    Nuggets at Celtics - Something's gotta give

    Denver has won 9 in a row. Boston has won 6 in a row. Celtics are a 2 pt fave.

    I think the Nugs take this one.

    Yeah, Celtics are now being forced to play an up-tempo game with Rondo out which is what Denver is known for. I could see the over hitting easily.

    Who says the Celts won't slow Denver down and turn it into a halfcourt game? Tough one to call but I lean green here!

    Looks like a Denver line to me. Why isn't Boston at least -3 with Denver on a b2b?

    Riding the Celtics. They always seem to cover for me when everyone is against them.

    GL. Not a big fan of Denver.

    Doc Rivers is a good coach. I don't think he'll get into an uptempo game with Denver. I would expect Boston to play physical and not give up easy transition buckets.

    Reasons I like Boston:

    - Boston is 10 games over .500 at home.
    - Denver is 11-15 on the road
    - Denver is on a B2B
    - Denver is one of the worst free throw shooting teams in the league
    - Boston is playing with a chip on their should right now as evidenced by their 6 game winning streak. This is sort of like how teams play when their best player is out but it also reminds me of how the Nuggets went on a winning streak after Melo got traded a few years ago.

    Anyway, GL. Just my opinions.

    BigDofBA, you think OKC will roll the Suns again even though this is the last game of the four game series at Sun's?

    Obviously Nugs didn't take it.

    I actually liked the Suns tonight even though OKC has dominated this year. It's the week before the All-Star break and OKC ends the first half of the season Thursday against the Heat. It's not a great spot for OKC. With that said, watching the game now, the Suns can't make anything.
