    Nuggets +2 @ Lakers

    I don't know much about NBA - mainly I only fade bad teams. I like this play at first glance, since it's the slightly better team getting points. However, I know the Lakers could easily smack the Nuggets at home. Any thoughts from those more well-versed?

    The Nuggets are 0-10 ATS since Dec of '14 after a double digit loss in which they were out shot by at-least 10 percent

    Ah yeah - no good. I did see they've won 4 straight @Lakers though, and 9-1 SU in last 10 overall. Maybe the trends offset.

    I saw some stat about denver off 10 point loss too.. Just means smaller play on them.. Always fade lakers, the whole season. They are in EXTREME tank mode. worse than last year. they really want ben simmons

    trends don't mean anything when rosters change. i would put more emphasis on trends if teams were practically the same, but they've altered a lot.

    Agreed. Just looking for some angle other than "Lakers suck".

    yeah, these teams matchup pretty well with one another. i think the difference tonight if the lakers are going to win is going to be bryant. the nuggets don't have any good perimeter defenders that can guard him. so it's just a matter of if his shot is falling or not.

    Sounds like a coin flip then, and so not worth a bet.

    Lol, Kobe career shooting % is ~45%. Base on your statement, i would play Nuggets all night, cuz they have 55% that Kobe not making a basket.

    My book made a mistake. I got LIVE Denver +1 at about 7 min mark up 10 pts. Maxed that shit out!
