Good evening to all. At Denver's Pepsi Center Nuggets welcome them Kings, at 03:00 Monday morning.
The Nuggets are coming off a tie for another home win over the Grizzlies on Sunday morning, 119-110. 22-9 record of Mike Malone's team (14-4 inside) at No. 2 in the Western District, being in awesome form with 9 wins in the last 10. Jokic (18,1 / 10 / 6,9) has scored 11-of-12 double-double, while triple-double against Memphis.
On the Sacramento side now, defeat them Kings early morning against the Suns in a very marginal game that ended with 110-112. That was it 5 consecutive unsuccessful results for Luke Walton's team, with a 12-20 record in the Western District 11, 1,5 games behind the 8th Blazers.
The two teams have already faced each other twice this season with the wins being split and the scores remaining low.
In summary, given the first is that Nuggets inside are very powerful. Then tonight's game is special as both of them are back2backs, with fatigue playing its part, with the footnotes coming from a 'restless' dominance, and Kings from a match that was judged in the end. I think Denver will get the match, but I don't want to mess with such a high handicap (9,5). On the contrary, I prefer to go with the team over 106,5 points of the hosts since in the last 5 they exceeded in 4 of them 109, at the moment that the Kings accepted in 4 110+. Finally, I think that fatigue will affect the defensive focus of both and it is possible that some easy baskets will come towards the end of the match.
