NBA Twitter reacts to Lakers getting swept by the Nuggets

After falling behind 3-0 in the Western Conference Finals to the Denver Nuggets, the Los Angeles Lakers, at the very least, were trying to not get swept in front of their home fans in Game 4 on Monday.

But despite taking a 15-point lead at halftime, they flamed out in the second half and fell just short, 113-111, resulting in a four-game sweep. What suddenly looked like a very promising season for most of the last three months is now over.

Fans on Twitter reacted to what was an anticlimactic end to the Lakers’ year.
