The Nuggets have already qualified in the playoffs, but they do not stop fighting, as there is an opportunity to finish the main tournament in the leading three of the West. The team approached the “sailing ships”. However, in the last meeting they stumbled. Denver faced the Lakers and were not ready for such a game, although the opponent entered the floor without LeBron James. The Lakes were playing defensively and Michael Malone’s charges were not like themselves, so they failed to show their best game (89-93). The Nuggets will try to rehabilitate themselves in the next fight against New York, but it should be understood that the competitor is now on the move and will only play to win.
Dallas are still sixth in the West. As you know, this position will allow them to start their fight in the playoffs from the second round. But keeping this line will be very difficult. Portland can bypass the Mavericks, so the latter need not to slow down. So far, these two teams have the same number of points and the Texans are ahead only in additional indicators. Luka Doncic and company lost their last match. Two days ago, they lost at home to Sacramento (99-111). However, before that they managed to get victories in matches with Golden State (133-103), Detroit (115-105) and Washington (125- 124).
