The “nuggets” could not get together properly, but the most important thing is that the club stayed in the leading three of the Western Conference. The team is far from being in optimal shape, but it has guaranteed itself a place in the playoffs for a long time. In the previous meeting, Denver tried to give a fight to the Lakers, though it was not enough (121-124). The last quarter was decisive, rivals went toe-to-toe, but LeBron James and Anthony Davis took their toll. Unfortunately, the Nuggets cannot afford to play to their maximum, because in the infirmary there are Garry Harris, Will Barton and Vlatko Chanchar, plus the performance of Troy Daniels and Jeremy Grant is in question. In short, there are plenty of problems.
Montreal were an outsider in a pairing with Pittsburgh, but, despite this, they managed to beat their rival with a score of 3:1 in the series. Of course, all the matches took place between teams in an equal fight and with a close score on the scoreboard, but the Canadians still managed to achieve their goal, despite all problems that followed them during the regular season. After an incredible comeback in the third match, the Tricolors prevailed in the fourth meeting literally at the very end and Artturi Lehkonen scored the winning puck. However, it is currently unclear if the Canadians have enough fuse to keep playing at the same pace and to maintain concentration throughout the entire series with Philadelphia, as the opponent is in better shape than Pittsburgh. So, what is the free prediction for the NBA match for today?
