Prediction for the NBA match which will take place on April 28. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

The team from Los Angeles had a great chance to clinch the victory in the second game of the series but missed a 20-point lead in the second half and lost the ending - 99:101. The third game was more like agony for the Lakers. The outcome was decided long before the final siren, and although the final margin for the Lakers was only seven points (105:112), it was largely because the Nuggets relaxed toward the end. 0:3 in the series - LeBron James and company never found a way to counter Denver.

The Nuggets have been playing with reserves the entire series with the Lakers. After falling behind in the first half and even in the third quarter, the team has found the resources time and time again to turn things around and win the game. Denver was trailing after a big break in the third game but led +12 at the end of the third quarter. Of course, the reigning champion had enough of that advantage to win the game. 112:105 - Aaron Gordon scored 29 points, while Nikola Jokic (24, 15 rebounds) and Michael Porter (20, ten rebounds) had double-doubles.

The Lakers didn't have the resources to stand up to Denver, the reigning champion and the main favorite to win the Western Conference this season. There is almost no doubt that this game will end the playoffs for LeBron James. The Nuggets will be the clear favorite to advance to the Conference Semi-Finals.
