The Los Angeles Lakers are down 2-0 in their series against the Denver Nuggets after coughing up a 20-point lead in the second half Monday night and losing on a buzzer-beater by Jamal Murray.

The game-winner came just moments after LeBron James missed an open three-pointer which would have given the Lakers a late lead. Murray then took the ball down the court and buried a step-back 15-footer over Anthony Davis just as the clock expired.

Davis met with the media after the game and he was in no mood to answer a question about Murray's bucket. He gave a very brief answer before dropping the microphone and walking away.

He didn't seem too happy here:

Game 3 of the series is Thursday night in Los Angeles.
