AAA's O/U WEST-COAST EXPRESS (+$11,976 Y-T-D NBA!)
(NBA) Golden State vs. Denver,
Total: 217.50 | -103.00 Under
Result: Loss
This is an 8* O/U WEST-COAST EXPRESS on the OVER between the Golden State Warriors and the Denver Nuggets.

For a number of different reasons I expect this total to eclipse the posted number as the game comes down the stretch. The Warriors have won five straight overall and two straight vs. the Nuggets and sit ten game in front of the Clippers for the Pacific Division lead. Keeping their eye on the big picture is of paramount importance according to head coach Steve Kerr: "We have 19 games left. We have a pretty good sized lead, so thats a big part of what we're trying to preach is being focused, and keeping our momentum going. It's easy to let down in the position that we're in, but we're trying to get ready for every game down the stretch. We have a standard that we're trying to meet every night. And if you meet that standard consistently during the regular season, you're more likely to meet it during the playoffs." Note that Golden State is averaging a league-high 109.6 points during its current win streak, most recently pulling away for a 105-98 victory over Detroit on Wednesday. Unless Denver pulls off a miracle, it's pretty safe to say that it will miss the Playoffs this year, but note that it's 4-2 since interim coach Melvin Hunt took control, most recently surprising Atlanta with a 115-102 victory on Wednesday. The home side also plays with revenge here after getting crushed 122-79 in Denver back on January 19th, it represented the Warriors most lopsided win of the year. Note that Golden State has seen the total go OVER the number in six of ten this year as a road favorite of 6.5 to 9 points, while Denver has seen it sail above the posted number in all three games it's played this season as a home dog in the 6.5 to 9 points range and in 21 of 38 in trying to revenge a loss vs. an opponent. In my opinion, the situation, the numbers and the trends do all indeed point to the OVER as the savvy move in this contest.
