(NBA) Denver vs. Minnesota,
Point Spread: 4.50 | -105.00 Denver (Away)
Result: Win
The Nuggets are coming into this game down 2-0 in the series and both of those losses came at home so this is now a must win game for them on the road. The Nuggets were a better home team this season, but they were still 24-17 on the road this year. They are going up against a Timberwolves team that has been dominant in the playoffs as they swept the Suns in the last round and now have a 2-0 lead on the Nuggets, winning 4 of their 6 games by 10+ points as well. The Timberwolves have now won 6 straight games in the playoffs without a loss and they have also covered the spread in all 6 games. This is a trend that is not going to continue for much longer as the Timberwolves are bound to lose a game sooner or later, and this is the spot to take the Nuggets in as no team in the NBA has ever come back from a 3-0 series deficit so this is a must win game for the Nuggets and they are going to bring everything they have for this game. The Nuggets have been awful in the first 2 games of this series at home but they are still the defending champions and they have the experience needed to fight through this kind of adversity. The Nuggets are going to get up for this game and they are coming to win it as their season might as well be over if they lose this game. The Nuggets will cover the spread in this game.
