It is a cliché but still the best way to describe it - do or die, win or go home. Whatever way you say it, the Nuggets are 48 minutes from a clean sweep of the Lakers in Round 1 of the Western Conference Play-offs.
It is hard to think that LeBron and AD could crash out of round 1 of the Play-Offs without a win but that is what is on the doorstep.The Nuggets are just that good.
I can’t get past that thought though so i am backing the Lakers to be able to put all their energy into salvaging at least one win in this series.
- LeBron James has never not won at least one first round game in his 16 Years of Play-Off basketball
- A LeBron James led team has only been swept once in 53 rounds of Play-Offs, last year in the WCF against Denver
- Nikola Jokic has never swept a first round play-off series
- All three games in this series have gone Under the Game Total

2022-23 Season Series:
The Nuggets and Lakers split the regular season series 2-2 but it was Denver who swept the Lakers in the Western Conference Finals 4-0
Denver Nuggets Form
Denver put in their most rounded performance in Game 3 winning 112-105. Nikola Jokic has played at an MVP level and in his five games played against LA this season averages 28.5 ppg.
One of the biggest differences though is the contribution from the role players. Aaron Gordon and Michael Porter Jr are the perfect complement to Jokic and Jamal Murray with Gordon adding 29 points and 15 boards in Game 3, securing the win.
Denver Nuggets Team News
Reggie Jackson is listed as questionable to play in Game 4
LA Lakers Form
The Lakers aren’t getting their moneys worth from the team they have built around LeBron and Anthony Davis. The two veteran stars are producing at elite levels this series but with the role players not living up to their abilities the Lakers have fallen in all three contests.
LA are a good, even great attacking team - ranking 7th on the season for points scored per game at 117.5 pts. They will need to find that attacking power across the board and none of their starters can come away from this game scoring zero points if they are to win.
LA Lakers Team News
Anthony Davis and LeBron James are both listed on the injury report but it is highly improbable that the two biggest stars miss Game 4

Verdict
