But if for any reason he tries to go off I think they're done.

And there you have it. Nuggets have a good offense, but once you get to the playoffs, you need to OUTSCORE your opponent, something that having a half-decent DEFENSE at least affords you, and something that the Nuggets know nothing of.
LAKERS 128, Nuggets 114
