Denver Nuggets Team News
Denver is almost certainly first in the West and will have a home-field advantage throughout the playoffs. The question arises whether this time they will take a step further and leave the West. Finally, everyone is healthy and ready to go for the trophy. However, a lot depends on the game of Nikola Jokic, who is playing unreal basketball this season as well. If there are no major surprises, Jokic will be MVP of the league again this year, and for the third time in a row.
Jokic is being helped a lot this season by MPJ and Murray, who have finally solved their injury problems. In addition to them, Denver found adequate replacements for Jokic, who can fill the minutes when Nikola is on vacation. An excellent addition is Thomas Bryant, who above all makes a difference defensively, as well as the veteran Deandre Jordan. A few days ago, we had the opportunity to see another veteran, Jeff Green, turn on the temporal pole and put Giannis on the poster. Denver is a very solid and compact team that can cause problems for everyone.
It’s never easy for the Pelicans, but the Pelicans are the team that defends the three-point line the weakest, and the Nuggets are the team that leads the league in three-point percentage.
New Orleans Pelicans Team News
The Pelicans have put together a very respectable team this season, especially as far as the attack is concerned, but this season they also depend a lot on the health of Zion Williamson, who also missed most of the season this season. However, when Zion is there, self-confidence is much greater, as well as security in the Pelicans’ game.
This season, they have shown themselves on several occasions as a top shooting team, which when they get into a rhythm is very difficult to stop. Defensively, Jose Alvarado brings a lot to them, and, above all, boosts his team with energy. However, in this match, many will envy the mood of Ingram and McCollum, who are the first offensive options of this team.
