Many of my buddies made a mint betting the Lakers to beat the Warriors. Are most people here betting the Lakers to beat Denver in 6 as well? The Lakers are gelling at the right time.

I think AD can neutralize Jokic better than any of the remaining centers and it will be a replay of the results of the bubble series.

I mean anything is possible but I've yet to see anyone neutralize jokic. Dude is bounds ahead of anyone in the game even embid I think. The x factor in this series will be the guard play. Can anyone stop Murray? Jokic is gonna get his every night no matter what it's the other players. Can Porter show up huge. How dies Gordon slide in. I threw in on Denver this series think they take it in 5 just too strong.

Jokic has been great offensively in this playoffs, but he struggles sometimes against length and athleticism which AD has in spades. He also will be playing against a dominant offensive center for the first time this post season, and his defense leaves a lot to be desired. The Lakers have a few strong defenders to throw at Murray (Dennis, Lonnie Walker, Vanderbilt) it will be interesting to see how he responds to multiple defenders with length and athleticism being thrown at him.
