NBA Playoffs: Nuggets, Knicks and Cavaliers win
Here is a recap of day 3 of the NBA playoffs featuring wins from the Nuggets, Knicks and Cavaliers win.
James, visibly distraught after Jamal Murray's buzzer-beater won the game for Denver, did not hide his frustration with the officials after the game.
At the heart of his anger was a second-half foul of Michael Porter Jr. that was overturned with the league saying MPJ had made only marginal contact on D'Angelo Russell.
“I don’t understand what’s going on in the replay center, to be honest,” said James, whose team heads back to Los Angeles for Game 3 on Thursday facing a 2-0 deficit.
“D-Lo clearly gets hit in the face on the drive. Why we have a replay center ... it doesn’t make sense. It makes no sense. It bothers me.”
James, who had chance to win the game for the Lakers with a wide open three, but missed, finished the game with 26 points and 12 assists.
