Karl Malone (36 years, 273 days): 50 points on 04/22/2000 - Sport
Jokic with 2 crazy 3’s. Murray clamping Bron on the final play. And don’t forget the contributions from MPJ Gordon KCP and Brown. Feels good to see a healthy Nuggets team win big 🥲🧹🧹🧹🧹
As much as I want the nuggets to win their first finals, the heat have had a much tougher schedule and I feel like all of them deserve a ring, especially Jimmy Butler
@Robert Spence damn you hating like that
Lebricks pass fur sure was beyond dope he's a goat just couldn't carry this time
🧲🧲🧲
And the Tech from the nugget coach to keep it interesting
That jokic 1 foot fade away 3pt with nothing but the bottom of the net is one of the most beautiful shot ive ever seen.
Also that was a Carry
I loved his reaction after it went in haha
It was a thing of beauty
@@skletory what
@@skletory Like 90% percent of the players do. But you gotta point out Jokic.
Congrats, Nuggets!
Jokic is the real MVP
Denver Nuggets are in the NBA Finals! Congratulations to the players and to coach Malone. Only 4 more steps! Denver, you have our support from Serbia. Bring it in!
👏👏👏
doomsday came for the lakers celtics are next
Thank you and all of Serbia for blessing us with Nikola Jokic.
@@angel-ij4xv Miami is next
celtics not beating miami 4 straight
Jokic is clutch. What an incredible player he is. I don't think there will be any basketball fan who won't be happy for him. Hope Nuggets win it all 🙌🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Fuck them
The Joker is on fireee🔥🔥🔥🔥
The guy is a fight. He deserved a win
I am rooting for Nuggets❤
Go Nugz!!
That Jokic layup was as clutch as they come.
It looked slow but very smooth. Jokic on fire.
LeFraud can't relate lmao, he's a masterful CHOKE artist, the goat of FLOPPING and an all-time CLOWN😂
@@firstnamelastname1566 bro wtf was he doing holding then passing the ball on that 2nd last possession
@@firstnamelastname1566 I still don’t know why he killed an entire shot clock down 2 just to pass & have it deflected. Now he got 3 seconds & takes a terrible fadeaway that hit nothing but the side of the backboard 😅😅 Lechoke never fails
Yo he had 40 points 10 rebounds how’s it his fault lmao chill
Jokić was robbed for 3rd straight season MVP and decided to win other two MVPs. Love to see it. Croatia is rooting for Jok and the Nuggets! What a great team!
Yup they gave it to Embiid as a pity MVP. Everyone knows Jokic deserved it.
This whole game was a damn nail-biter. What an amazing game!
Great game!
My fucking nails hurts so much rn lmfao
@@bachnguyen7411 hat off to the lakers though man started off 2-10 to the conference finals. But this offseason some players need go.
When its 3&0 its really not!
A 4-0 sweep was a nail biter? How

LOL. He wants to be lebron's body guard.
Sadly no, he will come up with more dumb sh_t and dump it on us again and again.
Lol
That one just talks out of his bleep.
Kendrick Perkins is the reason Jokic didn't get MVP
I respect Jokic for being so humble ❤

They're only 4 wins away!
@@joshuaanderson4090technically 5...lol
Don't you guys worry it's a part of the script !! 😂

Some next level hatred
Isn't it sad that even with the refs help Lebron aka the anti-clutch aka 4th Quarter Sue Storm still got swept?
Lakers in 7 never fails to dissapoint
😂
Nah I'm not disappointed, it's a good season for lakers, they reached wcf even after starting 2-10 some ppl said we won't even make the playoffs, props to denver state nuggets tho they deserve the win
@@phnath5933 this ain’t a championship team nothing to be excited abt we will only get worse for here and out 😢
@@phnath5933 stop crying retard bandwagon
In 9!!!
They were not kidding when they said the GSW vs LAL was the “WCF/finals” that whoever wins it, wins everything because the Lakers won it and stopped right there. 0 wins in this series
😂à😊😊😅🎉
underrated comment lol
Facts😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂
When LeBrick was shooting 3's we Nuggets fans were yelling "he's with us, let him shoot".
Putz.
I chuckled when he only could muster 3 points in the 4th quarter. Complete meltdown.
@@meg-k-waldren Honestly, I probably cost them a game or two jacking up bad 3's in the forth quarters of games 1, 2, 3.
