Trailblazers vs Nuggets start time, channel
The Trailblazers vs Nuggets live stream starts today (Monday, May 24) 10 p.m. ET / 7 p.m. PT.
It will air on TNT.
The Trailblazers vs Nuggets live stream is about to begin and finds Denver aiming to salvage a split at home before heading to Portland. Of course, that’s the last thing that Damian Lillard and the Trailblazers want, as they aim to build off of their game one performance in this NBA playoffs live stream.
The Denver Nuggets took a 61-58 lead into halftime of game one against Portland. The Trailblazers offensive attack started to trail off after former long-time Nugget Carmelo Anthony cooled from his 12-point first quarter. Denver would build their lead to nine points, when another Blazer caught fire.
Damian Lillard helped Portland take charge in game one with a 15-point third quarter including a three that closed out the quarter and gave the Trailblazers a 10-point lead. In total Portland shot 19 of 40 from three while the Nuggets shot just 11 of 36. Dillard would finish with a team-high 34 points. Anthony finished with 18 points in 22 minutes off the bench. The 36-year-old Anthony, who played the first eight seasons of his now 17-year career in Denver, was booed by the Nuggets faithful.
Perhaps even more astonishing than their numbers from three is the fact that the Trailblazers defense took away passing lanes from the best passing big man in the game, Nikola Jokic. Joker, who averages 8.3 assists per game had just one assist in the loss and it came at the 9:44 mark of the third quarter on a Facundo Campazzo three pointer.
The Nuggets go into game two as 1.5-point favorites. The over/under is 227.
