Good Evening PreGamers!
In what has turned out to be one of the most over-due sackings in recent years in the NBA has finally occurred as the Denver Nuggets have relieved Brian Shaw of his coaching duties. Many of the Denver players didn’t get on well with Shaw and he had a very unique way of running the team. I am not one for accusing players of ‘Tanking’ but they certainly haven’t been playing well over the last few weeks!
With Shaw being shown the door, I fully expect Denver to bring a full 48 minute energized performance tonight. As 5.5 point underdogs, I see real value in the home side in this one. Usually when a team has their Head Coach sacked, the betting market is all over that team but because of how bad the Nuggets have looked in recent games, this line hasn't wavered at all. I’ll take the points and back the ‘Shawless’ Nuggets tonight.
DENVER NUGGETS + 5.5
