I really like the Nuggets tomorrow. While I think the Lakers ultimately win the series, I think tomorrow is a good spot for Denver. Denver was firing on all cylinders as the season came to an end as they still had situations worth playing for. On the other hand, the Lakers have gone limping into the postseason. I know Kobe returns tomorrow, but I just think the groove that Denver is in as a team unit will overcome Kobe's return as they make take a game or so to gel as a unit on the floor again.
I really like Denver + the points, and I am leaning going heavy on them ML.
Whats everyone think?

I like it too. plus the under. Denver held kobe to 17 and 20 pts in two of the games this season. If they can limit Bynums touches this is a good spot for both these plays. They also have the talent to do it. The total is set at 201.5. They hit the 200 mark once without kobe. Artests aggressive d creates turnovers for pts and with him out the Lakers will have to make adjustments on both sides of the ball. Bynum won't be pushing around koufos and mosgov like most other centers. He definitely has a slight edge but this is the playoffs. Its going to be fun to watch. Good luck whichever way u go and follow your instincts.

Denver matches up well with World Peace out. Lakers will cover a game or two on the road and the line will be much better. I'd take LA on the road. But it's always best to watch the first one.

I like the Nuggets today too. Line moving from -5.5 to -4.5, meaning the Lakers barely get more than the home court advantage in that line given their home record. IMO LAL has 2.5 to 3 points as a HCA. Metta WP, altough being considered as a worthless players, he had the lowest negative production on the Lakers' roster, with -1.9 (Kobe, Gasol, Bynum, Sessions and Barnes are above him). He is a very scrappy player, and he will be missed. Denver has a lot of big bodies to throw out there, and things won't be easy for Bynum and Gasol. Afflalo is one of the best defenders in the game at his position and he will give Kobe a hard time + he is a threat from downtown. Lawson would've ran in circles around Fisher, but Sessions is an upgrade at the point for the Lakers and that advantage for Denver isn't that big now, but it's still an advantage. Plus, this season Kobe didn't had his best performances against Denver, averaging just 17 points against them in 3 games.
