Nuggets will beat the Lakers but hard not to think back on that inexplicable loss to the Spurs that knocked them out of the 1 seed. Had they beaten that terrible team actively trying to lose they'd be playing a crippled Kings or Pelicans team rather than a highly motivated and healthy Lakers squad. They made their path that much harder.
OKC in 3 (they'll dominate so much that the series will be called early)
Mavs in 11 (the ratings will be so high the league will extend it)
Denver in 4, but LeBron will be named MVP of the series, even though that award doesn't even exist
T-Wolves in 7 and Suns only score 9 points in game 7
Too much is being made of the mavericks last month of play. Their strength of schedule the last 20 games is not impressive.
it’s funny you bring up late game offense for the timberwolves when the suns have had the worst 4th quarter numbers. i still think suns in 6
The key for the Lakers beating the Nuggets in 2020 was that they had multiple bigs to throw at Jokic, including Dwight Howard.
Asking AD to average 30 on top of mitigating Jokic is a lot to ask.
But I think he can do one of those things.
I expect the Lakers to come out firing because they want Game 1 bad. If the Nuggets can shut them up after getting LA’s best shot, it will be a short series. But if LA gets game 1, I can see maybe it going to 6.
Should be fun.
“Lakers will make it competitive…in 5”. 😂😂😂😂. Since when is getting gentleman swept “competitive”. Denver in 4
Mavs better not lose. Crazy bold prediction: Philly beats the knicks in 6.
Okc 4
Den 7
Suns 6
Mavs 6
Legs is out of his mind picking the twolves 😂
Kings in 7 (OKC is the better team on paper but too young to handle the playoffs pressure)
Nuggets in 5 (should be a sweep, but I don't think the league will like to see a clean sweep)
Suns in 5 (Booker & KD will have an off game, but overall, their mid-range will finish Wolves easily)
Mavs in 4 (Even Mavs are super hot after all-star, people still underestimate how good they really are)
Its not Suns offense vs Wolves defence… In all reg season games Suns beat Wolves with defence… They just limit Ant and there is noone else on the Wolves to be enough of a threat. Unless Ant and KAT really go to another level offensively, Wolves will not even get to a point where their defence could be a legit argument.
Suns in 1… game one in this series is like a game 2 normally cause of recent history. Its time for Wolves to make adjustments. If Wolves dont win game 1 its over for them… Unless ofc Suns just fall apart like they did vs Dallas xD
I’m getting tired of people not understanding that the Suns are a defensive team.. not an offensive one.
Wolves have no chance.
Suns in 4.
The T-wolves will kill the suns.. they're just soft…
OKC in 6
NUGGETS in 5
WOLVES in 5
MAVS in 6
Clipper disrespect is crazy
