This is the third consecutive time that the Nuggets have been down 3-1 in the Playoffs following a 108-114 loss to the Lakers on Thursday.
Anthony Davis scored 34 points, while LeBron James had 26 points, nine rebounds and eight assists for the Lakers, who can advance to their first NBA finals in 10 years.
Against the Nuggets, Davis said the Lakers' ability to execute on both ends of the floor was the difference.
"We played great down the stretch; we played great overall," Davis said. "There's still some things we've got to fix if we want to put this thing away."
Davis played through an ankle injury in the second half. He believes treatment will allow him to be ready for Saturday.
"I'm good enough to play," Davis said. "I rolled it pretty bad but not too bad. I'll be fine."
