NUGGETS and GEORGE KARL betting angle??

lakerboy · 02-18-10, 10:32 AM

They could use it as a motivational tool for a few games. I just think they have been off for a whole week so may be ready or maybe rusty. They did end the break with a horrible loss. It is too many points to be handing to this squad.

If Melo is playing I feel Nugs give Cavs a battle and due to mixed chemistry going on in Clevland,and Lebron trys to take on the team on his shoulder...usually doesnt work out...
I feel Nuggets can squeak one out,if not definetly cover..
What you think Fish ?

Game opened -6 and is up to -7

I think taking +7 now is good value, as my thoughts are this line will drop back down................

Tough call, that's why I'm asking.

dimon · 02-18-10, 10:40 AM

DEN +7 is a good play I think

kobefanatic · 02-18-10, 10:42 AM

i think den +7 and over 206 is a good play

Deuce · 02-18-10, 10:45 AM

Over

Too many variables in my opinion

l7ustin · 02-18-10, 11:58 AM

overs and denver

og4667 · 02-18-10, 12:07 PM

I think the George Karl situation will affect Denver's defense. Nugs can score with the best of them but GK always has trouble getting his guys to play D and if they get down early they might give up. I don't think the Nugs have the blue collar attitude it takes to win in Cleveland or cover.

jjgold · 02-18-10, 12:42 PM

Over, now your talking about Cleve who has the best player in the NBA and are the best team in the NBA. They are home too so Cleve has to be the play.

Then in the news conference, Karl said this team would be in "playoff mode" over the next couple weeks.......ummm. They have a great coaching staff in Denver, one of the very best in the league.

Trust me, the Nuggets players do not care much about Karl, in addition they are a bunch of thugs, look at all their stupid tatoos, dont think these idiots will try to win games for Karl, they dont give a ****

GiveMeaBJ · 02-18-10, 02:44 PM

Is Jamison playing?

suicidekings · 02-18-10, 02:55 PM

I can see what you're saying about a motivated showing from Denver tonight, but I think the most likely effect from it is higher scoring tonight on both sides. I think the bigger factor in the game is how Jamison fits into the Cavs lineup tonight. IMO, his transition will be very smooth and will be out to prove himself tonight. As for the rest of the Cavs, they're going for a franchise record in consecutive wins tonight and to me that motivation outweighs anything the Nuggets will bring to the table.

I haven't made any plays yet, but I'm leaning towards the Over and Cavs.

This post is spot on. You can't twist things to make this siuation go one way.

They will either be out of it and in a sad/confused state of mine, or they will be better than ever.

Look at this clown's stupid comments.. Fade material there, Nugs it is.

jmiezie · 02-18-10, 04:28 PM

I love the nuggs in this spot.. I will take the points here.. I think the nuggs match up well with the cavs cept for Shaq but he wont play much.

PittsburghPlayer · 02-18-10, 06:05 PM

Denver. Think they may be motivated 7 seems like enough to get the cover. I am a Mello fan, hope the outright.

capitalist pig · 02-18-10, 06:09 PM

I like Denver and the points tonight .

later

BettingWizard · 02-18-10, 07:01 PM

never good to have a stoppage of play when you are on a big winning streak

and Karl having cancer. Easy call to play the nuggets here

whatsgood5 · 02-18-10, 07:09 PM

I am on the Cavs here. I just don't think the Nuggets will be too focused for this one.

NO

Whoever said he was above is wrong. The word is the players going to LA and Washington won't have their physicals in time to make the trade official and Jamison playable.

Mo Williams is back tonight though!

Good to know, I've always been a fan of Mo since his Milwuakee days

Mac4Lyfe · 02-18-10, 07:48 PM

I have a feeling Mo won't play tonight. Either way the Cav's will cover the line. I expect the Cav's to go up double digits in the 1st half and Denver make a run in the 3rd only for the Cav's to stretch it out in the end. Cav's by 12/13 tonight for an easy cover.

frostno98 · 02-18-10, 07:50 PM

Nuggets all the way. Cavs is still a one man gang, until Jamison joins the squad.

Shaq is going to own the Nugget's tonight... 20/10 watch and weep

yeah right....shaq is horrible...He has a better chance of getting a heart attack.

Fishhead · 02-18-10, 10:35 PM

We head to OVERTIME

whatsgood5 · 02-18-10, 10:40 PM

Should be a great finish. Don't think the Cavs will be able to cover though unfortunately.

masr · 02-18-10, 10:43 PM

Great battle between Melo and Lebron...
I have Denv + pts....definetly will cash

masr · 02-18-10, 10:53 PM

Like I said Lebron cant do it on his own, but DAMN he was close!!

whatsgood5 · 02-18-10, 10:58 PM

Great game, surprised Lebron was unable to come up big. Nuggets deserved this win though