Even the Refs couldn't save the Lakers 😂
ESPN: Should Lebron have gotten a free throw in the last play?
Absolutely not that was all ball. The live angle I was waiting for the whistle to save them cuz it really was hard to tell from that angle. All the other angles were great and miraculously a great no call from the refs for once.
@@iprodigy6723 refs said “ah screw it there’s no point calling fouls for this team they’re losing anyway” 😂
@@reconnaisance 😅
@@reconnaisanceRefs like "We gave them this much help and they still can't win a single game? Fuck it. They going to Cancún sooner or later"
No, but Jokic should have on that layup.
Lebron choked the last two possessions. Burning the clock instead of taking the open three. And driving to the same spot where he bricked the first shot.
He's played the entire game carrying in the first half. When he tried to take a breather and defer to teammates in the 3rd, they utterly choked it. Man was utterly gassed and that's a trash play out of the TO
@@kingbradley3402who took the last two shots for the Lakers? He did and choked it away. Another scapegoating excuse for LeBum. At least my Timberwolves didn't get mopped and won one game.
@@kingbradley3402 if one person plays solo ball it gets other players out of rhythm so it would be the fault of LeBron of the workload isn't carried equally.
@@kingbradley3402mj kobe evryone can play the entire game and not hit the side of the board 😂
@@kingbradley3402 we know he gassed but that 2 last position he burns time so much to make any move.
4:25 Terrible decision by Murray to shoot a tough shot with 8.4 seconds left in the game and still 5 on the shot clock. Should have shot with 1 second left on the shot clock, then if he missed, by the time there was a rebound, there would have been around 1 second left, not 4 seconds (which gave the Lakers a better chance to tie or win). In the end it didn't matter, but it could have cost Denver the game.
I agree, as a Laker fan I was mind blown he did that, was thinking he was going to kick it out to MPJ for a 3 with 1-2 seconds left on the shot clock.
Bad play
"That was a bad shot"
It was a bad shot but he had some amazing defense on the next play with his clamps on lemickey so it kinda makes up for it lol
I'm sure that will be part of film study the next 8 days. The good news is it's correctable.
Laker in 7 never fails to dissapoint
lakers ended the series in 4 games, just as I predicted
Okay ja morant fan 💀
Chokers out in 4!😆
The realest thing is that Fakers wouldn't even get past the play-in without the help of bronsexual refs 100% facts right there.
LeSuperWashedChokeArtist had these hard coping, delusional Fakers fantards tricked into thinking he's the GOAT LMAO, he's a JR Smith at best an all-time CLOWN, the greatest CHOKE artist and a masterful FLOPPER 😂
Lebron aka the anti-clutch aka 4th quarter Sue Storm had other plans. 😂😂😂😂
Lakers fans: this sweep solidifies that LeBroom is > MJ
Yes it does. He was afraid the second to last play and took a bad shot to end game
You mean Lebrun Fans.
MJ got swept before.
@@The_Gamer_91 That was when MJ was the sole superstar carrying the Bulls on his back. When his best teammates, Pippen and Grant, developed their game and matured enough they became immediate title contenders. No superstar is ever immune to getting swept at some point in their careers.
@@imfinishedgrinding638 😂 MJ gets a pass being the sole superstar but Lebron doesn’t in 07
I've started to watch basketball with more attention just recently and man, what an exciting and beautiful game it is! It had me at the edge of my seat 🤯
Imagine a Denver vs Heat Finals
Celtics and Lakers been battling for that title for Decades
It'll forever change the norm of the nba
Celtics and Lakers would’ve been boring anyways, no wonder why nobody cared about basketball in the 80s because it was always the same 2 teams in the Finals. It wasn’t until MJ began winning chips in the early 90s when the NBA became extremely popular and everyone started watching it
I'm hoping Jimmy gets a ring finally. He deserves it.
@@LeFraudLosesFinalsEveryDayBMagic and bird were the reason people started watching it was just that MJ took it to new heights
@@ezirulez4eva175 100%, without Magic v Bird we may not have an NBA as we have it today.
The last time it was Celtics vs Lakers was like 2011.... You been riding that "norm" for 12 years huh??? Celtics made it last year and you act like it's been Celtics vs Lakers since 2011 lol... If anything, the Warriors at the finals have been the norm, so complain about that....
Fun fact: Jokic ties his wedding ring in his shoelaces, and if you pay attention the moment the Nuggets win, he immediately reaches down to his shoes to get it.
