It's hard to imagine that the Clippers will lose 3 in a row especially on what they are right now so Nuggets should be like this on their deciding game.
That's still a speculation as well but we'll see this on the do or die matchup on Wednesday.

Bro the Miami Heat almost wiped Milwaukee Bucks the number 1 seeded team in the East what do you think will happen when Miami faced the 3rd seeded team in the East? Because I believe it wouldn't even go as far as the 5th game of the series for us to show Miami can take down Boston easily. Also Boston Celtics is still uncertain when will Gordon Hayward will return and they definitely need him in this series if they want someone to match with Butler.
I don't think it applies mostly on the standings but there's always a possibility especially on this Celtics young guns but still Heat will prevail, I do have a hunch on that.

Yeah, I believe game 6 for Nuggets will be the last game of the series. Clippers had the game, but they relaxed to early and it cost them the win. They won't repeat that again I'm sure. Shame for Raptors that they couldn't win, I liked their fighting spirit, but Boston probably deserves it a bit more.

I expect Miami - Boston to be another 6-7 games series.

I see that point but don't forget that Raptors who Boston defeat was the defending champ right?

We can only dictate what will happened after we seen them played in game 1, we will be able to have a closer looks from how this
two teams will compete, Miami is a full defensive team while Boston are full of young guns who can all take 1x1. Offense vs Defense
very interesting to watch.

Unfortunately it doesn't work like that.  You cant just say they beat #1 so they will automatically beat #2-8.  To say the celtics won't even contend with them is rediculous.  Many times #7 beat the #2 team or #6 beat the #3 team it doeant mean an automatic win over a lower seeded team.

That is why I didn't even bother to respond to his constatation...It is too basic to waste words on such things. Since I couldn't restrain myself and had to answer might as well add something constructive to my rumination.

If Clipps are planing to win in game 7 Doc needs to stop rotating so much, maybe I'm wrong, but it seems to me like he is acting the same way he did in regular season.Too many rotations and some players simply need to get more minutes no matter what.

Sure it was a sweet comeback for Denver Nuggets. Most of us thought that it won't be long and it will never make a game 7 for their matchup against La Clippers.

Now, it's looking that they can potentially move to the next bracket against Lakers. We'll see how this game 7 will end.

Now this doesn't mean Lakers will lose, they have Lebron and I believe Lebron could win any game, dude is just a whole another level but clippers will definitely give them hell.
I also had the same thought whenever these two teams go head to head during the regular season but after the first two rounds of the playoffs I think Lakers are going all the way to the finals since their results are much cleaner than the Clippers.


Now that the Nuggets manage to push this series to the distance I really hope they win game 7. Clippers already had a good first half on the last two games and it's a worrying sign that they couldn't close it. Also the trend for the unders in game 7s still goes on after the series between Raptors and Celtics.

Losing game 7 would be an epic fail for the Clippers, even I somewhat would love the story of total Nuggets comeback, would probably be more interesting than Heat vs Bucks.

Denver Nuggets erased all the speculations that Game 6 will be their final game this season.

They forced a Game 7 via 111-98 win.

And come to think of it, the Clippers is one of the most offensive team in the league but they only did 35 points in the whole second half. I don't see it as a bad shot day for the Clippers but the Nuggets' defense really worked out to them. It's hard to imagine that the Clippers will lose 3 in a row especially on what they are right now so Nuggets should be like this on their deciding game.

Everything is possible, but I think that this was it. A wake up call, if they don't snap and start playing whole match aggressively they don't deserve to go through. I'm not alarmed as i believe that Doc is still educating the team and probably considers this as a schooling for the team.

There we go.
We've seen an end to the series of Boston Celtics and Toronto Raptors. 5 points led by the end of the game by Boston Celtics.
Most teams want to win the championship and in this special case that they're in the bubble, this is going to be another piece of incredible history. Nuggets just won their 2nd win and thought that it would be the end of the series, we still get to see team play for game 6 tomorrow.

Same thing happening again.  My nuggets are looking 🔥.   Down 16 at half and came ripping back.  If they can lock up this win how much pressure that puts on the clips.  I think nuggets pull off a second 3-1 deficit.  Epic if it can be done.  Honestly I'd rather see the nuggets vs lakers anyway since joker AD is a better match up than clips can throw at the lakers

First of all I have to say this is basketball and anything could happen, a 73-9 world record breaking team managed to get ahead 3-1 on a finals series and ended up losing the championship, nothing is too shocking in basketball, everything is possible. But aside from that, I believe personally that Clippers is a better team because they play with heart, obviously they do have talent but many players there like harrel, pat bev, gordon, louwill and likes all play with obviously talent but mostly heart, they have managed to make a HUGE comeback last year to gsw as well if anyone can remember that, it was all heart.

