Los Angeles Lakers vs Denver Nuggets Prediction: Los Angeles has played enough for one victory

Prediction for the NBA Los Angeles Lakers vs Denver Nuggets match which will take place on May 23rd. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

The Lakers were close to winning in all the series games with the Nuggets, but they lost in the endings. So in the third game, Darvin Ham's team missed at the decisive moment of the fourth quarter and eventually lost 108:119. On defense, the Lakers couldn't stop Jamal Murray, and on offense, they needed more play. For example, D'Angelo Russell played a catastrophic match and scored only 3 points. Only three players were effective on the other half of the court. Austin Reaves had 23 points, and LeBron James scored 23 points and made 12 assists. Anthony Davis has 28 points and 18 rebounds.

Jamal Murray is becoming a real X-factor for the Nuggets. Unlike Nikola Jokic, who shows excellent statistics but disappears at crucial moments, Murray is included in the essential points of the playoffs. The Canadian defender dragged in the second game against the Lakers, scoring more than 20 points in the fourth quarter. Murray didn't stop in the third game - 37 points when shooting more than 50% (15 of 29). If the Lakers still find Murray the remedy, they may give away the fourth game of the series.

There is no way to fight in the Western Conference Finals series – Denver ultimately beats Los Angeles Lakers. However, Los Angeles has played enough for one victory. Most likely, in the fourth game, LeBron James' team will achieve it, and the Nuggets will close the confrontation in the fifth home match. We are betting on the Lakers and waiting for the performance, as it was in almost all the full-time Denver and Los Angeles matches this season.
