Lakers vs. Nuggets Game 2 Prediction
The Los Angeles Lakers and Denver Nuggets each scored more than 125 points in Game 1 of their respective series. The winning Nuggets were led by point guard Jamal Murray's (31 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists), and Nikola Jokic's (34 points, 21 rebounds, 14 assists) historic triple-double; however, six players had scoring performances of 10 or more points, including Kentavious Caldwell-Pope with 21 points and Michael Porter Jr. with 15 points and 10 rebounds.
When everyone is active at once, it is exceedingly challenging for opponents to contain this kind of multi-dimensional offensive attack.
However, the Lakers didn't play poorly in the defeat. their main focus and Rui Hachimura (17 points) contributed significantly as well. The only other Lakers to score more than eight points were those four individuals.
The Nuggets appear to be the deeper squad at this stage of the playoffs, even if the Lakers undoubtedly have more star power than the Nuggets at the top of their roster. Los Angeles will have a difficult time winning even if Anthony Davis and LeBron James combine for nearly 70 points each game if their supporting cast doesn't step up.
It will be challenging for gamblers to support Los Angeles unless they can demonstrate a little more adaptability and help their superstars. As a result, we believe the Nuggets will win in this Lakers vs. Nuggets matchup.
