He emphasizes that the Lakers must either stop Nikola Jokic from passing or from scoring, arguing that preventing his assists is the easier defensive focus.

It is gonna be on the Lakers to, you either gotta stop Joker from passing or stop him from scoring. The easier one to do is stop him from getting assists. Can't allow him to get both. If he gets both, you lose. It's very simple. Denver ready, man. I think Denver is ready. Like Denver taking that next step. They doing it. We watching it. But I think we're gonna have a rerun of 2020. I think the Lakers are the bubble and I think the Lakers will take it. I got the Lakers. I got the Lakers in 6, closing out at home in 6. That is my prediction. That's what I'm rolling with and I'm sticking to it.
