A great Nuggets 1st half was met with a furious 2nd half comeback from the Lakers, but it was Denver's shotmaking and a great Nikola Jokic performance that prevailed to give them the Game 1 victory. Pete, Mike, and Darius discuss the Lakers 1st half struggles in transition defense and on the backboards, Jokic's strong game, the Lakers finding their own offense with LeBron and Anthony Davis getting the shots they wanted, and what stood out to them from the team's comeback. Then later, the guys discuss the adjustment of having Rui Hachimura defend Jokic and discuss the Lakers' guard play. Learn more about your ad choices.
