Alex Caruso: Lakers Need To Play ‘Faster’ Against Nuggets In Game 4

The Los Angeles Lakers fell 114-106 to the Denver Nuggets in Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals behind arguably the worst performance since the series opener against the Portland Trail Blazers in the first round.

L.A. seemed sloppy and could not match Denver’s intensity for the first three quarters, failing to recover in the last period despite a ferocious rally. While it wasn’t a great showing as a whole, Alex Caruso doesn’t believe significant changes are needed for Game 4.

However, the guard said L.A. must focus on executing the game plan better including cranking up their pace.
