a game. Nuggets in 4.
@TrevorLaw-kc7dw I'm down with it, lol
He’s expected to be at a dpoy level against one of the best offensive players of all time and also lead the scoring on the lakers, I think anyone would be tired, especially a 7ft guy.
AD is known for dissapearung in the second half of games. It's not the altitude, it's his lack of conditioning. He's just a lazy guy. Simple.
People start Jamal’s impressiveness at the bubble like in his first playoff run the year before he didn’t save them in Game 2 or 3 against the Spurs, and went toe to toe with CJ in an overtime game 7 of the western conference semi’s… Denver has BEEN like that
People assume athleticism is just jumping higher or run faster when they say Luka and Jokic arent athletic.
But conditioning,in nba game,is as much important
And balance is a part of athleticism that is always overlooked. An athlete who is always or almost always on balance is imo more important then a guy who can run super fast or jump high but isn’t able to stay balanced or coordinated when taking contact or even making those fast movements.
Rich look like he started his zombie apocalypse arc 🤣🤣
Allie "Having-said-all-that" Clifton 😂💛
Lakers fans looking for excuses: "Hey guys remember that one bad call? That's why we lost."
this is payback for all of the bs calls the Lakers got during the regular season
it's worse than that.... it's "hey guys, remember that one bad call IN THE THIRD QUARTER?"
I'm a Nuggets fan and the Nuggets fans in here saying there's disrespect on this podcast is crazy. They just said he's on track to be better than KD and Channing said straight up he'd take Jokic to start a team. All of them were complementary. That was last year. There's no hate here. Relax.
So funny this panel discussing who will have a better legacy between kd or jokic...jokic has already surpassed kd even if he retires at the end of this season..jokic will certainly win his 3rd MVP and probably wins his second finals MVP and second chip..and even if he fails to do so...jokic legacy with three MVPs, his triple doubles, his efficiency are enough to put him ahead of kd..
Laker fans and the team complaining about refs is my new go to example for when people ask me what “biting the hand that feeds you” means.
Lets talk about Lakers Nuggets guys! “Can we get rid of the 2 minute report?” LMAO
Another point re: the Jokic/Luka/Ant defensive expectations discussion.
If Jokic or Luka foul out, their teams are dead against any serious opponent. Like you said earlier, Jokic is the system, the heart, the brain of the Nuggets offense. He CAN'T play defense aggressively because he cannot afford to give up fouls the way Ant can. Ant is a powerful offensive weapon the Timberwolves have, but if he's gone, they can still function. The Mavs can still function without Luka because Kyrie can fill that role. There isn't a backup Jokic. He doesn't exist yet.
Vlatko.
😏
😂 the nuggets can function without jokic just as much as Dallas can function without Luka they got Murray mpj Gordon kcp Reggie Jackson that's still a really good team .
Against the Lakers, the Nugs are toast without Jokic. More so for his playmaking than his scoring. Jokic makes AG, MPJ, and KCP lethal. Take Jokic out of the mix and the Nugs get infinitely easier to defend (the Lakers are playing good defense against them even with Jokic) and they have NO answer for AD and a Bron that doesn’t have to worry about Joker in the paint. FOH.
The longest 2 weeks ever nit having Road Trippin podcast BIG FAN from day one💯 thanks for coming back 🏀
My favorite part about this podcast is Allie’s Ohio accent. I love that you represent us even when you’re not trying to out there in Hollywood.
What's confusing about the DLo reversal call? MPJ blocked his shot and just swung his face in the process, so that's not a foul, simple.
It's like people have never heard of marginal contact at all before.
It's the laker fans they're not used to refs not giving them what they want
@@dimitrijetucovic1307because it's not real
@@whereisthebalance5732 For people that only watch NBA highlights, yes.
Lechoke’s last dance
😂😂😂😂 - 14-Straight buckets ?? I'm passing AD the ball as he is checking in...LOL
It isn't just that the wings on the Wolves can put all that pressure on offensive players. It is also that players like Edwards, McDaniels and to a lesser extent NAW are all good weakside help defenders. Especially McDaniels. That allows Rudy to step out and defend on the perimeter more knowing he can trust those guys to make plays at the rim.
Jokic doesn't have an astronimically high usage rate.
