The Lakers, who are tanking, close out the season with two games against the Sacramento Kings. The Kings are currently one game worse than the Nuggets and hold the 6th best chance at the #1 overall pick. Etc… Denver has won 12 of the last 17 regular season home games against the Lakers

Pepsi Center will play host to a masochist’s fantasy. Denver has lost 8 of their last 10 games, including a home game to the lowly 76ers. The Lakers have lost 16 of their last 20 games, though they beat Philadelphia twice during that stretch. So put on your leather outfit and pick out a safety word, Nuggets fans, the Lakers are in town and Denver is one loss away from reaching 50 Shades of Bad.
