Phoenix Suns at Denver Nuggets Prediction
While it was rationale to lay the Suns by virtue of an overreaction against the Minnesota Timberwolves after they beat the Toronto Raptors, it is sound to mention that this Phoenix Suns teams has beaten premier teams such as San Antonio as well. However, these results all came when the heat was off the Suns and no one expected much of them. This situation typifies what we look for when we want to take action with the Suns. The bottom line is Denver has always been an offense-first basketball team. The Nuggets like to score in flurries and do not care if they fall behind by double-digit point totals be that they expect to make that difference up in an instance. Phoenix plays a similar style of basketball and thus we can have what football enthusiasts call a “shootout” in our midst. Academically it is always prudent to take points in a shootout situation in football betting and we can apply this stratagem to this contest in particular. Phoenix is being given way too many points against a Denver Nuggets team that also likes to leave the defense at home. Given the styles of both teams here, anything is possible. Take the points.
Free Pick:
Take Phoenix +6.5
