Lakers in 4.

Lakers in 4.
Jokic is a great player but AD, McGee, and Howard are going to beat the shit out of him on both ends of the court.
Lakers lose game 1 in a feel out situation like last two rounds then backdoor sweep per usual
Nuggets in 6. Lakers ain't shit.
Nuggets in 7 after the L:lolkers blow a 3-1 lead.
Jokic had no trouble against Gobert and Zubac, who are better than McGee/Howard. Davis is soft as shit himself, but both him and Jokic will put up numbers.Quote:

gonna give these nuggets a game. they got heart tbh.
but this be like that houston series.
lakers on a whole new level in the playoffs. no fukkery allowed.
lakeshow in 5. we got legit bigs that can beat and tire jokic.
lebron gonna son murray and unlike doc, vogel a real defensive coach.
Correct, the Lakers bigs will wear out Jokic and Rondo/Green/Carusco will wear on Murray. Just seems like a very easy 4-0 sweep. But I've been impressed by the Nuggets!Quote:

Not limiting him, but wearing him outQuote:

Would love to see the Nuggets pull off the upset but won't get greedy after what they did to the Clippers. Hoping they can make this a series that goes beyond 5 games.
It worked back in the day when the game went through the post. The Lakers aren't gonna post up dwert or McGee against Jokic and neither is a threat offensively outside lobs/rim running. This series will also allow Denver to play Plumlee more to take pressure off Jokic on the defensive end.Quote:

That's something that can bother Denver. Neither Utah or LAC had a big that could guard out on the perimeter like AD. He won't do much against Jokic but he can give Murray problems.Quote:

Nuggz in 7, and only bc refs will hand Lakers 3 games on a Silver platter
Heart says Nuggests somehow, someway in 7 but mind is with the darkside that is LAL so LaRoid, DaQuit, Rondo, HOward, and motley crew in 5.
