      That's funny. Before the series everyone was picking Phoenix. In the last few weeks of the season alot of analysts had Phoenix and Dallas as possible sleepers. Now affer the Wolves sweep Phoenix they've become dogs. Give the Wolves credit. The Nuggets weren't dominant in any way versus the Lakers. The Wolves are far better at perimeter defense with McDaniels, NAW and ANT than the Lakers with Russell and Reeves. Wolves in 5 or 6. Denver is solid and experienced and Jokic is the mvp, but the Wolves have more depth and are menace on defense. Also, KAT, Naz and McDaniels are healthy this year.

    "Man, the Wolves are scary" is 1.5 weeks away from becoming "The Nuggets are inevitable." The Nuggets biggest strength is creating quality shots in the half court, and that is the Wolves biggest weakness. The Wolves are being overvalued for sweeping the rec center pickup Suns, while the real 2nd best team in the West was the Lakers. Nuggets in 5. Nuugets series spread -1.5 and Murray to lead the series in assists +800

      This is the first time in a long time that the Nuggets are at a size disadvantage. One thing I heard is Jokic has less assists against the Wolves than any other team. Let Jokic score and make everyone else beat them. The Nuggets bench can’t score consistently. This is a pick’em.
