北京时间4月21日，2023-24赛季NBA季后赛大幕开启，丹佛掘金主场迎战去年的西决对手洛杉矶湖人，虽然本场比赛詹姆斯拿到27分6篮板8助攻、浓眉砍下32分14篮板5助攻4盖帽，但在拿到32分12篮板7助攻2抢断的约基奇率领的全民皆兵的丹佛掘金面前还是以103-114败下阵来，苦吞对对手的9连败。
值得一提的是，根据数据统计，掘金季后赛赢球且罚球出手数只有6个，NBA季后赛历史倒数第二少。这一数据和全场比赛也引起了媒体和球迷们的热烈讨论，球迷们纷纷表示：到底怎么样才能赢？
[1]“湖人球迷还在怪裁判……”
Laker fans will STILL blame the refs…
[-]“这些球迷经常会对自己球队的多名球员怪这怪那。所以这很正常。”
It’s pretty common for fans to blame various members of their own team. So that tracks.
[--]“他们应该这么做。裁判怎么敢不给他们30次罚球呢？”
As they should. How dare the refs not give them 30 more free throw attempts!
[4]“他们打得很好。他们只是会随机手感冰凉5分钟，然后就永远翻不回来了。”
They play the nuggets so good. They just go cold for 5 minutes randomly and never recover
[-]“挺好的分析，这就像当我们手感冰凉的时候，掘金趁机打出一波高潮，然后我们再也找不到节奏了。”
perfect analysis, it's like when we go cold the nuggets take off and we never find our rhythm back
[--]“他们总是能在最后让比赛变得有趣起来，但每次掘金都会在最后5分钟压制他们。”
they always make it interesting in the end but every time the nuggets just shut them down the last 5 minutes.
[7]“掘金队下半场0罚球，哈哈。”
0 FT for the Nuggets in the 2nd half lol
[-]“湖人不防守的，连犯规都不是他们的强项。”
Lakers don't play defense. Even the effort to foul isn't their thing
[--]“掘金拥有最好的内线和低位进攻高手，他在那个区域得分最高，但他只罚了2个，闭嘴吧。”
And denver has literally best post up and paint player who scores more then anyone in that area, and he shot only 2, be quiet please
[10]“掘金vs裁判，结果还能赢两位数，掘金横扫。”
Nuggets vs refs and nuggets won by double digits… nuggets in 4.
[-]“6罚真的太恶心了。”
6 free throws is nasty work
[12]“NBA竭尽所能的想把这场比赛送给湖人，但还是输了。”
NBA did everything they could to give LAL this game, still lost
[-]“看看那些犯规兄弟，约基奇整场比赛都被上下其手，结果只罚了两个罚球。”
look at the fouls bro Jokic was getting hacked all game and shot 2 free throws
[--]“伪球迷，戴维斯从一开始就被犯规了，几乎没有得到任何哨子。”
casual AD got hacked from the opening tip and barely got calls
[15]“AD在场上打了40分钟，还是防不住约基奇
AD简直是约基奇之子。”
AD out there for 40 minutes and still cant guard Jokic
AD is jokic's son
[-]“AD砍下32分14篮板5次助攻4次盖帽……显然约基奇也防不住他……
去年他也是27/15/3盖帽……”
Ad had 32 14 5 assets 4 blks…clearly Jokic can’t guard him either…
He went 27/15/3blks last year too…
[--]“AD面对约基奇打的不错了，在第四节封盖了几次约基奇，拿下32分和14个篮板。AD今天的表现与约基奇相当。没人能阻止约基奇。”
Ad played well against Jokic, blocking him a couple of times in the 4th, gave him 32p and 14r on the other end. AD matched Jokic pretty well today. Ain’t nobody stopping Jokic
[18]“在掘金对湖人的8连胜中，湖人队总共多罚了74个罚球。为什么他们获得了74个额外得分却仍然一场比赛都没赢？”
During Denver's 9-game win streak vs LA, the Lakers shot 74 more free throws combined. How do you get gifted 74 extra points and still not win a single game?
[-]“充分说明了丹佛有多么优秀。”
Speaks volumes on how much better Denver is.
[--]“湖人MVP的球衣：”
