lets discuss a smart way to play this denver game

[vancityswag]

so...sketchy line

and of course everything discussed here would be hypothetical....but what if we bet on the spread and the ml for denver....and hedge it if/when denver is up a few...

any veterans out there with a plan? over looks good too

[Sport_Fish]

That could work...except I think OKC is the type of team, esp with a big revenge factor in play, that could just run over the Nuggets from start to finish and never let them get any decent lead.

And the way the line is set, I think Vegas is expecting Denver to get run over. But still, live betting could work but too risky if ur gonna be fully dependent on Denver getting a big enough lead.

[vancityswag]

yea youre right. obviously its all hypothetical and maybe the play is just to not touch it but if done right, given the line, i feel like alot of money could be made right?

[Brebos]

I'm thinking vegas is setting up the denver betters, the +9 seems like a steal for an awesome team like denver right....right xD. Welcome to the oklahoma blow out city thunders .

Oklahoma is 25-9 ATS at home if thats any help.

Divisional rivalry game highlights, Nuggets playing their second game in as many nights after an OT win in Chicago yesterday. The home team is a perfect 3-0 ATS in these games this year and Denver has won the last two. The Thunder are looking for revenge from the 105-103 loss they took in Mile High at the beginning of the month.

Some may be deterred from the home team tonight given it’s quite a few points to give a quality team like the Nuggets. But in the only other game played IN OKC, the Thunder were 9-point favorites and ended up winning in a runaway; 117-97. And coincidently, that game has quite a lot in common with tonight’s spot.

Not only is tonight’s game in OKC again but Denver was coming off an OT win the night before that time as well.

As much as Denver would like to catch the Thunder for the division crown, they known that it’s highly unlikely given that they are 4 1/2 games behind them and Oklahoma City will continue to win down the stretch. The Nuggets managed to scratch and claw for a win in Chicago last night and splitting these two games in two nights against two quality opponents is something that George Karl can live with.

Oklahoma City has won three straight coming into tonight and although they have a big game at Memphis tomorrow night, there is zero chance they are looking past the Nuggets. Denver’s known for their run-and-gun style and the energy in their legs simply won’t be there tonight after a tough OT game in Chicago last night. OKC likes to run as well, and in similar fashion to their first meeting in this building, the Thunder should run Denver out of this building.

That is an interesting reading from Vegasinsider

The o.t. scares me just a bit however allowing the offensively challenged Bullshits to score almost 120 even with an o.t. scares me as well. Denver had that game in hand up 8/12 pts in 4th and somehow blew it. Maybe looking ahead to Tues. , maybe fatigue set in, I don't know but this line says OKC in my opinion. May just wait this out and hope for a close 1h or even Denver lead going into half and hammer the Thunder 2h. GL

3rd quarter is the bet. Denver gonna come out running, but that juice gonna fade in the second. They just came off a OT win in chicago and they are not fully refreshed. OKC gonna roll when they let up. Under 215 also. No way denver scoring that much tonight.
