Lakers News: LA-Turned-Denver Player Weighs In On Championship DNA Of New Team

A well-rested Nuggets team will face off against the winner of tonight's Eastern Conference Finals Game 7 on Thursday.

After sweeping your Los Angeles Lakers a week ago, the Denver Nuggets lie in wait for the winner of tonight's Eastern Conference Finals Game 7 matchup between the Miami Heat and the Boston Celtics. Boston, after rallying back from an 0-3 series disadvantage to knot things up 3-3, is heavily favored to win at home tonight, per The Action Network.

DeAndre Jordan, a reserve center on the ill-fated 2021-22 Los Angeles Lakers, recently spoke with Brandon "Scoop B" Robinson of Bally Sports about how well his new club, the Nuggets, is meshing together.

“I think that you have to be selfless," Jordan said. "I think that one through 15 have to be able to contribute in a way, whether or not if you’re scoring the basketball — any way you can be effective on the game. And I think that we have guys that are willing to be selfless in that point. And I think that you also have to have a little luck too.”

Reserve Nuggets shooting guard Bruce Brown also spoke with Robinson about the club's off-the-charts bond.

“I think our chemistry is great on and off the court. Everybody vibes with everybody, and there’s no problems. We chill on and off the court, and the locker room is great. We click on all cylinders on the floor, so that’s how you know.”
