It’s crazy to see how quickly things can change in the NBA.
Early last week, the Denver Nuggets were the odds-on favorite to win the Western Conference.
Then, some pundits and talking heads were talking about how they were going to get swept.
But now, after storming right back to win two games in a row, it seems like plenty of people are ready to jump right back on the bandwagon.
That includes Skip Bayless.
Following the Nuggets’ win in Game 4, the controversial analyst took to Twitter to share his prediction for the remainder of the series, claiming that Mike Malone’s team would win in seven games.
Denver in 7.

The series has seen road teams win every game.
Whatever the case, it seems like this one’s definitely going the distance.
The Timberwolves absolutely blew the Nuggets out in Game 2, but the defending champions did the same right after that.
Minnesota’s defense looked much better in the game when Rudy Gobert was out, and he’s going to have to step up and toughen up if he doesn’t want to be benched.
Anthony Edwards is playing at a superb level, but he needs more help from his supporting cast.
