NBA Betting Trends Denver Nuggets at Philadelphia 76ers
After unmercifully running up the score on the young Seattle Supersonics in beating them 168-116 on Sunday, the inconsistent Denver Nuggets, (40-26 SU, 35-31 ATS, 38-28 O/U), were handed a taste of their own medicine in getting routed by the Detroit Pistons 136-120 last night.
Now the Nuggets will face the red-hot Philadelphia 76ers, (33-34 SU, 37-27-3 ATS, 31-25-1 O/U), who don’t figure on letting former star Allen Iverson and his teammates walk out of the Wachovia Center with an easy victory tonight.
The Nuggets, have won six of their last ten games but had their three-game winning streak snapped by the Pistons while Philadelphia has gone an impressive 8-2 in their last ten games and come in to tonight’s affair riding a three-game winning streak of their own, including a solid 103-96 win over the struggling San Antonio Spurs on Saturday.
The Sixers are also heating up the BetUS.com Sportsbook, covering the spread in eight of ten and three straight while the Nuggets have gone a respectable 6-4 against the spread over the same span.