His usage rate is one of the lowest in the league actually 😭😭
Most touches but the least usage. Most unselfish superstar of all time probably.
Joker is a monster
Lebron with his off arm literally shoved KCP on the floor and had an open three to go up 3 with 12 seconds to go. Talking refs is crazy.
With +700 FT diff over the next team? Crazy to bring it up. Like Manson saying "we really need to check into these serial killers, they're getting crazy! What is the Justice system even for?" 😂
Y’all don’t get what LeBron was saying. He did not say the refs caused them the game. He said how do you review a foul where someone got hit in the face and overturned turn it?
Ty charles
@@tycharles241that’s besides the point. Question is how did you let a 20 point lead vanish? That was some lame thing to bring up. Not that he is not right but you lame to bring it up. If they had been down 20 all game and as they are discounting THAT happens…yeah I would accept that.
Mannn I dearly missed you guys!! Easily my fav podcast
The AG switch worked because the Lakers kept trying to attack Jokic regardless of who he was guarding. They matchup hunt too much. That said, AG did a good job on AD too.
AD is truly mid as a 5 when guarded by a real defender
@@keepscrolling6042 You could say that but you also got to take into account that it wasn't JUST gordon guarding him. Jokic was always ready to help as he didn't give a shit about Rui's bum ass on the corner
Uhh, AD is averaging 30.4 ppg and 15.75 rpg against Denver in this series…🤷🏾♂️
*Clearly recorded prior to last nights Celtics/Heat game 2. Herro/Bam looked like Nash/Stoudemire*
The foul every laker fan is “confused about” : DLo gets hit in the head by Porter AFTER the foul they called happened. They were looking at the “push” on the hip of DLo. NOT the head hit. That was the “marginal call” they were looking at. And THAT happened BEFFORE the head hit.
Think about it. Does a shot count after a “on the floor” foul? No, because the whistle blew on the FOUL thereby ending the play. Anything short of a flagrant punch in the face after the play is over DOESNT MATTER.
Why is it so hard for this group to admit the Nuggets are better than the Lakers lmao
A teaching moment, Well done Rich your absolutely right!
been looking for y’all lol
Im guessing this was recorded before Boston-Miami game yesterday, cause this one just got spicy😂😂
So tired of hearing all the crying about the foul on dlo. Jokers shoulders and arms bruised and bleeding, getting beat up all the time. He should be shooting Mailman free throw attempts every game.
What’s even more interesting is the last few games, Ham has matched ADs minutes to Jokic, and AD is still cooking…
The call was tough, but there can be NO serious conversation about the lakers not getting their fair share of foul calls and FT’s. Get real.
Been missing this energy
I've been waiting for someone to comment marginal contact calls. You were spot on.
People want the MPJ call but don't acknowledge what happens to Jokic when he's in the paint
2 of the biggest Bron supporters here 😂
I started really watching basketball in 2020 and i understood what richard was saying
Ninja said "wibbly wobbly"
Can can the Lakers fans get over the D-Lo non-call that was in the third quarter it had nothing to do with what happened in the 4th.
We back!
Put some respect on Murray…he’s good during the regular season, but in the playoffs, dude is prime time!
1:36 Bro, you want Channing to be 8’5”? 😂
Channing needs to do a Fu Manchu along with the samurai hair, gonna look like ShoNuff (Julius Carey III).
Lebron already said that he has a stage 2 vaginal tear and is only 97%
Does anyone know the heimlich maneuver 😂😅
It’s ok extra free throws coming to LA soon
14:40 thank you RJ, this annoyed me too
How are you allowed to hit the face even if after the shot?
Allie was not havin it today lol
Finally 😂 Allie gettin comfortable on the show
Where y’all been damn
WE BACK BABY
It’s a chess match between a Grandmaster vs a non ranked player. 😂
Wolves frontline of KAT and NaS is the motion
These need to come out the day they're recorded
Questions for RJ:
How come LA has 19-6 ft in the first game, Denver 0 ft in the second half?! It must be some kind of record, Joker scored 26 points in the paint, 2 ft only?!!
How come LBJ pushes KCP and gets no call!?
How come LA in the last 2 years has 40% more FT than the next team after them, Denver is farrrr beyond?