This man absolutely deserved regular season mvp and Embiid only won because "it's his turn".
Embiid somewhere right now crying and cuddling his trophy 😢 someone check on him
I think that giving the MVP award to Embiid and not to Jokić is probably the biggest mistake in the history of NBA
This will just be another hakeem vs david robertson story but with the pity mvp being so bad he couldn’t get past the second round while the real mvp wins a chip
I think Embiid should have at least 1 MVP in last 3 years. Even if it’s a shared MVP. Jokic would be happier with championship and Finals MVP would be a bonus
@@loodakris5928 embiitch shouldnt have shit. everyone knows hes the fake mvp, he plays loser basketball by focusing on his own scoring, flopping for fts and putting down his fellow players as an excuse for underperforming in the playoffs every year. joel is the problem and he should NOT have an mvp
Joel “just take it” Embiid
I don't think it's a huge mistake - Jokic got destroyed first round last year as MVP. Joel had a great season and Jokic is showing he is clearly MVP material through the playoffs. I'm greatful both are in the league, getting tired of the fans that act like one of them isn't incredible
“Sick of people knocking D Russell he saved the Lakers season and balled out in the playoffs”- D’Angelo Russell
Now there will be meet again in 2024 Playoffs.
Denver deserves it. By far the best team in the West this year.
Fow how Stacked the Lakers are I am Shocked that the Lakers Couldn't Win a game!
Why? AD soft and LeBron is trash
Stacked😂 Lakers don't have any good 3point shooter and losing because of it
GOAT debate is officially OVER. Jordan>James
It should not even started in the first place. That's disrespectful to MJ.
How many superstars did Jordan play with in Chicago. The answer: zero. He was the superstar. How many did Lebron play with and yet only won 4 championships.
LeBron at age 38bis doing better than MJ honestly. Didn't expect a 40 9 8 here.
Sadly, AD was his worst version.
Duh, but by even making the comparison, everybody is acknowledging that LeBron is a top ten all-time player.
@@mago97615are we talking about an MJ who came back only to help his franchise for business decisions?😂
Nuggets make the finals for the first time!!! Media: What will the Celtics and Lakers do in the offseason?
Hire Shangai players 😂
hahahah
Boston and LA and great cities. Denver?
And whose fault is it that LA is great? the media?
really?
or.... the sheeple like you?
This is exacty why there is no GOAT debate between Jordan and Lebron
Because MJ didn't get sweep. Right 😂😂?
@@mago97615😂😂😂
Man, Denver and Miami speedrunning it to finals
Miami WILL win❗️
The GOAT in the WCF:
Game 1 last 25 seconds: Bron pushing off, Bron with a turnover, and Bron inexplicably giving up on the game with still time remaining
Game 2 last 12 seconds: Bron gets stripped by Bruce Brown. Before that, he blew an open layup.
Game 3: Leaves the court way before the final horn sounded. Bron has always been a quitter.
Game 4: 2nd half: 9 points, 0 for 3 from three, got defended and blocked by Jamal Murray in the last play
Rentfree🤡🤡🤡
LEBROOM🧹🤣
Technically he was defended by Murray blocked by Gordon
He carried Lakers' yet he gets all the hate, Davis forgot to play basketball in the 4th
🃏🃏🃏🃏🃏🃏🃏🃏🃏🃏
3:41 Lebron chose to pass the ball...LOL...What a GOAT....
Afraid maybe lakers fans blame him if it doesn't count, he's thingking much better pass the ball and avoid the blame. Hahahha...
@8th Account Fuk you CZcams Show you have 0 knowledge. Stats say he's better than Jordan and Kobe in the clutch and you can find it everywhere.
Basically you're saying MJ and Kobe was plumbers.. Lmao
@8th Account Fuk you CZcams still can’t believe in 2016 he came out of a timeout, stood on the corner & watched kyrie go iso & hit the biggest shot in Cleveland history.. yet he calls himself the goat lmaoo.. what goat watches someone else take the shot to win in a game 7 ?
Today’s my birthday, and as a Nuggets fan I’m really happy that I got my birthday wish, which is
the Nuggets are finally in the NBA finals!
Nuggets finally advance against the Lakers! Kobe always had our number. LeBron just doesn't have that killer instinct that the greatest of all times have. Never has and never will.
