After playing twice in Western Conference finals in the past 4 seasons, the Nuggets will face the Lakers this time already in the first round! The team where played KCP leading in all these LAL-DEN playoff games 8-1 so far

Can't see the Flakers winning more than 1 game in the series. Even with a fresher AD and LBJ, time within a seven (five) game series will wear them out, probably AD will get a hang-nail and miss 3 of the games....but I will enjoy trouncing them one more time on the way to ANOTHER CHAMPIONSHIP !

Go Nuggets !!

They have 2 HOF members still league TOP3 on their PF and C positions, with more useful players than last season. Because of LBJ's age and AD's health, I think they are more dangerous in 1st round than in WCF (last season they beat #2 seed Memphis and defending champions GSW before weak resistance vs Nuggets). For me crucial is to take a 2-0 lead at home early.

They had both TOP3 players last year and got swept, our bench will only have to play 8-10mins a game like last year, so that should help us out. CB looks like he's stepping it up, hope PWat can do what CB did last year.

Well, LBJ is a year older but I'll have to concede he's still an immense talent. AD just coming off a back spasm injury and missed a game because of a headache....he's always been fragile but he has played Jokic tougher than most. Getting 4 days off before the 1st game was a gift from The Gods....er, Silver, protecting his flagship. Still, we're gonna be rested, we're still entering our Prime, and know what it take to win a Championship. I'll stand by my predictions of a Gentleman's Sweep.

-3 on halftime is good considering -14 at one point. Winning this game can be key to this series.

Great win vs a great team.

Our starting lineup when healthy and in shape was the best in the league.

Fixed it for you

Refs will be an issue the whole series IMO, 19-6 is a pathetic disparity that the League will just ignore

Not sure if I even seen Nikola having more dunks in a game than yesterday
