Denver-Golden State+14 home
Denver was the victim of desperately Minnesota last Sunday. Despite they had the lead with 15 point midway through the second quarter, fall at the end to lowly T-Wolves.
Billups and Melo are the leaders of the team and I’m waiting to bounce back after the stunning result and poor performance on the second half on Sunday. The bench with Smith and ‘’Birdman’’ Andersen usually give boost during the second unit. The rookie Lawson is very fast on the backup point guard’s role and takes minute over Anthony Carter.

Golden State played yesterday against Indiana, in a game that decided at the last quarter. Leading scorer Monta Ellis made career high with 45 points. He along to Morrow played 42 and 41 minutes respectively and the other talented youngster Anthony Randolph left the game with sprained ankle, living space to Chris Hunter to take minutes.

Golden State has only Mikki Moore and perhaps Rony Turiaf in limited time, in the paint. I think Nene and K-Mart they haven’t any problem to dominate on the boards and to low post. Melo is on 30 points territory every night.
On the other hand, Golden State they have fatigue issues due b2b games and Monta Ellis will be the target of the opposite defense.
I expect the factor Minny’s lost game to act as alarm for the Nuggets and I bet on a blowout win.

Few words for the rest games.
Charlotte-Boston 179,5 under
Larry Brown never let his teams to run and score points. Long possessions and focus on the defense.

Toronto-Washington+6,5 away
Big numbers on the spread. Arenas-Jamison-Butler are all stars players.

New York-Phoenix-7,5 home
Coach D’Antoni knows very well his old team

Portland-Miami+7 away
Portland was surprisingly bad in the last two games.

L.A.Lakers-New Orleans 203 over
The Lakers always are on century mark on points category.
New Orleans after Scott’s departure seems to play more offensive.
