In the fierce competition of the NBA playoffs, the Nuggets and the Lakers have come to an end in five games, and finally with Murray's stunner, the Nuggets narrowly defeated the Lakers 108-106 and successfully advanced to the second round. However, the challenge they face will be even tougher, and the opponent will be the Timberwolves, who have performed well in the playoffs. Before that, let's take a look back at the fierce battle between the Nuggets and the Lakers, and the possibilities of a matchup ahead.
First, let's turn our attention to the Nuggets. Murray's performance throughout the series was undoubtedly one of the brightest highlights. His stunner at key moments not only saved the team, but also showed his dominance on the offensive end. In addition, Jokic's interior support is also an important weapon for the Nuggets. However, the challenge lies ahead of them, which is to deal with that Timberwolves team. The presence of Gobert and Towns is simply a wall for interior defense, and there is no doubt that Jokic's scoring ability will be greatly challenged. At the same time, Edwards' stellar performance has caused considerable problems for the Nuggets, and his scoring ability and leadership qualities are integral key elements for the Timberwolves.
On the other hand, the Lakers' performance this season has also been quite good and cannot be ignored. Despite the end of the second round, their quality is still impressive. The Timberwolves, on the other hand, swept the Suns 4-0. Edwards is a master of the game, and he's a mainstay for the Timberwolves, catching opponents off guard with his superb performances. The interior combination of Gobert and Towns put a lot of pressure on opponents, and their defensive and rebounding abilities make it difficult for any opponent to score easily.
In the voting results, the Nuggets were generally favored, with the largest number of fans supporting the Nuggets to eliminate the Timberwolves 4-2. However, due to the overall strength of the Timberwolves, coupled with Edwards' individual strength. The outcome of this series has become extremely uncertain and difficult to judge in advance. The lineup configuration of the two sides has its own advantages and disadvantages, and tactical coordination and coaching will also be the key factors that determine the outcome of the game.
In G1, the Timberwolves will enjoy a full six days of rest, which is enough time and space for them to prepare. The Nuggets, on the other hand, will need to adjust their form in a short period of time for the next big game. While the Nuggets have home-court advantage, the Timberwolves are not to be underestimated, and they have the ability to pull off key wins on the road.
