    In my opinion. The record of Lakers being 0-8 against the Nuggets worries me. It’s hard to imagine it going to 0-10 or 12 . Don’t think it will be a sweep. Lakers are due. Hopefully Nuggets win❗️

      Also had to believe Lakers will win 4/7 after losing every game this season.
      I wonder if there's statistics out there on how many teams have won a playoff series after losing every match-up in the regular season.
      Edit: Apparently it was the case with OKC and Portland back in 2019, where OKC swept the regular season, but lost 1-4 in the playoffs.

      Don't think you understand how basketball works, if you foul more the other team gets more freethrows, the teams aren't entitled to the same number of freethrows, teams that are more aggressive attacking the rim tend to get more freethrows. Hope you get it eventually.

      @DEEiBe 2 місяці тому +1

      It’s so ridiculous how all of you fans don’t actually watch the games, and only break down stats, as if the free throw disparity has to be the same.
      Let me break it down… The Lakers are second to last in 3 point attempts… they’re also bottom 5 in jump shots attempted per game… But get this, they’re #2 in points in the paint… #1 in Freethrows drawn, and #2 in defending without fouling…..
      With all of that context, no DUH the lakers will always have more free throw attempts.
