Nuggets having a lot of confidence coming off impressive performance against Lakers
1 day rest
Dallas is coming off OT game and 0 days rest. Will take a few weeks before Dirk is in top form, and for the team to mesh with him.
Why line isn't in Nuggets favor heavily? Because they are known for being a bad road team, but I like this spot as they have extra rest and more energy, confidence, and momentum.
I'd take my chances with Nuggets -1.5. If Mavs win, I'll tip my hat to them.
This line makes me nervous. You would think that Denver would be bigger favorites after completely running over the Lakers and with the Mavs going to OT last night. These kind of lines always bury people. Vegas is basically begging you to take Denver and they will probably lose straight up. I'd stay away.
I will go with the Mavs. They are a decent home team and in desperation mode. Their next game after this is against the Spurs, surely they will work alot harder to get this win rather than the next 1.
