I actually think they won’t just cover, I see them winning this outright.
That said, My pick is Magic +2.5.
Loss this one, 52-49 = 51.48% the new record.
Let’s move forward.
(DENVER +8)Tomorrow I’m looking at the Nuggets vs OKC game, and +8 feels a bit too high for Denver. Being that heavy of an underdog seems like an overreaction. OKC is strong at home, no question, but Denver isn’t some average team you can just dismiss.
I’m leaning toward taking the Nuggets to cover the spread, even if they end up losing. Eight points is a lot, especially for a team with playoff experience.
