NBA Thursday [B]704 Denver -4.5[/B]
Denver has looked horrible lately and their recent five game road trip 1-4 didn't help. Now, Denver is back in the friendly confines of the Pepsi Center where the Nuggets are 30-6 and 7-1 L8 SUP including a home win over Portland 118-106 as a -7 point chalk.
Portland who just played last night against the road weary Knicks must travel to the Mile High City where we expect a top notch effort from Denver to get back on the playoffs track.
This is one of my favorite angles where a team competed against a weak opponent and then in their next match travels on the road to face a much stronger team. The likelihood that the road team can go in there and win that game is slim. The line is a little low IMO and early money has shown on Denver as well.
