But just like all the previous games… The Nuggets came storming back with a 14-2 run blitzing the Lakers and retaking the lead. And late in the 4th quarter it was a shootout, as both teams were trading heavy blows. You already know, just like the past matchups this was a copy-paste script. But we did however see something completely unexpected. Wooow where did this come from?! Jamal gets his revenge on LeBron with this huge poster dunk for that rejection he received back in game 2. Speaking of revenge, AD finally got a rare stop on Jokic late in the clutch, when the refs overturned the foul call after the challenge by Darvin Ham. Which btw cost them the final time-out. So that is 3 final minutes without a timeout. But, we’ll get to that in a second. Jokic however, used the mismatch on Hachimura here and quickly answered back. And unlike game 2, James had decent support on the offensive end by Austin Reeves. And on the other end from what it looked like a great defensive possession by the Lakers turned into.. It just seems like Nikola keeps popping in the right places every time.. And on the other side, LeBron responds with.. Now, I gotta remind you of this epic sequence from game 2. And last night we saw a deja vu… You can see it by LeBron’s reaction, he’s like come on not again. And after a couple of empty possessions on both sides, we’re down to 38 seconds as the Lakers have a 2 for 1 opportunity. LeBron makes a great decision by attacking the basket, and he calmly knocks down two clutch free throws to tie this game one more time. Now, Mike Malone has a time-out but chooses to let his team go for it, just like he did in game 2. Murray notices the difference between clocks being 2 seconds, and knowing that the Lakers are out of timeouts he made sure to take the last good shot. Oh my goodness, Jamal kills the Lakers again, knocking down this open mid-range jumper off of the great screen by Jokic. Now we see why burning that time out earlier was so crucial, as they ended up without a real chance to save themselves. Another wild game between these 2 teams, as I rated it an 8.8 on rategame the app that I’m a part of, which was dead on with you guys. The link is in the description for all of you who want to download the app and join. Do you agree with Poolle? Is this the last time we see Lebron in the playoffs? That’s interesting. Anyways, I gotta give credit to the Lakers for their fight and this shocking statistic where you can see they had the lead throughout the majority of this series, but this is what championship basketball is all about as Nikola Jokic explained it in the post game. The Nuggets are heading to the second round for a battle against the up and coming Minnesota Timberwolves. As for LeBron and the Lakers it’s a long summer ahead. The Celtics and the Heat was about what you’d expect. In terms of the final result at least. But I did not expect Derrick White to carry this team. White was doing everything out there with 38 points, 4 rebounds and 3 blocks. Seriously look at these insane closeouts. And these 2 throwdowns looked like a replay because… This was the same exact play, and same exact result for White. Just an all around great game for him, and it tells you a lot about the depth of the Celtics when the fourth or 5th best player can explode for damn near 40 points. Now speaking of the depth, they took a major hit as Porzingis injured himself and was visibly frustrated as I’m assuming he knows it’s not something minor. This is so important for their finals run, but he will have time to rest and recover as I see them barreling through this series and whoever comes out of the Cavs and the Magic. This routine win for them, got just a 5.3 from me on rategame pretty much on par with how the rest of you rated it. I do like this comment by frey, Derrick White legacy game. He was huge in this one. And credit to OKC, for taking care of business and sweeping the Pelicans. Not much to go over in detail here, the Thunder showed the entire world throughout this series that they are for real, and now they’ll have some time to rest as they wait for the winner of Dallas and LA. Another big night in the playoffs, following this dogfight as we saw what happens when 2 superstars go at each other’s throats. You gotta check out what happened right here. Talk to you in the next one. Peace out.

RALEIGH, N.C. -- Frederik Andersen made 33 saves, including a highlight-reel stop early in the third period, for the Carolina Hurricanes in a 3-1 win against the New York Islanders in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference First Round at PNC Arena on Saturday. Andersen kept it tied 1-1 just 45 seconds into the third. After the goalie was knocked down in front by Hurricanes defenseman Brett Pesce, Noah Dobson's initial attempt hit the post, but as the defenseman gathered the rebound, Andersen lunged across to stop his shot from going into an open net. “I think I just got clipped with someone’s skate,” Andersen said. “Just kind of threw the technique book out the window and tried to come up with something to get close to the puck and get something on it.” Andersen's performance was consistent with the form he's shown since returning on March 7 from a blood clotting issue that caused him to miss 50 games. He went 9-1-0 with a 1.30 goals-against average, .951 save percentage and three shutouts in his final 10 regular-season games. “Unfortunately, he’s missed a lot of time, but this is what you get him for,” Hurricanes coach Rod Brind’Amour said. “He’s always been a great goalie, he’s just not been able to stay in there. Hopefully he can stay healthy because if he plays like that, it’s a huge, huge thing.” Stefan Noesen gave Carolina a 2-1 lead at 3:44 of the third. Evgeny Kuznetsov's shot from the right point was redirected by Brady Skjei, and Noesen swatted the puck in with his backhand before it reached Semyon Varlamov. “There’s no other way that I know how to do it,” Noesen said. “I’m not the pretty dingle-dangle guy out there. You just go to the net and try to find bounces.” Skjei found himself in an unusual spot to contribute to the goal. “I don’t find myself down there too much looking for a tip,” Skjei said. “I saw ‘Kuzy’ and I had a feeling he was going to shoot it, so I just went to the slot and got a stick on it. Obviously, it was a big finish by [Noesen].” Kuznetsov and Martin Necas each had a goal and an assist for the Hurricanes, who are the No. 2 seed from the Metropolitan Division. Skjei had two assists. “We weren’t great, that’s for sure,” Brind’Amour said. “[New York] is a perfect example of a team that’s been playing playoff hockey for a month [against] a team that hasn’t. As the game wore on, it started getting up to speed with how it’s going to be.” Kyle MacLean scored, and Varlamov made 23 saves for the Islanders, who are the No. 3 seed from the Metropolitan. Game 2 will be in Raleigh on Monday. “[I am] encouraged because I think we played a really solid game,” New York coach Patrick Roy said. “It was a hard-fought game, but we had our chances. All year we’ve been resilient, and [this] is the moment to continue to do that.” Kuznetsov gave the Hurricanes a 1-0 lead with a power-play goal at 1:35 of the first period. He took a pass from Necas and roofed a shot over Varlamov's right shoulder with Noesen providing a screen in front. “[Noesen] screened pretty good, and ‘Varly’ didn’t see the puck,” Kuznetsov said. “ That’s why I shot that puck.” MacLean tied it 1-1 at 8:20 of the first. Anders Lee tipped Alexander Romanov’s shot from the left point, which trickled under Andersen's pads, and MacLean knocked in the rebound near the right post. "It's the playoffs,” MacLean said. “There's a lot of adrenaline and a lot of excitement, so it was cool to help the team out there early. It was a cool experience getting my first one in [my first playoff game]." After Noesen put the Hurricanes back in front, Kyle Palmieri had a chance during a power play to tie it again. He picked up a rebound near the left post and attempted to slide the puck around Andersen into an open net, but his chance hit off the post at 12:31. Necas would go on to score an empty-net goal from center ice with 1:32 remaining for the 3-1 final. "We played a simple hockey game. We created some pretty good looks because of that," Lee said. "Guys were smart with the puck all night, head up, making plays, we just didn't bury them. "We played a solid game tonight."
