Lakers-Nugs Game 3: 3rd Quarter Thread

Let's go straight to the halftime numbers. 49 possessions into Game Three, here's where we stand:
| TO% | FTA/FGA | FT% | EFG% | TS% | Off Reb% | Def Reb% | PPP | |
| Los Angeles | 12 | 0.43 | 53 | 49 | 51 | 17 | 79 | 0.98 |
| Denver | 10 | 0.48 | 85 | 42 | 51 | 21 | 83 | 1.06 |
Neither team can make a three: the Lakers have missed 8 of 9, the Nuggets 10 of 11. Both teams are getting to the line a lot, and both are taking care of the defensive glass. The difference in the game so far lies in free-throw accuracy. If the Lakers had made 77% of their free-throw attempts (i.e., their regular-season rate) in the first half, they would have four more points, and the game would be tied.
On the whole, I'm OK with how things look at halftime. Not thrilled, but OK. Someone's threes are going to drop in the second half, right? Who exactly that lucky shooter is might decide things. My money's on Sasha.
Here's your third-quarter thread, you gorgeous things. Keep on hustlin'.

Billups has 2 points… He’s going to get hot sooner or later. Kobes only gone to the FT line 3 times? One was to shoot a technical… really now?

Birdmans previous playoff high in scoring was 11 points. He got 13 points in the half..

FTs need to get better
We have allready 8, so we can’t be doing that too much longer. Especially if they are 17-20.
Need to see some aggresiveness and an attitude by the Lakers. No careless mistakes.

Smith has the idiot gene.

Don’t be so pessimistic… They have to win 4, not 2.

Yeah, that's bull. It doesn't matter which game we take, so long as we take one in Denver.

The pressure goes up dramatically in Game 4 if we drop this one though.

Right on cue
We get the amazing commercial of the Laker comeback in the 4th against Portland in 2000’s WCF.

Don't buy it. Pressure's on, no more or less in Game 4 than now.

So somehow the nuggets became the more talented, tougher, better team ...
What?
The Lakers are playing flat, they’ve been horrible during the playoffs. Where is this mindset coming from, and why isn’t Phil, Kobe, and Fisher doing something to address it? The Lakers keep crying, complaining, and they’re letting all the hustle plays go to the nugs.

True
… but before Denver it was the scrub team from the Rockets, and no matter how tough and hard they played, they should never have pushed that series.
I don’t know, I just don’t see the heart, they need to sack up, and it’s down to the leaders to change the mindset.
