AD besides a center beat the Nuggets.

Obviously the consistent version of Luka is scarier but we have not seen that version of him.

AD is a five. no matter what he thinks. we didn't lose to the nuggets because of size. we lost to the nuggets because they had 2 guys who could score at the end of games and we had 0.

I agree AD is a 5 and he should play it most of the time but him being able to play next to another 5 at times that can fight for boards is beneficial. The Lakers loss to the Nuggets for several reason the main reasons were Lebron and Rui were not good enough on the boards.


A series between Denver and The Nuggets would be very interesting because the have the size and defenders to match up with the Nuggets. They are just missing a secondary scorer.

by the looks of it, it looks really probable that its a 4-5 matchup with us and denver. and im confident we can match up well but jokic is still the best player in the series so i still give them a slight edge. im more confident playing against them now than before tho

Yeah Luka is probably the best iso scorer in the league when he's on so that's important. The Lakers keep getting swept by the Nuggets these last few years because they didn't't have the defenders or size besides AD. Now they have a good defender in DFS but are still lacking a center but Lukas scoring might be able to overcome that.

Nuggets is also a completely different team as well, their defense is not what it once was, so it kinda makes sense :yeshrug: .

The next game against the Thunder will be a true test of this team on what they can really do.
