Join Mike Goodpaster as he previews the Western Conference Finals between the Nuggets and the Lakers and gives you his best bet for winning the series.The Denver Nuggets managed to avoid much of the drama experienced by the Los Angeles Lakers throughout this season. Denver did not experience numerous injuries, kept its core players intact and needed no trade deadline help, thus securing home-court advantage throughout playoffs by earning the best record in the West (second-best home record in the league) with Nikola Jokic nearly winning Kia NBA MVP, having proven stronger, tougher and hungrier than LeBron James and Anthony Davis during this season - its time for Jokic to get a championship ring himself!This 2020 Western Conference Finals rematch played in Orlando features three stars once more. At that time, LeBron and AD were hungry to add another ring each; their experience gave them an edge against Denver as the Nuggets were making history without making it as far. Denver had much to prove as they never before reached either Finals or won an NBA title despite coming this far; though, with LeBron standing between them again, does this bring them any closer?The Lakers can be considered the team with more momentum right now. Their postseason victories against the No. 2 seed Grizzlies and defending champion Warriors have been more impressive than Denver's thus far. Simply put, L.A. offers more compelling stories with LeBron closer than ever to an appearance in 11 Finals tournaments.No matter, as each series and game brings with it its own personality, problems, heroes and storylines. One thing's certain - this won't be an easy series between Lakers and Nuggets; give both clubs enough credit.Jokic and Murray may be the hungrier players headed into the series, and in a close series, that could be a difference-maker.
