      It is pressure cause the narrative is being pushed that the lakers are leading through majority of the time in the series, Denver is beginning to be seen as a team who gives up early leads and Los Angeles is seen as a team who can’t keep late leads, if the Lakers win won more by maintaining a lead this does put the pressure on the nuggets, that being said, as a Lakers fan, nuggets in 5, just don’t see this series dragging unless the Lakers’ depth and rest of the team carry their weight

    It will come down to the 3rd quarter again. Before game 4 the Lakers were -33 in the 3rd. In game 4 they were only -2. If Lakers can keep up what happened in game 4 they have a shot. Also, they have to rebound and defend as normal.

    What to watch for...
    Yeah, with Monday, it [free throw differential} could at least partially been due to the disparity in 3-pointers (though might not have been as well). Tonight, the shot distribution was almost equal so that explanation isn't even in the room, much less on the table. Even the "out of the paint 2s" were equal. On top of that, this was a Denver home game. Home teams usually get like a 55/45 shift in calls - that the visiting team got 3x as many FTs? Not 55/45, but 25/75? Legit bonkers. Still, Denver win.

    I gotta say somewhere that Lebron should scout out who on the squad has the karma or doesn't deserve to win a title and that is the vice that they have. You need all the players to be deserving of the win to get it ... coaches included. That's my take. Even if you have the talent, which they don't, still, the team will not win it. The Lakers have 2 good players and the best teams have 5 or 6 so ya that will also be an issue. I'd say they need at least 4 guys.

      That may be true but you state reasons as why the 76rs are seeded low. I would counter that the key role players have been injured for the Lakers, namely Vanderbilt, Woods, Reddish, Vincent or Lakers would have been out of the play in. Lakers may he a 7th seed but out of all the play in teams they are/were the most dangerous in a 7 game series.
      Even though the Lakers have been leading in all games vs Denver, the Nuggets outperform the Lakers when it matters most.

    I believe Nuggets only shot like 5 free throws to Lakers 19 free throws. Like I said before watch the refs with the free throw disparity. They may try to take this series from the Nuggets. Watch!!!

    Lakers will win if they do not allow any open backcuts, no double-teaming, and LeBron plays defense. If one of these 3 aren't satisfied, Lakers will lose.
