Is Denver being favored over Det a trick?

Denver is very solid at home and Detroit is on a back to back

What do you mean? Do you think Det should be favored? Which side do you think has value?

Thats exactly what I was thinking too. Detroit looked solid against Phoenix. They looked untouchable.

A year ago Detroit blew out Phoenix on the road as well (105-83), only to lose the next game at home to Dallas. They played with playoff intensity yesterday and will almost certainly not maintain that type of focus tonight.

I don't bet the NBA at all, but hasn't this line swung back-&-forth all day?

rjt721 · 02-25-08, 07:00 PM

If anything, I'd say this line's short. Denver's 22-6 SU at home, and they have only once had shorter odds on their home court than tonight's -2 (pk last week against the Celtics).

Nuggets are Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde.

It could be a blowout either way

The HG · 02-25-08, 07:05 PM

Well I'm on Denver. It's true Detroit has the "elite" team spirit inside of them, which leaves them shockingly immune at times to all kinds of conventional wisdom regarding back-to-backs, big road faves, etc etc, and it's always treacherous to bet on them to lose a game outright, but I think they might have a tough time here. If they dominate, then that's that, but I'm willing to take a standard shot with them on the large side here. GL everyone.

No trick here, I think Denver should be favored by 3. They suck on the road, but responds well to the home crowd. The nuggets can be down 10 points or more all day and still pull out a victory at home. Seen them do it numerous of times already, so go nuggets!

jjgold · 02-25-08, 08:06 PM

Denver took some late money, well it is not late yet, my boys popped it also now at -2, could go to 2.5.

awatkins011 · 02-25-08, 08:08 PM

I'm on Detroit +2. Hoping they stay hot!

Took the Pistons at +115 - after yesterday I think it was an easy pick - hope I'm right.

awatkins011 · 02-25-08, 11:25 PM

Big win tonight Detroit! Stay hot fellas

Poker_Beast · 02-25-08, 11:27 PM

Looks like I made the right choice. Ugly weekend so I needed it!

Congrats to those that hit.

Haven't seen a D' that suffocating in Denver, since San Antonio showed up in the playoffs last year. Tough nice win for the pistons.

Deuce · 02-26-08, 01:09 AM

Pistons looked solid. If they can play like they have the past two nights, they will be solid for the playoffs.

Karl is just a loser, he cannot coach

You can't win with AI it is just prove, Oliver Miller was a better fit there and more of a team player. Ball hogs just don't have a big impact on winning in the nba.

Olly Miller is a fukkin hamburger bum who refuses to get back on D and has cost punters millions. he'll eventually lose his teeth and wind up laying brick side by side with willy perry of the bears in south carolina
