    This looks too easy. Im thinking of hammering the money line for an easy victory. What do you guys think about this game and this shady line?

        Moneys been all over the Wiz, I'm from DC (not living there currently, but I follow the team extremely closely)I think the common belief that this team is now on par with the Wolves and is in the Nets zipcode is very off, and Vegas and the sharps know this. Josh Howard is happy to be out of dallas, Blatche and McGee are loving getting PT, and Singleton is busting his ass. Denver isn't nearly the same team on the road as they are at home, and they did play a draining game last night on the other side of the country

            DEN is -5.5 because they played a quality team in CLE last night, are on the road (again) for the 2nd of a b2b, and as mentioned plkayed OT.... The books are also expecting you to bet on DEN, have you considered that?

                No, he's confusing the state of Washington with Washington D.C. Don't worry, D.C. and Cleveland are on the same side of the country.

                  No, he's saying from Denver it's the other side.

                        In the NBA anything possible, but it's unlikely that Denver's going to lose the -240. The wiz don't really have any go to scorer's left to give them constant points, while the Nuggets can still really on one of their big 3. JR, Billups, and Melo would of all have to be completely off their game for them to lose this.

                              I just took Den ML at -255

                              If they lose to the joke of a team known as the Washington Wizards I will not be a happy camper

                                  and it seems to good to be true....Denver went into the 4th q with +9 points lead, and now -5 with 3 minutes left, and it looks to be over....unbelievable

                                                Wow, was this game setup or rigged by Vegas or what? I watched the entire 4th quarter. George Karl benched Anthony and Billups way too long in the 4th, until only 5 minutes was left in game. By then, the Wizards already have 5 point lead and all the momentum.

                                                Karl mistake in not letting his two floor leaders back in the game when he was sensing trouble cost them this game. If the Nuggets really wanted this win they would of got it easily. I'm just puzzled why Karl didn't call any timeouts in the 4th quarter at all. Especially with all the easy layups they were giving up.
