Houston Rockets (60-34) at Los Angeles Lakers (72-21)
:think2:nuggets
The hot Nuggets are 10-0 against the spread in the playoffs and are 9-3 ATS in their last 12 games as an underdog on the road, but the Lakers went 10-2 ATS versus Denver and 13-3 ATS in the last 16 clashes against them in Los Angeles.
It should be a very competitive series. The Lakers are more talented, while Denver is confident and a good deal more spirited. The Nuggets went 1-3 against the Lakers this season, but have step up in the playoffs, playing the best of this year. In addition, Chauncey Billups is in the lineup and Denver is now playing sound defense. Kobe definitely will need to maximize his talent to beat the surging Nuggets. I believe each game in this series will be close hard fought battle. Take the points tonight in Game 1 with the rested Nuggets.
Houston Rockets +6.5 I think he means the Nuggets :think2:
