NBA Saturday

[griswold]

Playoffs 1-1 +0.9 units

2* 1-0 +2.0 units
1* 0-1 -1.1 units

I'm 1-1 so far in the playoffs (plus a push) winning my top play on Denver in game one of its series and losing on the Heat in game 2 of that series.

I'm posting this Saturday game now because I fear the line will move against me (it might go the other way but I doubt it).

2* Nuggets +2
I'm firing back on the Nuggets who dominated San Antonio in game one and played decently in game two when the Spurs backs were against the wall. I consider Denver to be equal to San Antonio. The Nuggets core lineup, finally healthy, of Anthony, Iverson and Camby, is as strong as any threesome in the league. Duncan is no longer dominant and the Nuggets have a real chance of winning this series. This is their "must" game---as important to them as Thursday's was to San Antonio. I look for a straight-up win so the two points are a bonus.

Opinion only:
Friday
Warriors (might be upgraded)

Pending:
1* Nuggets to win series +650

Adding

I obviously wish I had upgraded the Warriors to a full play as Nelson is making Avery Johnson's head spin and Dirk is doing another post-season disappearing act.

In addition to today's big play on Denver, I have:

1* Magic +5
It's always tough to knock out a team on its home court in its first game facing elimination. Detroit knows it has the series won and doesn't need this game. The Magic lost to Detroit by only eight the first two in Detroit and should keep this one close at home and might even win.

Opinion only:
Wizards (like the points in a tossup)
