 So I just got done Watching this game The nuggets, I mean just look at the boys right now. Can you look at them? But I just got done watching this game The Lakers are now gonna face off against the Denver Nuggets in the Western Conference Finals. I don't think anybody Except Denpo fans really expected that this would happen Number one they were down three games to one and won the series in back-to-back series Number two the Clippers are the Los Angeles Clippers They've got Kauai Leonard Paul George Pat Beth a great defender despite him being so annoying Lou Williams Montrez Harrell They even got Morris who's a 20-point scorer in New York this season They just weren't able to produce and we all thought and all expected They would at least make it to the Western Conference Finals, let alone the NBA Finals It's not happening. We're seeing a Denver Nuggets first Los Angeles Lakers Western Conference Finals So let's talk about it because everybody's gonna be talking about the Clippers Everybody's going to be discussing what really happened what went wrong at the end of the day Chemistry is a huge part of any team success. They didn't have the chemistry in my opinion I don't believe they had enough enough games together during the regular season I believe Kauai Leonard just didn't perform when it really counted which I mean 14 points in a game 7 to end the series out It doesn't look good PG 13% is his new nickname because he's just played a shocking NBA player series and Lou Williams his whole saga going out getting chicken wings in a strip club and Montrez Harrell obviously he came and returned to the bubble late It just that the chemistry wasn't there from the start and even throughout the regular season, but in the playoffs it just wasn't there also B-Souls if anybody, you know Recognize the fit right now I'm just rocking that B-Souls look because I have to talk to the camera right now You need to see my facial expressions because this is crazy Let's talk about the Lakers and the Denver Nuggets throughout the regular season They've matched up four times the Lakers have won three out of those four Obviously the Lakers have LeBron James and Anthony Davis. Those are two pieces that just by themselves fit much better Facing off against this Denver Nuggets team When you look at the difference between the Lakers and the Clippers the Lakers rely on Anthony Davis is one of their main pieces And he's a great defender and he's somebody that can actually guard Nicola Yocic He's a great defender and he's also an offensive talent that Yocic has to guard on on the defensive end And Yocic's defense is still kind of sus despite him being unreal and possibly the greatest big man the game has On the offensive end. He's assist numbers incredible. His scoring is incredible He can hit the outside jumper the floater his touch around the rim great. His rebounding is still great He's just going to have a tough matchup against Anthony Davis. Anthony Davis is good on both ends of the floor Then you've got Jamal Mari. He's the guy that could really win the game And he's showed that against the Los Angeles Clippers. They couldn't guard him. They have PG-13 a good defender Possibly one of the greatest wing defenders in the game After after this playoffs kind of sus, but he is still a good defender Kawai Leonard an amazing defender He couldn't even guard Jamal Mari. They tried Pat Bev on Jamal Mari. Jamal Mari is just a great player He will be one of the greatest point guards the league has in the future If not next year the year after he will be top point guards top five top three He's an incredible talent this nugget team is going to be amazing in the future especially with MPJ coming up He's gonna he's gonna improve on defense and he'll be a great offensive talent as he is right now But obviously just improved and they've got Bowl Bowl who knows why he'll be so this nugget team Is going to look great in the future, but currently they're facing off the Lakers I don't think they'll be able to beat the Lakers simply just because the Lakers Are just vastly different from the Clippers the Clippers have Kawai Leonard PG Morris all three players are shooting us more forward power forwards The Lakers are a far better front-court team. They have great front-court defense Anthony Davis Dwight Howard, Javale McGee, but this Lakers front-court defense is going to be a tough matchup for this Nugget's team to face off against In saying that the Nuggets move the ball so well That the Lakers also have to be very mindful of this movement and actually look to contain what the Nuggets are able to do on the offensive end Which is hard because if you double team Yokic He will always make the right pass if you've got mil sap hitting shots Gary Harris hitting shots Grant hitting shots the Nuggets are going to be a tough team to face off against even for this Lakers team Who is the first seed in the Western Conference the interesting thing about the Los Angeles Lakers is that they just got out Of a series facing off against the Houston Rockets who run the small ball lineup Which meant that Dwight Howard didn't play it really at all Javale McGee didn't get many minutes and they really just ran Anthony Davis and made him the center LeBron powerful because They obviously had to compete against the small ball lineup of the Rockets now that they're facing off against the Denver Nuggets Who are a lot taller Yokic is the main focal point of this Nuggets offense It means that it actually suits the Lakers better in my opinion And you look at the difference between the Lakers and the Clippers the Lakers are much taller than the Los Angeles Clippers I mean to put it into perspective Harold literally is the same height as Paul George So when you have Harold guarding Yokic obviously Yokic is going to be able to dominate He's going to be able to see over the defense is going to be able to use his passing skills Feed the open man is going to be able to use his touch around the rim and get easy floaters because it's Yokic And he's very smart He's also a lot taller than Harold can back him down and he's a great player But against Anthony Davis Dwight Howard Cheval McGee will he be able to do that? That's the big question and I mean if you take out Yokic out of this Nuggets team You can sort of eliminate what he does and eliminate his impact on the floor I can't see the Nuggets winning the series really I mean you've still got to compete against LeBron James and Kawaii Leonard Paul George they obviously didn't have the best playoff performance is It's due to the Nuggets playing great defense But I think they also just couldn't click and couldn't mash in the Lakers They look like they've got a good chemistry going on in terms of just the LeBron James Anthony Davis duo They're gonna have to get some other scoring involved whether whether that's Rondo, Kuzma, Caruso There always needs to be that third option for the Lakers, but you just don't know who that is Whereas the clip is you sort of expected it to be Kawaii Leonard Lou Williams Paul George, but if Paul George is having an off-game and Lou Williams isn't performing and Kawaii Leonard drops 14 points in the last game 7 of the series It's gonna be a tough difference between the Lakers right now in the clip isn't I think the Lakers will actually win this series in six games But let me know what you believe down below in the comment section Look, I'm not ruling the Nuggets out as we've seen these playoffs anything and truly anything is possible We're now going to either see the Nuggets or the Lakers in the NBA finals crazy The heat and the Celtics in the NBA finals We could have a Miami heat Denver Nuggets NBA finals a Lakers Celtics NBA finals It's a win-win to me either way. I'm a heat fan I'm also I also love LeBron and I also love Denver. I'm winning either way Yes, I would love to see Miami go all the way to the NBA finals But if it's LeBron James and the Lakers versus Tatum and the Celtics a Lakers Celtics NBA finals History repeats itself and the Lakers versus Celtics after everything that's going on this year Especially with you know the passing of Kobe what a story that would be then you've got the Nuggets the underdog team Miami another underdog team that both teams you couldn't expect make the NBA finals this season if you predicted at the start of the year It's a wonderful season for NBA.
