The Denver Nuggets will get one more home game before traveling to Los Angeles.
The Nuggets have played extremely well at home throughout the entire year. After winning Game 1, the Nuggets still can't afford to lose Game 2.
A loss by the Nuggets would give the Lakers homecourt advantage heading into Game 3.
Can the Nuggets earn back-to-back wins at home in the WCF? Here are some same-game parlays for Game 2 between the Denver Nuggets and Los Angeles Lakers.
NBA Same-Game Parlays for Thursday
Nuggets vs. Lakers Same-Game Parlay
3-Leg Same-Game Parlay Odds (+542) (Bet $100 to collect $642) Click here to see which sportsbooks have the best odds
- Bruce Brown Over 11.5 Points (-102)
- Jamal Murray Over 25.5 Points (-113)
- Dennis Schroder Over 1.5 Rebounds (-170)
The Nuggets aren't the deepest team in the NBA. But off the bench, Bruce Brown has been a killer. He's added at least 13 points in his last three games. He's coming off a 16-point performance in Game 1 against the Lakers, where he hit 6-for-11 and added three free throws.
Brown has scored at least 12 points in six of his last ten games.
Meanwhile, Jamal Murray has also stepped up for the Nuggets in the playoffs. He just added 31 points on 60% from the field in Game 1 against the Lakers. He attempted more shots than Jokic and nailed 50% from downtown. Murray should get a lot of kick outs from Jokic to set up some easy looks from downtown tonight.
But not every shot will fall. I like Dennis Schroder to get at least two rebounds tonight. He's a 6'1" guard but brought down three rebounds in Game 1 against the Nuggets. He'll likely see about 30 minutes of action. Therefore, he'd need one rebound every 15 minutes on the floor. The ball will find him.

3-Leg Same-Game Parlay Odds (+668) (Bet $100 to collect $768) Click here to see which sportsbooks have the best odds
- Nikola Jokic Over 10.5 Assists (+100)
- Aaron Gordon Over 2.5 Assists (+116)
- Anthony Davis Over 2.5 Assists (-146)
The Lakers have to make adjustments against Nikola Jokic. They'd rather other guys make plays than Jokic. But the reality is, he'll still be able to dish the ball to others and put them in great positions to knock down shots. Jokic has added at least 11 assists in five straight games. He also had 14 against the Lakers in Game 1, adding 34 points. He's a walking triple-double.
Meanwhile, Aaron Gordon's not shooting it as well as he had earlier in the playoffs. But he's still getting minutes and filling up the box score. Gordon has added at least three assists in four straight games, and we're getting plus money on his prop. He will get around 35 minutes and play plenty of possessions to get those three assists.
And finally, Anthony Davis should also add three assists tonight. He's hit three assists in four of his last five and six of his last ten games. He'll play around 40 minutes, and if the Nuggets make adjustments for Anthony Davis, he'll have to pass out of the post a couple of times too. We need everyone to make their shots like in Game 1.
