    Clippers @ Nuggets, will the winning streak end here?

    Nuggets -1.

    Leaning to the Nuggets. They are a good home record team(Clips won the last 2 in Denver though) and players who got the legs to match them.

    Clippers look like a championship team right now hard to fade 17 straight wins. I think Stern gets them to 20

    Oh man and look at the schedule. What's the 20th potential win going to be? The LAKERS. NBA script can't get any better.

    Nuggets were going to be an automatic play for me until I saw that. Now I don't know if the NBA conspiracy refs will be sent out or not to set up the win streak showdown in LA.

    Good lord, do you change the tinfoil on your head between posting this and posting about George Bush ordering the towers knocked down and Obama being born in another country?

    Squares have been cashing big by riding the Clips win streak, on the ml particularly.

    I have a feeling books are gambling here by putting this game at PK, and believe theyll get heavy money on LAC - and expect them to lose...and they'll recover on their losses big time with this.

    I think many of us thought the win streak would end here and I think the best play is to roll with Vegas here and play on Denver. Cuz I can't believe Clips didn't open at ATLEAST -2 the way they've been playing.

    This game intrigues me. If I'm Vegas, why not open at Clippjoint -2 or -3? They would still get tons of public money on them. Can't seem to figure this line out. I know Nuggets r tough at home but the Clippjoint r young and go 10 deep. Their team is relentless all game. I'm leaning Clippjoint big but can't seem to get past the "trap" line. Someone talks me out of Clippjoint for half a dime.

    Clippers was a favourite at Jazz(another good home team) despite playing b2b. I agree with some people here saying Clippers should be a at least a -2 favourite with the way they are playing.

    The line open at Clippers -1, over 70% public on them, line moved to +1. Similar to Thunder unbeaten streak line before they play the Timberwolves.

    My biggest question is when did the Clippers fly into Denver or are they on their way this morning?

    I see where you're going with this but I don't think it's gonna matter. This team is almost unstoppable right now. I don't see a reason to start fading them. I was thinking Nuggets but not gonna over think it. Clippjoint roll.

    too many people want to be the one to call the end of the winning streak. Anyone have any basketball reasons for taking Denver and not just line movement and "well the streak can't go on forever"?

    I doubt any of them do. I'm on Clips for this.

    Man...This game seems like a HUGE trap.Surprised Clips aren't -3. I'm really tempted to go heavy on the Clips. Seeing how they demolished Denver on X-Mas. But they just failed to cover in Utah a couple games back, in a game they had no business winning. The air is even thinner in Denver. Errh I still see Clips winning by around 8 and be mad at myself for my betting later tonight.

    I'm still leaning towards Nuggets. At the moment, I believe every team will be extra-motivated to stop them. Will make a decision depending on how my earlier plays go.

    People calling this a trap are clueless. Books set the line perfectly for this game to balance action.

    Lawson is out but no changes to the line? Not even half a point?

    Vegas laid a perfect trap.

    Next time I know to bet opposite of my instincts in these games. Lawson out.McGee making 3s. LA getting blown out. The NBA is riggged.
