What can the Lakers do to avoid a Nuggets sweep?

Skit and Matt are back for the finale of the YAMOLOGY playoff first round preview. In this we give our series outline, predictions and our X-factors. In this episode we combine the 2 and 7 matchups out West and East.
We start with the Nuggets and Lakers matchup which is at the end of its trilogy since the NBA bubble. We know that you can’t bet against LBJ but share the intricate offence that they need to handle in the high altitudes of Denver. Can AD step up and match the Joker’s production and what help can the Nuggets get off the bench from guys like Braun and Nnaji. WIll Jamal Murray be his usual playoff self or will nagging injuries limit his production?
Moving onto the Knicks and 76ers Skit points out that there shouldn't be a high level of travel fatigue due to the geography of the two cities. We talk a lot about Joel Embiid and the impact he will have to make to overcome the mega mecca. Matt puts his neck on the line with the hot take that Jalen Brunson will be the best player in this series and looks forward to the drama. We also try and schmooze our way onto the new roommates podcast with Josh Hart but only an invite in the next 48 hours will tell ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Drop your predictions below! (How many games and why?)

Pray

[@WitNest..]

The refs need to get Jokic, Murray and/or Gordon in foul trouble early or shoot 20 more free-throws. Lakers gotta be more consistent with their flopping and no-contact fouls.
