10* NBA Playoffs Game of the Week
(NBA) Phoenix vs. Denver,
Point Spread: -3.00 | -115.00 Denver (Home)
Result: Win
The Suns have virtually been playing their starters the entire game. Booker and Durant lead the league in playoff minutes and now play on the road in high altitude versus and against a deep and physical opponent. The Nuggets also have playoff revenge from last years playoffs. Denver has the deeper roster and has plenty of defenders with size to throw at Durant and Booker. More importantly, the home and away records of these teams cannot be ignored. Denver was excellent at home going 34-7 on their home floor. Phoenix struggled on the road, only going 17-24 as the away team. I expect the Nuggets Jokic and Murray to have big games and step up big in Game 1 for the win and cover.
