    I like the Warriors in 6. I see a split in the first 2 at Denver followed by Golden State winning all their home games. The Warriors have the size to battle with the Nuggets down low and the scorers on the wings to force Denver into an offensive game.

    I am going against the majority and saying that despite Denver's injuries, they will SWEEP the Warriors.

    Why the hell is Doris Burke commentating this?

    Really glad we're not playing the Nuggets. Those TOs would have been capitalized hard by them.

    I like Doris Burke. She's a pretty good commentator.

    My take on this series is the Warriors cannot stop (or even hinder) what the Nuggets do best: Attack the rim. There is no way the soft sissies can win a run-and-gun series against Denver. Except for outside shooting, the Nuggets are better in every way.

    Easy series to call for the Nuggets.

    On Wilson Chandler: "Now that his hip is repaired, he's putting out."

    Warriors in 6. I don't see how Nuggets can win this.

    If Faried comes back, I think Nuggets can win it in 7.
