Paul thinks that despite Denver's 132-126 win in Game 1 of the Western Conference semifinals, that the Nuggets face some challenges going forward with the Lakers. The Nuggets needed to make some highly contested shots to hold of the Lakers, and he thinks they will continue to have problems guarding LeBron James and Anthony Davis. Paul also thinks that the Spurs winning the lottery and the draft rights to 7-foot-4 Victor Wembanyama probably means legendary coach Gregg Popovich will stick around a while, instead of retire.
