LOS ANGELES — As Nuggets and Lakers alike filtered back onto the floor and started to get shots up, the tension in the sea-level air wasn’t a feeling of unfinished business, but rather un-started.
The Lakers led 53-49, but Game 3 hadn’t truly tipped off yet. Every player, coach and spectator in Crypto.com Arena understood the reality: The second half is the battleground of this series.

The Broncos’ eight-year quarterback nightmare added its latest contestant, a precision passer who nearly won the Heisman after transferring from Auburn to Oregon.
Quack is not whack.
Nix brings experience. At 24, he is not your normal rookie. He is mature and married. Most kids who spend this long in college leave as PhDs, not as QBs.
If you’re wondering why one of the Jaguars’ executives appears to be injured, the answer is simple: the son of the late actor Luke Perry attacked him, along with several other pro wrestlers.
