Our Oklahoma City Thunder vs Denver Nuggets Prediction
This will be the third game between the Thunder and Nuggets. Each has one victory, which came on the other team’s home court. Oklahoma City has been one of the toughest teams in the league at home this season (27-4). However, one of those losses was to Denver. Both teams are playing well right now. However, the Thunder are coming off a game where they rested several guys and still dominated. But Denver is no joke. However, their last time out was an incredible overtime win over Phoenix. They could be a little tired, while the Thunder is well-rested.
I’ve got to roll with the Thunder to win, but I think the Nuggets will put up enough of a fight to keep it close.
Our Denver vs. Oklahoma City Pick: Denver +7.5
