The lowly Denver Nuggets seek their second straight home win tonight when they host the Seattle SuperSonics.
Denver are just 14-51 SU but are a more respectable 29-36 ATS. They are well-rested having not played since scoring a rare win Tuesday when they beat the visiting Raptors 95-87. They have been competitive at home recently as prior to their win over Toronto they had lost by 6 points to both Philadelphia and New Orleans...both of those teams are much better than tonight's opposition.
Seattle are 29-35 SU and 31-32-1 ATS overall. They were a definite play ON following the trade that brought them Ray Allen but have been in a funk recently....losing 4 of their last 5 SU and ATS. Last night they hosted the Warriors and the game was close until the final minute when Golden State pulled away for a 94-88 victory. This is the Sonics third game in four nights and will of course be played at altitude so fatigue may well be a factor late. They are just 1-7 SU recently on the road so to be laying four points tonight may prove difficult.
Denver have covered 7 of the last 9 in this series and we'll take the home Nuggets to keep it close enough to at least cover tonight.
Recommended Play: Denver Nuggets +4
