720 DEN -4.0 (-110) Westgate vs 719 DAL
dime bet
Analysis:1* Take Denver (#720)
The Mavs locked up the #7 seed with their win over Phoenix on Wednesday Night. This veteran squad has all kinds of key contributors with nicks and bruises, but we’ve seen money come in on Dallas today, expecting Rick Carlisle to play his starters. From all indications, the Mavs starters will play. But how much they play in the fourth quarter is another question entirely, because for Dallas, being healthy and fresh next weekend matters one heck of a lot more than how they look tonight in the Mile High air of the Pepsi Center against a Nuggets team that has been running opponents out of the gym at home since Melvin Hunt took over for Brain Shaw as head coach.
Denver is 5-2 in their last seven at home, including wins over the Warriors, Hawks and Jazz. They’ve averaged well over 110 points per game in those victories, picking up the pace. After losing four straight last week (three tough road games and a bad home loss to the Clippers), Coach Hunt made it very clear what he expected from his team down the stretch: “We want to take care of business in these three home games….We want to come out and make sure we play well in this home stretch.” They started that stretch with an 18 point blowout over the Lakers on Wednesday, and wouldn’t be shocked in the slightest if they approach a similar margin of victory this evening. Take the Nuggets.
