Knicks at Nuggets and predictions

Prediction

Knicks 106, Nuggets 104

Moneyline

The last time the Knicks were in town, they won 106-103 Nov. 16, 2022. I love what Brunson is doing right now, and I really hope he gets the rightful MVP votes.

The Nuggets are 27-6 at home, and they’re healthy. But I absolutely love the value the Knicks are getting here. Let’s take a chance that Brunson can lug the team on his back and keep the perfect road trip going.

LEAN KNICKS +340.

Against the spread

While I love the value the Knicks got on the ML, I’m infatuated with them catching 9.5 points here. They’re 2-0-1 ATS on their road trip and have either covered or pushed on the road during their last 10 overall.

Take the KNICKS +9.5 (-110).

Over/Under

These teams are 2 of the biggest snails in the league in terms of pace. The Nuggets have hit 100+ in their last 10, and the Knicks are at 98+ in 8 of 10. We’ll need more than that from the Knicks, but Brunson is here to make a statement in the MVP picture.

Take the OVER 207.5 (-110).

Knicks at Nuggets picks and predictions

Prediction

Knicks 115, Nuggets 109

Moneyline

The KNICKS (+360) are worth playing as heavy underdogs, even though they’re playing on the 2nd end of a back-to-back set.

The reasoning for taking the heavy ‘dogs is due to the health situation of the Nuggets (-500). Two-time MVP Nikola Jokic entered the NBA’s health and safety protocols, and he has officially been ruled out for Wednesday. Bones Hyland is expected to miss a 3rd straight game for the same reason, while F Aaron Gordon is questionable due to a non-COVID illness. That’s a lot of offense (and defense) missing, and Denver’s cohesiveness will be off.

Against the spread

KNICKS +9.5 (-120) is a solid option catching nearly double digits. New York cooled off Utah Tuesday night as 4.5-point underdogs, and it’s a tough turnaround heading for the Mile High City the very next night. However, the Knicks are worth playing even if the line were to go down by 2 buckets.

Over/Under

UNDER 233.5 (-115) is a strong play here, again, due to the absences on the Denver end. Who is going to score for the Nuggets with Jokic, and potentially Gordon, sidelined? Jokic is averaging 20.8 PPG, 9.5 RPG and 8.9 APG through 13 games, so that’s a huge absence. That’s what is mainly driving the Under train here.

The Knicks have lost the first two games of their road trip and are coming off a 113-104 loss to the Utah Jazz Monday. They have lost three games in a row overall and have only two wins in their last 11 contests. New York is in 12th place in the Eastern Conference.

The Nuggets snapped a three-game losing skid with a 124-104 home win over the Brooklyn Nets Sunday. They had won five games in a row prior to the three-game slide, so they have won six of their last nine games overall. Denver is in sixth place in the Western Conference.

Knicks at Nuggets odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

Nuggets 110, Knicks 106

Money line

The Knicks are 11-15 on the road this season and have dropped five straight, and eight of nine, away from MSG. They are 3-4 this season with no rest.

The Nuggets are 14-10 at home and 12-7 against the Eastern Conference. They beat the Knicks 113-99 on the road Dec. 4.

I don’t like the Knicks in this spot and the -340 line on Denver makes for a  PASS on the money line as you would have to wager more than three times your potential return. Look to the spread at the total for better bets.

Against the spread

The Knicks are 5-2 ATS this season when they play on the second night of a back-to-back and are 6-4 ATS on the road against teams above .500. New York is 4-6 ATS in its last 10 games but has failed to cover the spread in five of its last six outings.

The Nuggets are 7-7 ATS at home against teams below .500. Denver has covered the spread in four of its last six games but those are only four it has covered in its last 10 outings.

Take the KNICKS +7.5 (-112).

Over/Under

The Knicks have only had two games hit the Over in the seven games they’ve played on no rest. They have one of the slowest paces in the league and are 27th in the league in scoring with 104.4 points per game.

The Nuggets are averaging 112 points in their last four contests.

The Over hit in their first meeting as the teams put up 212 points against a 209.5 total.

Take UNDER 218.5 (-110).

New York Knicks at Denver Nuggets odds, picks and prediction

Previewing Wednesday’s New York Knicks at Denver Nuggets NBA odds and lines, with basketball picks, tips and predictions.

The New York Knicks (37-28) travel to the Mile High City for their third game of a six-game Western Conference road swing. They’ll play the Denver Nuggets (43-22) at Ball Arena with a 9 p.m. ET tip-off. Below, we analyze the Knicks-Nuggets odds and lines, with NBA picks and predictions.

New York won 12 of its last 13 games and covered the spread in 15 of the past 16 with the latest being a 118-104 whooping of the Memphis Grizzlies Monday.

Their recent surge has the Knicks as the 4-seed in the Eastern Conference and 3 games ahead of the seventh-place Boston Celtics (seeds 7-10 participate in the postseason play-in tournament).

Denver was upset 93-89 as a 4-point road favorite by a Los Angeles Lakers team missing SF LeBron James Monday. Prior to the loss, the Nuggets won five straight and nine of 10.

The Nuggets steamrolled the Knicks 114-89 in their first meeting of the season Jan. 10. Really, no one from New York showed up aside from All-Star PF Julius Randle who put up 29 points on 11-for-16 shooting with 10 rebounds and 5 assists.

Knicks at Nuggets: Odds, lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Knicks 110, Nuggets 103

Money line (ML)

Slight “LEAN” to the KNICKS (+145) for a tiny wager if at all because I “like” New York plus the points and the Knicks are the only team hotter than the Nuggets at the moment.

When these teams played earlier this season the Knicks didn’t have PG Derrick Rose on the roster and the Nuggets were fully loaded.

Since then, Denver lost Murray for the season and enter this meeting without three more contributors in the backcourt.

Against the spread (ATS)

Definitely bet KNICKS 4 (-110) heavier than or instead of New York’s money line because the Knicks have been a covering machine over the last few weeks and Denver has been winning but not covering.

The Nuggets covered just three times in their last nine games despite winning seven of those outright.

Also, this is a matchup where Denver’s fourth-slowest pace hurts because a slowed-down tempo would allow New York’s fourth-rated defense to set up and make life difficult for a Nuggets offense that doesn’t have any ballhandlers to create looks for teammates.

Over/Under (O/U)

“LEAN” to the UNDER 215.5 (-105) for one-third of a unit because both teams play at a snail’s pace and my read is New York’s defense will have a better showing than in the last Knicks-Nuggets game since Denver has some injury concerns.
