The Nuggets took Game 1 of the Western Conference finals Tuesday night, beating LeBron James and the Lakers 132–126 in a game that got surprisingly close in the final minutes.

Los Angeles battled back in the fourth quarter, but when it got close to becoming a two-point game, Denver pulled off a beautiful play in transition that had everyone in the arena going wild and ended LA’s comeback hopes.
