The Nuggets ran into trouble in the first playoff series when Utah showed teeth. The team was close to finishing the season, but pulled themselves together and snatched a ticket to the quarterfinals. Denver got to the Clippers, although they felt the full power of their opponents already in the first match, when they lost outright (97-120). After the unfortunate defeat, Michael Malone’s charges broke through and they managed to put the opponent in place (110-101). The third fight in the series was almost equal, but the Nuggets were not enough to catch on to the victory (107-113). Respectively, they will have to catch up with the competitor again.
As for the guys of Nick Nurse, they burned out, as they were very easily given a ticket to the second round of the playoffs, because it was not a problem to pass Brooklyn. Toronto were shocked by Boston’s performance at the start of the second series, so they lost twice in a row. Still, something clicked in the head of the “reptiles”. The game seemed to stabilize, and the team evened the score in the series. The Raptors gasped, though the fifth match showed it was early. Kyle Lowry and the company lacked the strength to resist the Celtics and now they will have to win again, because they need to transfer the series to the seventh fight. So, what is the free prediction for the NHL match for today?
