The Lakers continue to roll and are hungry to have the home-court advantage throughout the playoffs, so every game matters. They have taken off again and are 13-1 in their last 14 games, including winning in both Boston and Cleveland. The Nuggets appear inconsistent and out of sync right now. They went all of last season without scoring below 80 points in a game, and have now done it twice in the last eight games, with an 82-point performance thrown in there as well. They have dropped three of their last four, and needed a one-point escape at home over Atlanta to keep that from being four out of four. They are facing the wrong team at the wrong time as their "A" game might not be enough, but lately their "A" game is nowhere to be found. The Lakers take charge here.
