Lakers vs. Nuggets ? Game 2
By SPORTSBETTING.com
Funny, while the news on the Western Conference finals off day should?ve centered around how the Denver Nuggets almost upset the Los Angeles Lakers in Game 1 (a 105-103 Nuggets loss in which Denver covered at +7), all everyone seemed to be talking about was the Game 4 scheduling conflict at the Pepsi Center between the WWE and the Nuggets? owner, Kroenke Sports.
As it turns out, the rasslers will head to the STAPLES Center in L.A., so take that Kroenke. Who double-books an arena anyways?
With the WWE-Nuggets battle settled, the focus can return to the battle between the Lakers and the Nuggets.
Before Game 4 can even take place, Games 2 and 3 must be played.
Game 2 takes place at the new site of Monday Night Raw, that would be the STAPLES Center. The line at SPORTSBETTING.com is the Lakers as 5.5-point favorites with the Total set at 211.
The Lakers are 9-4 straight up in the playoffs but haven?t been profitable for their backers, with only a 6-7 ATS mark.
Worth noting is that Lakers have posted five straight unders in their last five post-season starts.
The Denver Nuggets have been hot in their last 20 games going 15-5 SU and 15-4-1 ATS and have been, pardon the pun, gold in the 2009 playoffs going 10-0-1 ATS.
Facing the Lakers, Denver has struggled, Game 1 aside, as they are only 6-14 ATS the last 20 times they?ve played LA. Again, looking at the Under these two have stayed Under the number in nine of their last 11 meetings.
Although Denver was able to cover in its Game 1 road tilt against the Lakers, it failed to do so in the six road games previous against the purple and gold and in its last 20 games at the STAPLES Center is 5-15 ATS.
The battle between the Nuggets and the WWE is over, but the bigger battle goes tonight, as Denver tries to steal a road game from Kobe and crew.
Online sportsbook SPORTSBETTING.com is reporting 61% of the betting action coming in on the home side Lakers for Game 2.
It should be another great game. Good luck.
