NBA Betting Odds Lakers at Nuggets Game 6 - Nuggets Need Discipline

The Los Angeles Lakers will try and close out the Denver Nuggets in Game 6 of the Western Conference Finals on Friday at 9:05pm EST on ESPN.

The Nuggets have outplayed the Lakers for the most part in this series but at critical times they have made mistakes and they trail three games to two.

After losing Game 3 103-97, the Nuggets roared back to win 120-101 in Game 4 and then lost Game 5 103-94 as 6 point underdogs in NBA betting odds.

"For most of the series, we outplayed them for most stretches of the game," Denver’s Chauncey Billups said. "We just couldn't get over the hump in the fourth quarter in a few different situations."

The Nuggets have not played with much discipline in this series and it has cost them but head coach George Karl is not going to do anything different on Friday.

"You guys are almost saying you've got to have savvy and poise to be a championship team," Karl told reporters.

"I mean, you think the Detroit Pistons have the poise that the San Antonio Spurs have? No, I mean there's a different way of handling emotional, passionate, intense players. We have some guys who are emotional. Maybe a little too emotional. But for me, I'm not going to tell them to stop that because I think that stops them from becoming a competitor.”

NBA betting odds at SBG Global have the Nuggets -5.5 point favorites at home in basketball odds for Game 6 against the Lakers with a betting total of 208.5.

The Lakers have been so unpredictable in the playoffs that anything is possible in Game 6. If Los Angeles brings their best game they could end this series but rarely have the Lakers played great in back-to-back games.

"That's what the conversation has been about this entire postseason, our team, our potential and our capabilities," Derek Fisher said.
