This is 100% literally the only possible result in this series. Lakers aren't getting swept and Denver isn't losing 2 or more games.

Just be ready for Lakers to get double the amount of free throws, maybe triple since it's the Nuggets.

As long as Jokic isn't in foul trouble, they will weather that storm.

Lakers should get ready for Cancun

Best thing for Lakers is that they get 4 days rest before they play Denver

Lakers could barely win vs a crunch time Zion less, Ingram less and cold CJ Pelicans team. Denver will wax them in short order once again.

I'm going to bet with whatever Jontay Porter bets. He's good at betting.

I don’t think tonight’s game has any bearing one way or the other.

Just looking at the matchup they have the exact same flaws as last year and don’t have another big to throw at Joker.

No Lakers won't lose two at home. Denver in 5 is the only possibility.

I understand the Lakers don't wanna risk on losing against GSW/Kings but man they would've a good chance vs the young OKC roster. This would be over in 5.

They won't be able to keep up with Denver's offense thats the point. Jokic schooled AD before, he'll school him again. Then you have playoff Murray who also routinely abuses the Lakers. I'd be surprised if this goes more than 6 games.

I think Lakers win on of the first 2 games in Denver.. and it's going to scare people.
