Houston Rockets at Denver Nuggets

**demens** · 01-03-11, 04:05 PM

I was thinking about making a thread on this game.

A bit biased towards Rox, not a fan of their but for some reason i like them. Denver is a team with inflated lines at home. They are a great home team with a poor home 6-10 ATS, wonder why that is. Rcokets have a better road ATS then that. Nuggs to play a bit better 3-3ATS at home vs good teams which the Rox are. The rest are pretty even stat wise.

B2B is not a factor. Rockets are perfectly average 4-4ATS (3-5SU) on b2bs. They are also coming off a blow out loss where noone played a lot of minutes and its not like they are traveling across the country.

Def dont think Nuggs are 7 points better but i'm on the fense on this one.

Nuggets should cover the 7, Denver has been a tough place for the ROckets to play.

under 217.5 looks good to me

Denver -7...... B2B in Denver is never good

**demens** · 01-03-11, 04:57 PM

1-2 ATS home facing a team on a b2b this year. 9-8 last year, 8-8 the year before, 8-7 the year before, 7-8 the year before and 6-6 the year before.

So b2b in Denver has been good plenty of times.

Back to back is overrated. Don't you think the oddsmakers took that into account? Denver is overvalued here. I like Houston to cover.

**forloveofthegame** · 01-03-11, 05:18 PM

for all you saying b2b. all the rockets starters played less than 24 minutes last night. perhaps looking ahead. dont think b2b is much of a factor. only thing for sure about this game is there will be a made basket every time down the court

I like Houston here.

They have not covered in their last 4 games. I think Denver is overrated. And Denver is 3-9-1 ATS on Mondays.

I'll take the rockets and hope...

Ahhh, one of my favorite stats.

Oh those Mondays, noone really like them do they.

The rockets have been playing garbage teams. They aren't near as good as they seem lately. Billups has been on fire. Carmillo has had a game to knock the rust off. As if playing in Denver isn't hard enough, the rockets are on a b2b.

Total is set very high. Possibly far too high.
