What time is Lakers vs. Nuggets tonight? TV schedule, channel to watch Game 4 of 2023 NBA Playoffs series
The Nuggets will think twice when they face the Lakers in Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals.
Denver have built a historic 3-0 lead over Los Angeles in the series and seem to be the West’s top seed in every game. Led by the duo of Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray, the Nuggets are just one win away from first place in the NBA Finals in franchise history.
Things won’t be easy, however, as Anthony Davis, LeBron James and the Lakers put up a fight in Games 1-3. Realizing that it’s now or never, Los Angeles will try to make Denver a little uncomfortable by at least extending the series by one game.
“Just gotta get me one,” James called of LA’s mindset after losing Game 3. “One thing at a time. So focus on Game 4. That’s all you can really think about. I mean, of course, this game is over and done with. We had a few chances but we couldn’t go through.
“Just get ready for Monday. I just have to get one. A game series for us.”
The Sporting News brings you everything you need to know to watch Game 4 between Los Angeles and Denver.
