Denver +5 against Magic

Vulcan300 · 03-18-11, 06:42 AM

books gave us +5 denver cause of their current streak and are pretty sure magic will crush. accuscore has magic winning with a high %, even though some people could care less about this; i like to double check it with leans.

ride the denver train, but def don't go big if you do. better spot to fade nuggets would prob be their b2b on sat vs heat. even then books might give you +5 again or more; to hook you.

Since the Melo trade denver has been hell to deal with... Deep young and talented... This team is scary and has been proving... I will continue to ride the wave as i think the nuggets will beat orl but ill take the points... GL!!!

It's hard not to like Denver right now, but consider a few things;
1) Denver is currently riding a 4 game winning streak. Can they really win 5 in a row?
2) They're in Orlando tonight...Denver is a much better team at home. They're 14-20 on the road this season.
3) Orlando is good at home...they're 24-11 at home this year.
4) Denver crushed Orlando when they met back in December, 111-94, but that was with Melo.

I like Orlando here...

i think denver is becoming too known now during the streak. i wanna see what the line does, but i have this feeling orl drops the hammer with 3 balls all night

nbarlotta3 · 03-18-11, 07:53 AM

Denver is on a back to back............

swaindexter · 03-18-11, 08:12 AM

Carefull, looks like a trap here. Orl should win going away in this game.

Champ4all · 03-18-11, 08:39 AM

Been going back n fourth all night with this 1, I like da Nuggs a lot thinking about teasing it to +7 not decided yet tho.. GL!!!

dude_bg · 03-18-11, 10:13 AM

jj redick is out and magic have no bench - only arenas who can't shoot the ball well recently

shermanator · 03-18-11, 10:19 AM

dude_bg · 03-18-11, 10:24 AM

ohnevah · 03-18-11, 10:28 AM

no they're not...

line up to 6. orlando appears to be the play. with how well den has been playing, its telling that sharp money has been on orl early

M.W. · 03-18-11, 10:47 AM

That concerns me, but I can't see any reason for it, which concerns me even more. But I'm playing Denver.

dude_bg · 03-18-11, 10:48 AM

i am wondering shall i bet the same units on magic-5 so i can cancell my den-5 bet
and then move to den+6
it is only the juice that i lose

blinky88 · 03-18-11, 10:53 AM

Denver is the play

million2one · 03-18-11, 11:03 AM

Not sure how to read lines and how much credence to put into it.
But not knowing anything about line moves, I would say Denver is the play for sure.

Fleeben · 03-18-11, 11:04 AM

The magic are terrible

Ratatata · 03-18-11, 11:28 AM

That's the best input you could contribute to this thread?

Orlando is 43-26 and have clinched a playoff berth.

panik · 03-18-11, 12:06 PM

I like it, Im on it also.

bleek88 · 03-18-11, 12:22 PM

THIS IS NOT A GOOD PLAY THIS IS A TRAP GAME

DO NOT PLAY THE NUGGETS HERE.

js.

M.W. · 03-18-11, 12:24 PM

Why is it a trap?

xlilweezeex · 03-18-11, 12:41 PM

Denver or nothing (trap or not)....I'll take the bait...

M.W. · 03-18-11, 12:45 PM

Every Denver line looks like a trap these days. I always wonder what I'm missing, and then the Nuggets cover again.

Jerm3462 · 03-18-11, 12:53 PM

My whole bankroll and sbr points are on Denver+6.

I'm all in.

I'm doubling everything or going out in a blaze of glory.

MattysBLAZIN · 03-18-11, 01:03 PM

im on denver also..if gallanari plays they will only be better

suicidekings · 03-18-11, 01:04 PM

There's no question in this game. I love the new-look Nuggets as much as anyone, but Orlando is the play here. The Nuggets' playing style was too much for the slow-paced Hornets and Hawks, but the Magic are an entirely different animal that responds well to opponents with aggressive playing styles.

Denver is playing extremely well right now, so I would never describe this game as an opportunity to go big on the Magic, but betting the Nuggets here is a mistake.

iSuperfly · 03-18-11, 01:04 PM

the public continues to disrespect Denver, I think they were +5 against the Hawks and blew them out.

toobs1990 · 03-18-11, 01:45 PM

even if it is a trap, the nuggs are hot and im riding the wave all the way out.

Why are you purposely posting such a misleading statement? The Hawks were -1 faves 2 days ago, and that was only because the Nuggets could not be favoured in Atlanta... The Hawks are soft, while the Magic are not.

Talk about misleading posts

Look at yours. You talk about Denver as if they only beat Atl & NO. Denver is 6-1 in its last 7 with wins @phoenix and @Utah and they stomped the Bobcats by 40...their only loss in March was @LAC. by 6pts.

Give credit where credit is due.

The Hawks are only 3 games from taking Orlando's playoffs spot. I am sure Orlando want home court advantage. Besides, they still have a chance to get ahead of Miami.

denver goes down 2nite.

All four teams that you mentioned Denver beating are going NO WHERE!

I like Denver as much as the next man but you can't use wins against the suns, jazz and bobcats as an axcuse to bet them against orlando. They lost to LAC by 6 for christs sake. Orlando coming of the road trip is not a good thing, and they looked like shit against the Bucks, but then again, MIL had something to prove after beeing stomped badly in their two previous games.

I think Dwight will have a big game tonight, maybe even getting Nene in early foul trouble. Bass will do his best againt K-Mart and Nelson should get his way against felton.

I think you have to go with ORL here, but yes, 6 points is a lot to give this Denver team which has been riding high and enjoy their basketball for the first time in a long time. Might just put ORL ML in a parlay.
