Analysis
My selection is on Los Angeles plus the points over Denver at 10 pm et on Thursday. Most have already advanced the Nuggets past the Lakers as they head to Los Angeles with a commanding 2-0 series lead. In fact, we're already hearing talk of Denver's impending championship repeat. Usually when that starts happening, the team runs into some trouble and I expect that to be the case with the Nuggets on Thursday. Note that Denver is just 19-23 ATS in its last 42 road games with the line set between +3 and -3 including a 5-8 ATS mark this season. The Nuggets are also 24-42 ATS in their last 66 contests following three straight wins, going 7-15 ATS in that situation this season. The Lakers are 12-10 ATS in their last 22 games following consecutive road losses including a 3-2 ATS mark in that spot this season. They're also 31-20 ATS in their last 51 contests after scoring 105 points or less in their previous game, as is the case here, including an 8-2 ATS record in that situation this season. Take Los Angeles (8*).