I thought you guys stop doing podcast lol
More importantly, Jokic didnt quit his team the yr he won mvp and still lost in 1st round. KD would be crying foul if that happened to him
Richard looks good a man without beard looks young
It's mindboggling how self appointed "analysts" can be so functionally illiterate about the rules of the game they're supposed to be experts on.
The foul was called for the contact on the drive, previous to the shot, so that was the call that got to be reviewed. The referee was very clear when talking about it while explaining the result of the challenge - they were looking into the contact MPJ made with the arm on the drive, before the shot. The ANNOUNCERS were talking about the hit on the head, because they also seemingly have no clue about the actual rules of reviews - the referees never mentioned the hit to the face, only the hook on the arm. If, for example, something happened BEFORE the call, like if MPJ had made another, previous contact or another player had fouled D-Lo before that, then they could have acknoweleged it and changed the call to this other, previous foul, because of the causation chain. But not one after. Per review rules they cannot change a "no call" that happened after the actual call they're reviewing, so it doesn't matter if MPJ did hit D-Lo on the face - those are the freaking rules. So complain with the NBA if you want, but it was the right call, as MPJ barely touched D-LO on the play that was actually called, before the follow up hit to the head. And that's why Malone challenged the call - he's not as stupid as the hosts of this show.
All that without mentioning how preposterous it is to focus on ONE call and use it as an excuse when the team squandered a 20 point lead and there were several bad calls or no calls on both sides thru the whole game.
Finally 🏀🇩🇪🔥🙌
Lebron chose to walk the ball up the entire second half, a thing he’s always done in the playoffs. He chose to hunt jokic but Malone adjusted to put him on rui, which took AD out of the action. That’s entirely on Lebron and ham for not recognizing and adjusting on the fly. Bron did a poor job not seeing that. Malone outcoached both of them.
Where the hell yall been
I do not understand how you do not see that Jokic in game 2 had 27-20-10-2 and all Naggets played BAD, YOU LA soooooooooooo Lebron AD ....???????????
Rudy Gobert most overrated my ass. I watched a bunch of T-wolves games this year and Most of the time when players drive into the paint and Gobert is there, they get scared like a little coward and say "nevermind" only to pass back out because they know it will get blocked.
Lakers fans like rj talking ref's is wild as f
“You making 60 million, that’s your fault” 😂😂😂
Shoulda waited a couple more hours to record this after Miami took home court from Boston then this convo would be a lot different
Real hoop talks by real hoopers
Kevin Durant top 15 all time? Sorry, totally disagree.
I don’t get why everyone sleeping on OKC,
Thunders are an absolute Contender, only the nuggets will give them trouble. They will run through everyone else.
OMG i love this last picked all star dominates and take 2 chip in a row.i love it.
Richard thx had nothing to with AD with Gordon on him lakers stopped feeding him
also rj should grow the beard one day
People always talk about the disparity of foul calls that the Lakers get but no one hardly ever talk about those calls being incorrect… I wonder why…
do educate the stupid public
Interesting Lakers facts below:
1. Did you know the Lakers free throw
differential over the last two seasons is
well over +1000 more free throws than their
opponents? They lead the league in that
category. The second place team doesn't
even crack +350 the Knicks!!
2. Did you know that if you combined the free
throw differential of the teams in 2nd, 3rd,
and 4th place the Lakers would still have a
comfortable lead over that team?
3. Did you know that the Lakers have shot
more free throws than their opponent's in 19
out of the last 20 games? The one game they
shot less was by 4 free throws.
4. Did you know that during a recent game
where the Lakers played the Timberwolves
they shot 31 free throws to Minnesota's 11?
This was a game Lebron missed and Anthony
Davis sat for 3 and a half quarters due to
injury.
5. Did you know the league outright
attempting and succeeding to rig games in
the Lakers favor?
@@micatrsic8762
1. Did you know that you that you completely ignored what I said in order to push an agenda? Everyone complains about the calls but I don’t see the arguments of the calls being incorrect.
2. Did you know that the Orlando Magic actually attempted the most free throws per game in the league this past season at a rate of 24.4? Lakers were second at 24.2. The 10th rated Jazz shot 22.6 per game for context.
3. Did you know that the Lakers are in the bottom 3 for 3pt shots attempted in a 3pt shooting league? It’s like maybe they prioritize actions that lead to points in the paint and getting to the line?
