    Will the Nuggets offer value now that Carmello is gone for 15 games?



    I think we should track how the Nuggets do ATS w/o their star player. Should be very interesting.

    -3.5 seems like a pretty conservative spread on this game, i foresee a double digit loss for nuggets. first game without a superstar is usually like headless chickens running around, was destroyed philly in the same situation. opinions?

    4* wizards -3.5
    2* under 209

    if that doesn't go too well, hopefully mavs and hornets can cover their spreads. if that falls through too, i might just spend the next few days crying in my pillow.

    Funny you should mention this one bud.

    Heres the consensus numbers from Carib:

    Wizards vs Nuggets
    Wizards 95.56%
    Nuggets 4.44%
    Looks like everyone and there brother is on the Wizards tonight, but I think we all expected that. However, getting back to your value question. I feel it's best to avoid this game at all costs, because who knows what to really expect.

    it scares me to go with the herd, but the Wizards make their living beating up on the downtrodden. look for Jamison to have a big game tonight. (he and Butler will go for at least 50 combined)

    tennis_balls, Whats scary is the fact that this line was steaming downward I noticed. I see it's currently -2.5 at TheGreek right now.

    check it out on sbrodds

    i thought about going with the wiz but backed off

    the 2nd half line should be interesting

    A wager on the Wizards in the 2nd half maybe the way to go. Your right, it will be interesting to see.

    I was talking to my friend and told him sometimes teams play well w/o their star players..

    Lakers are 3-0 w/o Kobe..

    Considering the fact that the line makers are aware of him being out, as well as the public, I may be playing Denver more.
