Beat-Down on the Hardwood
(NBA) Denver vs. Golden State,
Point Spread: -4.50 | -110.00 Golden State (Home)
Result: Loss
The Warriors opened the season looking like they are ready to make a run to repeat as Champs, They got it done on both ends of the court against the Lakers. Golden State held the Los Angeles Lakers to 109 points on 43.0% shooting overall and 25.0% shooting from three-point territory The Nuggets will be a different team in a month or so but at the moment they are not only trying to work Jamal Murray back into the mix but also Michael Porter. Against the Jazz, in a loss, Denver shot just 22% of their three-point attempts and will need a better shooting night against the Warriors. Golden State is 10-3 ATS in its last 13 games. In the last seven games against Denver, the Warriors are 5-2 SU and ATS. Until the Nuggets can get Murray and Porter fully back in the mix they will be an inconsistent team and against the Warriors inconsistent is one thing you don't want to be. I like the Warriors to open the season at 2-0.

Play on Golden State.
