Earlier game on the board for the day. SA is currently a 5 point fav. (-5.5 at some shops) THe money is evenly distributed between the 2 for ATS plays, but DEN is catching 87% of the ML cash.
"Tony Parker (sprained ankle) is not expected to play against the Nuggets on Sunday.
We haven't heard an exact timetable for Parker yet, but George Hill/Roger Mason are capable replacements. The Spurs will certainly allow Parker to get back to 100 percent, especially because he wasn't looking like his old self before this sprain."
"Carmelo Anthony (sprained ankle) said he is optimistic that he will return to action on Sunday.
"I'm better, much better," Anthony said. "I'm going to try before the game, but it felt good (in practice Saturday). It's the first time that I actually got a chance to run and cut and do a lot of things." The Nuggets have wisely played it very safe with Anthony."
What'a ya guys think about the home team catching 5 points here?
