Dissed by the Las Vegas oddsmakers and network television programming executives, does Nikola Jokic have what it takes to prove everybody wrong? via markkiszla
Outside of area code 303, is anybody cheering for the Nuggets to win a championship? As the playoffs begin, it seems as if the powers that be in the NBA would just as soon Denver go away. Out of sight, out of mind … and out in the opening round?
While the Los Angeles Clippers and Phoenix Suns will be featured in prime time on TNT, the Nuggets are scheduled to play Game 1 at Ball Arena against the final survivor of the play-in tournament during the 8:30 p.m. slot, which starts on time less often than an appointment at the doctor’s office. Although Jokic could soon be voted the league’s most valuable player for a third time, putting him in the lofty company of Larry Bird and Magic Johnson, he’s a reluctant superstar who ranked behind Kevin Durant, not to mention Damian Lillard and LaMelo Ball, in jersey sales during the second half of this NBA season.
The Nuggets might have the best record in the West, but are 11-to-1 dark horses to win the first championship in franchise history. In addition to Milwaukee, Boston and Philadelphia, three beasts from the East, Phoenix and Golden State, who finished fourth and sixth respectively behind Denver in the West, are a better bet to win it all than the Nuggets, according to the odds posted by Draft Kings.
