The Lakers are 2-0 in close-out games in the playoffs, having beaten the Trail Blazers and Rockets 4-1 after dropping the series opener. “Our group’s demeanor in all of these playoff games has been to treat everyone like a must-win,” Lakers coach Frank Vogel said via videoconference after practice Friday. “I would say that same mindset has applied to the close-out games we had against Houston and Portland, and we know those are always the most difficult wins to get in a series, and we expect this to be no different.” LIVE STREAM

NBA Thursday Night Los Angeles Lakers vs Denver Nuggets Game 4 21:00 ET In the NBA playoffs, Game 4 is often the pivotal game of a series. Unless one team is up 3-0, it’s a chance for the team that is on the wrong side of a 2-1 deficit to tie things up, and an opportunity for the team that is ahead to all but close things out. With the Lakers holding a 2-1 lead on the Denver Nuggets in the Western Conference Finals, that’s exactly the scenario both teams will be heading into tonight. With the Nuggets taking the most recent game — and nearly winning Game 2 — they currently have all the momentum, even if they don’t have a series lead. This team isn’t going to give up even if the Lakers take a 3-1 lead, but unless L.A. actually believes it should tank to avoid activating Denver’s magical 3-1 deficit powers, the onus is definitely on the purple and gold to take a decisive lead in the series tonight.  LIVE STREAM

Those of Mike Malone will try the comeback, where in the previous game they had recovered from a double-digit deficit, controlled an erratic LeBron, but that Anthony Davis erased everything in two seconds. A comfortable...

NBA Sunday Night Denver Nuggets vs Los Angeles Lakers Game 2 The Lakers dominated the Nuggets in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals, but if there are two things we have learned about this Denver team so far during the NBA playoffs, it’s that they’re pretty good at making adjustments and never give up, qualities that make it unlikely they’ll just lay over in Game 2. How will they adjust in Sunday’s rematch? For one thing, it seems as though the Nuggets will really try harder to limit their fouls. Lakers head coach Frank Vogel (accurately) pointed out after the team’s practice on Saturday that L.A. was actually whistled for more fouls (28) than Denver was (26), but the Lakers did shoot 9 more free throws, and shot the most free throws any team has shot in a quarter this whole season (24) in the second period. After the game, Denver was clearly not thrilled about it, but also very obviously didn’t want to be fined.  LIVE STREAM

Meanwhile, the Lakers bounced back from a Game 1 loss to eliminate the Houston Rockets with four straight wins. Denver will once again be the heavy underdog -- as our expert picks indicate -- but that's exactly where it wants to be.

For Houston fans, it’s their team’s first playoff shot at LeBron James, who dominated the East for years. The Rockets almost saw him in 2018, but an untimely Chris Paul hamstring injury prevented the “LeBron James Harden Finals” from occurring. For this series, the contrast is clear to anyone watch. Houston is small and the Lakers are big. It’s a point that will be brought up over and over in these games.
