5-5 last night
here's for starters... probably more later -------
:weed: :weed: :weed:
1) Sonics-Nuggets OVER 219 win
2) Nuggets -8 win
:weed: :weed: :weed:
The Sonics have the 2nd best offense on the road in the league, averaging 99.4 ppg. This is exactly the same number of points the Nuggets allow at home, as the 8th worst home defensive team. The Sonics are the worst defensive team on the road, allowing 108.3 ppg, and the Nugs are the 3rd best home offensive team, averaging 104.7 ppg.
In their last ten, the Nuggets have scored an average of 9.91 more ppg than what their opponents allow (at home or on the road) and the Sonics have scored an average of 11.04 more ppg than their opponents allow.
The Sonics cannot play defense - they are not only the worst team in the league on the road defensively, but they are also the worst in the league at fg% (allow 49.5% from the field), while the Nuggets are 4th best in the league at home in fg% (47.3%). The Nuggets are also 4th in the league in free throw attempts at home, so it is obvious that they like to drive the ball and pick up easy layups or fouls, and the Sonics cannot defend this type of play. The Nuggets are 3rd in the league in assists/game and have the 4th best assist/TO ratio. They are second in the league in steals and fifth in the league in blocked shots at home. Carmelo has been averaging 31.7 ppg in his last ten, including 32 against Bowen & the Spurs. If Bowen can?t guard him, who is going to guard him from the Sonics?
I am from Colorado, so I have been watching the Nuggets play all year long, and they are definitely at the peak of their game right now. I expect Carmelo to drop a cool 40 bomb on the Sonics :bigun:
final score prediction: 124-106 actual final 117-104