Now this doesn't mean Lakers will lose, they have Lebron and I believe Lebron could win any game, dude is just a whole another level but clippers will definitely give them hell.

I don't know but I have a feeling now that Celtics will win against Boston and we will see again another epic series between the Celtics and the Heat.
I know this was just a mistake LOL but that was hilarious, see the bolded letters. I know it was Raptors.
Sorry about that mistake, yes, that was a mistake by me, because I keep thinking of the Celtics I have it mixed in my mind the boston and Celtics.
it should be "celtics will win against the Raptors", and I was right.
That's okay, we make mistakes. By the way, I believe you've got a good grief with that all in bet for Celtics, congrats. Are you still on Celtics for the upcoming ECF? I think Miami has good lineup now and has more Veterans compared to Celtics, what's your take?

Will the celtics or the Heat would take that opportunity from the team who will advance in the NBA FINALS?
I am in Heat in this match they even got the Greek Freak's team not to have a second win, I'm bullish on Heat.

I was also wondering if what's the odds for series winner (LA vs LA).. I have a friend asking me for a series bet with him,  he is betting on the Lakers to win in the series, I think Lakers here will be the favorites so since I like Clippers, I might just bet online and get a better odds.

What's your thoughts about this?
Well, to your friend you've got no choice but go for Clippers, your choice but I think they really got a good match maybe a close one. I am rooting for Clippers no matter what even the Lakers will be the favorite.

Good for you, hopefully we will be lucky but we are counting it already, they still have game to finished in game 6. lol...

If the Clippers will win, that will put Leonard in the history.
Yup! It also proves that he can really carry a team wherever he go. Though James has also the potential to do it, Kawhi is still more impressive for me. I'm always amazed every time I watch him playing dormant but ending up as a best player of the match Grin. A humble silent scoring machine indeed.

Will the celtics or the Heat would take that opportunity from the team who will advance in the NBA FINALS?
Nothing is impossible. You know, Heat was able to beat Bucks (and I feel bad about it lol). Celtics on the other hand are well balanced as well. We don't know what would be the final outcome but this conference is exciting for sure.

Of course, there's a big possibility as Both the Celtics and Heat are playing very well in the playoffs, whichever team will advance in the NBA Finals, I'm sure they will give a hard time to their opponent. I think I will go with the Clippers winning over the Lakers, and Clippers will win in the championship, but before that, they need to take care of the business tomorrow by defeating the Nuggets.

Obviously that doesn't mean anything, they still have to beat Clippers probably and also whoever they face from east, I feel like west will be even harder, because whoever they face from east they will probably beat, clippers or lakers whoever goes to finals they will certainly have an easier match up in the finals, those teams are just too young to actually go against these elite vet teams.

I agree that East seems to be younger bunch than the West players.

Antetokounmpo is just 25, but since they lost, we have Herro which is the youngest player to ever play in a CF, theres also Tatum, Adebayo, Brown, all in all these teams are young in comparison to maybe just Lakers' players. Still, that is just their advantage, despite their ages they've done well and they've shown how great they are.

A lot of love for the Western team especially for the Lakers and Clippers.

If Lakers win the championship, the success would add to the legacy of Lebron James.

If the Clippers will win, that will put Leonard in the history.

If Leonard can lead the Clippers to the 2020 NBA championship and add another Finals MVP trophy to his resume, he will become the first player in NBA history to win Finals MVP with three different teams - the same awaits James if he leads the Lakers to the title.

Yeah, I believe game 6 for Nuggets will be the last game of the series. Clippers had the game, but they relaxed to early and it cost them the win. They won't repeat that again I'm sure. Shame for Raptors that they couldn't win, I liked their fighting spirit, but Boston probably deserves it a bit more.

I expect Miami - Boston to be another 6-7 games series.
I think that Game 5 too will be the last win of the Nuggets. I didn't watched the Game 5 but in Game 4, the defense of the Clippers is really good that Murray can't contribute that much to the team in terms of points.
For the Raptors-Celtics Game 7 yesterday, their last play is rugged. They are forced to take the 3 in their last possession before the shot clock expires and the shot of Vanvleet got blocked. Maybe the fouling out of Lowry have impact in the team? Anyway they lost and Celtics will fight the Miami.

My prediction with Celtics-Heat is Miami will win in 5-6 games Smiley.
