So far, everything is going well for the reigning champions, they became the second in the regular season, behind the first Oklahoma only by extra points. Denver looks confident in the playoffs, win in four games failed, although few doubt the overall success of the club in the series against the Lakers.

Jokic is playing consistently well, he made two triple-doubles in the four games of the series, showing high efficiency.
Los Angeles Lakers
The Lakers made it to the playoffs, but they were clearly unlucky with their opponent in the first round, too stable and organized Denver. Not to say that the Lakers look hopeless, the team was hit hard by the second game, which miraculously failed to win. After three losses in a row, the club managed to avoid a dry defeat.
We don't believe in LeBron and company's kamback, although the Lakers had a very solid last meeting, not even allowing the opponent to take the lead once in the course of the meeting. We shouldn't say goodbye to the playoffs early either, we need to fight to the last.
