I'm going to predict that the team that's missing its entire starting backcourt is probably in trouble.
There's a shocker.
There's a hot take.
I mean, this was...
I mean, it's still bordering on tragedy for the Denver Nuggets because they are still down 3-2 in the series.
They're not out of the woods yet.
And all it takes is, like, one more turned ankle, pulled hamstring, bad Jokic night, bad Jamal Murray night, whatever, and they could still lose this series to a team missing its superstar guard in Anthony Edwards and its, you know, next most important guard in Dante DiVincenzo.
Like, I...
The Nuggets are fortunate to be alive in this series right now.
The Nuggets are fortunate.
Unfortunately, I hate to say it this way.
They are fortunate that the Timberwolves are now just beset by serious debilitating injuries that are probably going to tip the series.
And it will give the Nuggets... Let's fast forward.
You asked for a prediction?
All right.
The Nuggets will climb out of the 3-1 hole that they were originally in.
They will win this series, and we'll get to see Jokic versus Wemby in the second round, which is what I think a lot of us had hoped for, unless you're a Timberwolves fan, sorry.
But they got a lot of shit to do between now and that next round, including trying to just get healthy if they can.
They're not exactly going to have a lot of time since this thing now has to go the distance.
I don't know, man.
