Do I hear +8?...8.5?
Nugs played last night at home and got the win but 8 points? Denver looking juicy.

Nugs went 9 deep last game. Lots of minutes for AI and 4 games in 5 nights.
But Nugs should be up for this game. Two top teams in the west. Nugs won 6 of last seven and last 3.
I read Stoud may be facing suspension for skipping practice but we won't know anything about that until after a line move.
Bodog showing some bettors 8.

Bill has a hot hand with basketball lately, so I wouldn't feel good about going against him here.
I'm still pretty upset over that loss I had on that total last night. I mean how do you miss 2 dunks and a layup with 15 seconds left in the game.![]()
Anyways, Even despite the back-to-back game in this spot. I too am liking the Nuggets tonight plus the points myself Bill.

Be careful here,
Phoenix is due, Denver has potential to breakdown on road.

The back-to-back games didn't effect the Hornets at all when they faced Golden St. the night before.

Aren't picks suppose to be posted in the appropriate sections? Why even have those sections???

Nice call on the over.
Nuggets made my pick look silly. Shooting in the high 30%s in the first half while allowing Phoenix about 70% fg%. ouch

I watch PHX a lot and I think the spread was decided in the final two minutes of the 3Q. PHX was up by 20 and their bench played so sh*tty that DEN cut it to 11. Then Amare came back in and hit a shot and Barbosa hit a lucky 3 at the buzzer, putting the difference back to 16.
Later on in the 4Q D'Antoni, already notorious for his little faith in his bench, with the Suns up 20+ pts waited until the final four minutes to take out Nash, Amare, and Marion. If it hadn't been for those two minutes at the end of the 3Q, the bench would probably have gotten more minutes and allowed Denver to save some face. (Bench plays at same high speed without the edge, so can give up pts very fast).
FWIW, many Suns fans have had it with D'Antoni for not developing his bench. They think that the coach is seriously damaging the Suns playoff chances by relying on only six or seven players.