4. Did you know that the Lakers foul the least per game? This makes sense when you look at how good their interior defense with AD is compared to their poor perimeter defense. Most teams go for 3’s and jump shots which they don’t defend well. So, naturally it’s not often that the Lakers foul open jump shooters.
5. And also, did you know that your last “fact” isn’t a statistical a proven fact, it’s an opinion.
Thats not the argument. other teams are not getting the SAME calls. The nuggets in 10 wins versus the lakers DOMINATE wirh unside pts. Yet playing a physical inside game, they have 600 less free throws than the lakers. The argument is refs favor giving lebron the superstar calls, but no other team.
@@richardphan1182 I addressed this in my reply to the original comment but it didn’t post so I’m not typing it again. Not that superstar treatment isn’t a thing, but you’re both talking about narrative without context. Player personnel and style of play weighs heavily in this matter. Lakers have an elite rim protector in AD, other teams shoot more 3’s while the Lakers operate more in the paint, and they didn’t even average the most free throws this past season. That was Orlando. Lakers were 2nd with 24.2 per game while the Jazz were 22.6 were at 10th, for context. So naturally they are going to take more free throws against most teams. They get to the line more than 28 other teams so the numbers add up, and they mainly score in paint offensively while prioritizing protecting the paint defensively. You can blame the refs if you want, but my point still stands.
No one complaining is saying that the fouls on the Lakers are not fouls. Superstar’s treatment plays a part, but there are logical more basketball minded reasons for the disparity.

I read Chess match where? Maybe in the next round but this round you can bring out the broom. Just call a spade a spade it's over the King can start his crying early
Get rid of 2 min report? What?
I hate how people keep putting people against... Durant's legacy is defined by those he has impacted for the better... Jokic legacy is impacted by those he's positively affected
Fuck a team sport... it doesn't tell you anything about a person... just look at all these successful Hollywood business people...
Please stop with the silly ass individual comparisons in a TEAM sport
Did not talk shit about the Clips Mavs series. Rich went on a full straight nonsense during that part.
Jokić Is revolutionise Game and low key saving NBA ..you Can see subtle shift across league..like destroying Media narativne,nepotisam,granted priviligies ect . you see more players do effort and plays Game as team..it Is so subtle
No the league just allowing more physical play and the teams are becoming more mature 4-5 years ago they're were more young teams less experienced teams now they'res more experience team and more teams for a shot to win it all not just Denver .
@@diegochavez6203 not really less JA Zion coming the usual..but ok you will get picture eventualy...with Lebron leaving you will see increase in travellibg calls..nowdays embiids lebrons Are cancer
The Gordon switch mattered not because ad was stopped by Gordon. But bc lebron was mismatch hunting jokic. When jokic was on hachimura they stopped running lebron ad pick n roll. So it mattered. That’s why ad stopped getting touches
Agree strongly ad needs to demand the ball. But gotta ask why lebron needs him to ask?
Quality take. Gordon’s hops matter tho. Jokic one on one with AD isn’t effective.
RJ if you can grow a beard PLEASE do so.
Looking like Jimmy D Cricket with that bald face 😂😂
Zivela Srbija i Jokic. Let's gooo.
If you switch AD with Joker on Lakers I guarantee Lakers are not a 7th seed play in team. Lakers would be so much better than they are now
lakers edge in the championship season was their size, now they don't have size nor shooting, unless DLO and reaves get hot.
Facts when they dumped Dwight they lost ALOT of their bully ball mentality
Channing gotta take back Boston having a cake walk
Nobody can say that Lakers will not win 1 or even 2 games in this series. But to go from winning 0 out of the last 10 to winning 4 in text 5... for me, that would be only possible if we have an insane drop of quality in the game of the Nuggets (which is hard to expect) and combine with an insane rise in quality of the Lakers play, which also, is a bit hard to expect. So my prediction is Lakers win 1 or 2 of the next 5 but not 4 of the next 5, it simply highly unlikely to happen. And the main reason I say this is because of the efficiency of the "non stars" of both teams. If we compare them, the non stars, in other words, the "non Lebron and Davis" players of the Lakers are simply not as efficient as the "non Jokic and Murray" players of the Nuggets. It´s a fact. The non stars of Nuggets have made 54% of the final points of the Nuggets while the non stars of the Lakers have made 41% of the final LA score. And this is in my opinion the result of a coach´s work, Malone makes every player get involved so the team doesn't depend always depend on the efficiency of their 2 stars. And nobody talks about the coaches... why?
