Nuggets Jazz series prediction: a thread 
As much as I want to say Denver in 4, I feel like the Jazz arenāt just a pushover lol, so Iām going Denver in 5, but it could probably go 6. Hereās how I think itāll go:
Game 1: Denver
Game 2: Denver
Game 3: Utah
Game 4: Denver
Game 5: Denver
Game 1: Denver
Game 2: Denver
Game 3: Utah
Game 4: Denver
Game 5: Denver
I just donāt see Utah being too competitive without Conley and Bojan, and then also Ed Davis, whoās not as important, but some more depth gone. Maybe Iām too confident, I guess weāll see
Also some stat predictions, starting with Jokic:
26 PPG
10 RPG
9 APG
The assists could easily be much higher tbh. Last year he averaged 8.4 APG, and now you give him MPJ and Jerami? Oh boy, wouldnāt be too surprised if he hits 10+, also considering Utah will likely try to

Double him quite frequently. Rebounds may also be lower tho, as weāve seen his rebounds dip the more MPJ plays, but I think Jokic plays enough minutes to grab 10, and heāll be much more active and invested considering itās the playoffs.
Also I think Jokic could average 30 points, however I donāt think heāll average 30 points and 10 assists, itāll be one or the other, but also could be neither, but heāll be close to both marks in my opinion
Jamal stats:
23 PPG
5 APG
5 RPG
Might seem a bit ambitious most, but this isnāt actual much of a difference from his numbers last year where he put up 21.3/4.4/4.7. Rebounds could probably be lower than 5, as I mentioned MPJās tenacity on the boards, but Jamal has...

Improved his frame and is so much bigger, I find it hard to not see him get at least 4. As for points and assists Iām pretty much just guessing he marginally improves from last year. If you asked me a month ago I wouldāve prolly guessed more points, but MPJās emergence...
Changes a lot, and speaking of MPJ...
MPJ stats:
22 PPG
8 RPG
1 APG
Donāt be surprised at all if he averages quite more than 22 points, because Utah really doesnāt have an answer for him. Rebounds could also be up or down, but I feel 8 is a solid middle ground. I know 1 assist seems low but MPJ really only...

Touches the ball if he is trying to score. They do not get him the ball as a facilitator even though I believe given his size and understanding of the game heād actually be somewhat capable.
Thatās about all Iām gonna predict cause those are the main guys, but yeah. This series should belong to Denver. Weāre 3-0 against them this year, and they are undermanned. I suppose we kind of are undermanned as well with Gary and Barton out but we are so much deeper...
Than them that we have quite the advantage in my opinion. Also just looking at Mitchellās subpar playoff performance last year on top of the fact that weāve held him to inefficient numbers in every matchup bares well for us. Gobert is also not going to be too effective...
In my opinion. On offense he only really scores in the pick and roll, and Iām sure Jokic has been working on that, and Gobert is literally no problem for Jokic on the defensive end either. Utahās two main players simply do not excel against us. Denver in 5, maybe 6
