Warriors star predicts run over before Nuggets and Lakers

Draymond Green predicts a run over in the series of games between Nuggets It is lakers. The two rivals will start to measure forces this Tuesday, 16, at 21:30 (Brasília time), and promise to stir up the world of basketball. However, for the Warriors ace, the trend is that this scenario is not so balanced. According to him, the Los Angeles team should have no problems eliminating Denver.

I believe the Lakers will win. I bet on them. I think they win in six, the last being a home win. That’s my prediction”, said the Warriors ace during his official podcast.

The secret to the victory of the Los Angeles team in the series between Nuggets and Lakers is the marking of Nikola Jokic. According to Draymond Green, the team led by Monty Williams can take advantage of opponents with a strong defensive system. Including, this was one of the points that caused the Warriors to have problems in the semifinals of the western conference.

The Lakers will need to stop Jokic from passing the ball or scoring. The easiest between these two is to stop him from giving assists. You can’t let him do both. If you get both, you lose. So it’s easy to know what to do”highlighted the defender of the Warriors.

Even with Jokic’s power to change games and provide difficulties, Green believes that the Lakers will emerge victorious from this confrontation against the Nuggets. The Warriors defender revealed that he sees a big evolution in Denver’s roster, but that he sees the possibility of a “replay” of the 2020 bubble, when Los Angeles had no problems and beat rivals 4-1.

Denver is ready, man. I think they are ready. Denver took a step forward. We saw them doing it. However, I believe it will be a 2020 replay”, he completed.

Doc River has trauma with LeBron James; Tatum rekindled that feeling!

On the occasion, at TD Garden, for game six of the NBA playoffs, James reached 45 points and led the Miami Heat to a victory against Boston by Doc Rivers by 98 to 79. That great performance by LeBron, in June 2012, was remembered last Sunday, the 14th, by the now coach of the 76ers, who suffered at the same TD Garden, with a great individual performance by Jayson Tatum and the comparison was inevitable.

I’ve only seen a performance like that in the playoffs. And it was on this court, unfortunately. And it was LeBron. That was the only time I saw a live performance like that, and I’m glad I didn’t see many…. Tatum was magnificent”, vented the coach after the elimination of the 76ers to the Celtics.