This man is averaging a triple double n da play offs!!!!! Wow
"LeBron is the Goat"
"Lakers in 7"
😂😂😂😂
Got old
A reverse sweep has only happened 5 times in the history of American Pro-sports
this Lakers team was never going to be the first NBA team to do so
7 dreams 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🎉😂😂😂
Just in your wet dream...

Competitive close-out game 🏀 Can't wait for Denver vs Miami
GO MIAMI❗️
Series isn’t over yet
Cancun nba finals lakers vs Celtics 😂😂😂😂
I’ve watched the Nuggets do this all year. Never panicking and making adjustments at the half. So nobody has figured out how to play them in the 4th. Mike Malone is just straight up out-coaching everybody.
Congratulations Denver Nuggets. Now win in the finals to become champions to write history. It's a disgrace that Embdid win the MVP award.He did'nt deserve it. Jokic is The Real MVP. 💪🏀
Well, the referees sure did their best but they will not deny Denver.
Murray and Nicola are playing the game of basketball beautifully. Moreover, both of those stars don't have any tattoos. It's nice to see these days. What an inspirational duo. #noink
exactly. I respect people who dont have tattoos. They dare to live in this world without tattoos.
those with tats have tats to show they are fierce, when actually it shows their insecurities.
@@JohnSmith-nz2yq ? I don’t think people are getting tats to look fierce boss man. Well, Atleast not the avg person. But I do respect your opinion on them .
Thank you 👑 for all your efforts
LeBron just doesn't have the kobe and mj fire
That's Jokic for getting us Warriors fans revenge. Much love and respect our Nugget brothers❤❤💪💪
So Glad the Lakers got swept
LeClown James - Three Teams, Three Rings 😂😂
The Fumbling "King" doing what he does best.. Thank you Nuggets!
They got AD and Bron and can’t win 1 game. Hell even the timberwolves could win 1 lol
Okay ja morant fan 💀
and his teammates the refs
Two plays he was afraid to take control. Keeping the ball for 20 and quickly passing is ridiculous.
I think Jordan would have taken a better shot. James is No Jordan, not close
@@cimerti At age 38 and with all his stats, he's better than Jordan for me.
And you can't expect a 38 year old man, who scored 31 in 1st half to keep the same energy. Anthony David choked.
I watched the game but this 3 minute video was THE most critical part of the game IMO. All the runs and ebb and flow led to this part and was very tense. This is basketball. Well done both teams. Last night's game was soo disappointing. Even in a close out game, the Lakers fought to the bitter end.
Shoutout to Aaron Gorddon. Man balled out today!
There's no discussion 'bout how well the Nuggets have played during this series.
They were a extremely solid team at and out of home, raising their level game after game and with a collective work truly admirable, not just with the first line-up players, if not with those being in the bench as well.
Looking at all of them into the finals will be priceless.
The lakers in 7 crowd was adorable! I want one for a pet!
What a thrilling game. So exciting. CONGRATULATIONS DENVER NUGGETS🏆💍👏👏👏👏
Murray with a crucial miss and instantly redeems himself.
Good to different teams fighting for the title instead of the same few the past 20 yrs or so, especially a small market team like Denver, kudos to them.
He’s LeGone
How was this man not mvp
Embid kept crying lol
This gives me goosebumps, go Nuggets!!
How sweep it is!
"That shot that hit the backboard, & that shot that got blocked by Gordon right there, that made me the greatest player of all time."
Can't stop Nikola and these Nuggets!
what a fantastic Game 🎉
Great Game!
I'm Serbian & of course a huge Fan of Nikola Jokic but i've to say that there's not much love in the NBA for Jamal Murray & that's insane He has his downs but it's unbelievable for me that he's so underrated Idk if he has ever been to an All Star Game If not then this is a disgrace The Joker & Murray are an unbelievable Duo who wouldn't be were they are without the other Big Respect & Love to Jamal & the Joker from me Let's go Nuggets!
Beast that Jokic is🇷🇸
Give this man the WC MVP trophy💪💪💪
LeBum couldn't even win a single game. Send him to Taiwan to join Dwight Howard's super team.
40 10 9, best player on the floor this game?
You chose the wrong game to blame him
Best ending and 4th quarter I’ve watched in a while!
Without ray allen, kyrie irving and the bubble...lebron probably will still have only 1 ring
Bronsexuals when they win: “Bron is doing it at 38 in his 20th season! That’s why he the goat”
