Los Angeles Lakers vs Denver Nuggets Prediction & Picks - NBA

 by Stephen Abiola | in NBA Picks

Denver Nuggets vs Los Angeles Lakers is the first matchup of the seven-game NBA playoffs between these sides. The Lakers booked their playoff spot earlier in the week after edging past the Pelicans 110-106 in the play-in tournament. After a four-day rest, they travel to the Ball Arena in Game 1 of their playoff series against the champions. They definitely need that rest and plenty of luck to get past the Nuggets, who have a history of dominating this matchup. The No.2 seed in the West is on an impressive eight-game roll against Los Angeles, including last season’s dominance in the finals. But this record has no bearing for the Lakers, considering they have a record of 12 victories in a possible 15 before this matchup. The Nuggets vs the Lakers matchups have always been close.
