I grew up hearing lake freighters on the St. Mary's River near the Soo Locks in Michigan, exchanging toots with passing ships. This captivating image depicts a freighter navigating through thick fog at sunrise, evoking tranquility & curiosity. Perfect for nautical enthusiasts or lovers of misty mornings.
The #Nuggets pull off the successful two-for-one at the end of the first half: Two free throws for Murray, an AD miss for the #Lakers, and a Gordon tip-in with 0.8 seconds left. #Denver cuts the deficit to 53-49 at the half.
Gordon has 14 points and nine rebounds. Joker and Murray have 11 points each. #NBA@nba
Aaron Gordon just got a shot, rebounded his own miss and scored against four #Lakers in the paint. Gordon’s bullied his way to 12 points and seven boards so far. #Nuggets down seven, second quarter. #NBA@nba
The #Lakers have done a great job on defense, but the #Nuggets are one Murray Flurry from being in this game. If Jamal can just get one of those threes to fall to open the basket for him . . . Lakers 79, Nuggets 69, end of the third. #NBA@nba
To their credit, the #Lakers brought their best effort in the first quarter. But after the first, the #Nuggets are only down four, and Joker already has a double-double. #NBA@nba
Jamal Murray’s looking for his shot, but he’s forcing it. His shot’s also flat; needs more arch. He’ll find it. #Lakers up six, midway through the first quarter. #Nuggets#NBA@nba
DeAndre Jordan with the steal, Christian Braun with the drive through two #Lakers for the layup. #Denver stretches the lead to 15 with Joker resting. About 10 minutes left. #Nuggets#NBA@nba
Another flurry by #Denver. Caldwell-Pope nails a three off a blocked shot, and the #Lakers call another timeout. #Nuggets up nine, late third quarter. #NBA@nba
LeBron nails a long three to give the #Lakers a three-point halftime lead, but the #Nuggets came back a 12-point deficit midway through the second quarter. Joker has 15 points and Porter Jr. has 11; meanwhile, LeBron and AD combined for 37. #NBA@nba
So it’s the #Lakers against the #Nuggets in the first round. We’ve got to beat four good teams to repeat; might as well start against an all-time great like Lebron. #NBA@nba
LeBron is the either #1 or #2 in terms of greatest bball players ever.
He's also the biggest cry baby in-game I've ever seen. The number of times tonight that he held his hands up looking at the refs, looking for a foul, is shameful. Add in that apparently he forgets that travelling is against the rules. Refs seem to forget that too.
My friendly reminder — if you can’t tell within two minutes if you should overturn a call, there isn’t clear evidence to overturn the call. #Warriors#Lakers#NBA@nba
