Los Angeles Lakers vs Denver Nuggets Prediction & Betting Tips - NBA
by Joseph King in NBA Predictions
The Los Angeles and the Denver Nuggets face off in game four of the Western Conference playoffs first round. The Lakers will be attempting to avoid what would be a second consecutive sweep to the Nuggets after they were bounced in four games in last year’s West Conference Finals. Lebron James and company are now tasked with doing what no other team in NBA history has been able to do: come back from a 3-0 deficit. To make matters worse, the defending champions have been in fine form with many bookmakers listing them and the Celtics as the clear frontrunners to win the title.
Despite running out to a 10-point lead after the first quarter, the Lakers were unable to hold off the superior Denver Nuggets. The result was a 112-105 Denver win, putting the Lakers one loss away from what would be a hugely disappointing first round exit. Los Angeles comes into this contest on a three-game losing streak. The upshot is that they will be playing this game at the Crypto.com Arena, where they have a solid 28-14 record this season (fourth best in the West). However, Denver is clearly LA’s bogey team as they have now lost an incredible 11 straight games against them when factoring in the playoffs and regular season.
Denver has one foot into the next round where they will face off against either the Timberwolves or the Suns. The Nuggets head into this game riding a four-game winning streak and having won seven of their last eight games overall. The defending champions displayed why they likely have the best starting five in the game two win on Thursday. Four Nuggets’ starters registered 20 or more points, led by Aaron Gordon’s 29.
