The Denver Nuggets are hosting the Los Angeles Clippers tonight after they scored 140 points against the Golden State Warriors two nights ago. The home team is looking forward to a good performance by superstar Carmelo Anthony, who lifeted his gameplay in the last few games drastically, and efforts of Marcus Camby in the paint in terms of rebounds and blocks to win tonight’s match up against the Clippers. The away team is aware of the fact that once the margin has been established, comeback against a team that knows how to score is going to be tough. Hence, the main aim of both teams is going to be on scoring.  Therefore the pick for this game is Over 214 for 4 units.

The San Antonio Spurs are traveling to Seattle to challenge the Supersonics after a close loss to Dallas. Having concede 39 points in the first period of the game, the Spurs managed to consolidate their defense and come back in the middle of the third quarter. On the other side of the court, the Supersonics lost to Sacramento two days ago, scoring less than what they were expected to. Inefficiency in scoring gameplay is due to concentration, and tonight’s game may be an example of that. The pick is Under 198 for 4 units.

The Los Angeles Lakers are returning home after a loss to the Jazz even with the efforts of Kobe Bryant and Lamar Odom. This team works hard, and Kobe, being a smarter player now, normally gets itself out of trouble. Odom’s role in the team is substantial, and Luke Walton must be there, too. On the other side, New Jersey, after losing to Phoenix, need a win, but they must get significant contribution from Jason Kidd and Vince Carter. The gameplay of these two is likely to draw the scheme of tonight’s game, but Lakers are two steps ahead of the Nets, having a better discipline for now. Lakers –4.5 is the pick for 4 units.
