might be true. i have a good feeling this will be determined by whichever team goes on a late run in the closing minute or two. If you do wait hopefully you can get a better line and not a worse one

Nuggets +7 5u

Plugged this play in last night. Just a gut play that is all! Melo being out hurts cause I was expecting a big game from him.

bounce back day. All winners here

sixers +9.5 .5u
okc/ny ov216.5 1.5u
Houston un206 .5u

Would you lower your unit if you knew Melo was out?

Yes this would be a one to two unit play. The fact line hasn't moved much since the news its very positive and doesn't take away the fact that nuggets are the play imo

forloveofthegame · 12-22-10, 05:02 PM

Illini -1 2u

Big day for me gonna sit back enjoy some beers and an early christmas

forloveofthegame · 12-22-10, 10:14 PM

forloveofthegame · 12-22-10, 10:55 PM

Wow **** that game!!!!

But we can still cash that ticket

forloveofthegame · 12-22-10, 11:09 PM

Illini give up 9 pts in 9 seconds. unfucking believable

yes they do. as a fan of Denver im very pissed and how that went down but what can you do. spurs are at home you expect them to win the game in that situation. overall a very positive game for Denver. Looking forward to all the games on christmas day

lyon804 · 12-23-10, 01:50 AM

Nuggets played a good game, but if you want to win on the road you can't allow the other team to shoot (14-28) from 3... Other than that Nuggets did a fine job. They cashed.

lyon804 · 12-23-10, 01:52 AM

Also, heads up Nuggets starters beat Spurs starters tonite.. As a group Spurs bench went nuts against Nuggets.

forloveofthegame · 12-23-10, 01:56 AM

bonner in the start of the 4th went off and you cant leave out the guy who got posterized

lyon804 · 12-23-10, 02:58 AM

lol..yeah he had a very good game as well. also i believe splitter played well also. if i am not mistaken spurs bench had around a +15 over nuggets, but thats to be expected when jr is producing as a starter versus his roll off bench. i guess it sucks to be a fan knowing mello is likely gone. too many athletes believe the grass is always greener elsewhere.

Yeah nuggets are about to fall apart. I will follow wherever jr goes.I'm hoping he ends up with the bulls as im from chicago. Melo is on his way out tho that's for sure

I realize the market in Denver ain't near what it is in the other premium cities across the NBA, but Denver seems like such a neat place to live,play. Problem is athletes like "mello".. $25 mil a year ain't good enough. They want what the big market brings.. more money, more fame, more endorsements. Mello, going to NYC would boost his value, but winning a championship for NYC even with Mello is alot furthur away than most know or think.

Is JR your favorite player? is there talk about him leaving? I don't know his contract status.

forloveofthegame · 12-23-10, 04:55 PM

I was suprised at first when I heard melo wanted out.
I have been following jr since his rookie year. Reports are bulls are very interested but nuggets are holding back because he might be needed in a trade involving melo. His contact is up this year and its very cheap like 6 mil. The way hes been playing since the benching there shouldn't be a team in the league that wouldn't want him atleast coming off the bench.

Totally agree. JR, was the ATS covering machine for the Nuggs last year at home. When the Nuggets were healthy and focused they could put that guy in a game a drop 30 off the bench? Super athletic.. Gary Neal agrees.

tqpolo · 12-24-10, 12:39 AM

Kings practically giving the game to the Bucks the last half of 4Q. They couldn't even do the fouls/quick shots in the last min correctly.

pacocn · 12-24-10, 12:44 AM
