Jim Feist's Comp Pick, Friday September 18, 2020
9/18 06:00 PM PT / 9:00 PM ET
NBA (733) DENVER NUGGETS VS (734) LOS ANGELES LAKERS
Take: UNDER
Reason: The Denver Nuggets did it again, coming from down 1-3 in a series to pull the upset. They beat the Clippers after being down 1-3 just as they did in the previous series vs the Jazz. When they closed out the Jazz in game seven (80-78) they started the Clippers series with a blowout loss, 97-120. This was likely due to the emotion and exhausting win over the Jazz. The Lakers lost their first game to the Rockets and then rattled off four straight wins to take that series in five games and give them some rest. Now they face the tired Nuggets here again today. The Nuggets will be tired and mentally exhausted after two straight come from behind series wins. I don't look for the Nuggets to score much here just as they did in game one vs Clippers. They have to shed this hangover from the CLippers series. Your free play is on the UNDER.