It's sad really. The whole lakers bench has scored 17 points the past 2 games and it was literally all scored by Taurean Prince. They have to get some offensive contributions from Dinwiddie or Vincent. As for the starters, Reaves and Rui have to contribute offensively as well. They were getting punished so much by the fact that Rui couldn't hit a shot. Jokic was just ignoring him in the corner to clog the paint
Let's face it, they're gonna get owned on the boards all series, so they at least gotta make sure that they can hit their shots when they get passed the ball so they don't need to rebound
@@jonjones8827 And after last night´s game 3, Lakers now losing 11 games in a row against Nuggets, this point has been proven to be a fact once more: the non stars of the Lakers are simply far less efficient players then the non stars of the Nuggets. It´s a blatant fact and the Lakers coach just seems not to want to face it because he clearly doens´t make any adjustments to try and fix the problem.
That's all you guys had to say about Denver? Refs? The whole Lakers fan base is delusional.
I know Lebron is still awesome and technically in the league rn, but the one thing I will say is there is a massive gap between Lebron now and Lebron from his time in Miami to the end of his time in Cleveland. Jok and Giannis don’t quite have a juggernaut like THAT to have to win over. They ARE this generation’s juggernauts. I’m not necessarily taking a stand on either side there, but however you want to argue that is how u take it
If I were AD id be pissed. I blew up my team to come to LA alongside LeBron. You basically get made into the Robin to an aging Batman. Even after a chip four years ago they won't go to you in crunch time in the 4th because Batman over there gotta get his numbers up. Davis would do better elsewhere outside the Lakers bubble. Send Lavine and Ball to LA and pair up AD back home with the Bulls. Davis, DeRozen, Caruso, White, Drummond, not a bad starting 5, and you can be the top star
This why AD wants to play Fwd bc his body cant take the physical of Denver.
I still don’t see AD being like Kyrie was, it my time I got the ball I’m taking over this offense AD looks to defer to Lebron like he’s big bro smh.
Look at the free throws Denver and LA got in game 1 vs game 2. Are we really supposed to believe that LA's play style changed so much?
If we're going to highlight this bad call vs DLo, are we not going to also look at missed calls that went in the Lakers favor in game 2? Are we really going to say there wasn't even one? Bad calls are part of the game. Missed calls are part of the game.
Contrast Malone's response to the Nuggets not getting a single free throw in the second half of game 1, "yeah that's weird but we'll win without them" with Ham and Lebron's.
The lack of serious conversation about the statistical impossibility of the Lakers' free throw advantage in the media is crazy. At the very least, y'all should be trying to explain what it is about the Lakers' play that's causing that.
The play type Richards comment about the marginal contact thing with the ball already gone is consistent with how Steph has been reffed for years. Both at the rim and on 3’s. And he’s Steph Curry. Happens all the time with him, including after reviews and protests. 🤷♂️
Love to see kawhi get back to 100% and win the chip but i don't think they can't beat a fully healthy denver squad
He passed KD in regular and post season, KD was never the best player in the league.
Channing is right rich you should grow the beard out. Baldies and beards are like peanutbutter and jelly fam. And channing does need a fu man haha
Why even include timestamps for the mavs clippers game if Richard Jefferson is just gonna defend his ass take the whole time?
I am a neutral fan and while watching it felt like Refs/calls were clearly favoring the Nuggets. That was weird.
I am neutral and they favor the Lakers every game
i think generally a hit to the face would not be marginal contact, but in that particular case, it just wasn't much.... meaning the contact itself was very light, he grazed him... maybe that's why the called it that way.... and let me ask you this question, if that same exact contact happened to his rib or back would anyone think it's a foul?.... no... none of us would (unless it's lebron or embiid, in that case, just existing somewhere next to them is a foul)
@roadtrippin Damn man! I’m in my car with my 10year old daughter!! I thought I was going to hear some good sports take and the first thing I hear is vulgar language! CZcams algorithm suggested you all…I’m good.
Allie is so butt hurt
