This is a 10* play on DENVER.

Denver is coming off a humiliating loss Tuesday night to Golden State. They were beaten, at home, by a score of 142-111. Most notably they gave up a 51-point 1st quarter, which was a NBA record. Tonight they have an opportunity to take their frustration out on a lesser opponent. Let us not forget the kind of season the Nuggets are having. What happened Tuesday was just one game. This team is still 18-4 at home. They are still second in the Western Conference (and could even be tied for 1st depending what happens Wednesday night with Golden State vs. New Orleans). Bottom line is they are one of the best teams in the league. Tonight's opponent is one of the very worst in the league. Chicago has lost eight straight games. Four of the eight losses have been by 12 points or more. Even though they played the Nuggets tough very early in the year, the Bulls are just 2-7 ATS the last nine meetings. I expect the Nuggets to come out HIGHLY motivated in this one. Play on DENVER
