Oklahoma City Thunder vs. Denver Nuggets Prediction
This bet has been the wagon of all wagons since I started betting. We are going back to it on a Saturday that everybody is distracted by football. Allow me to explain why we are attacking this one after a short break from it.
Denver is finally healthy and playing at full strength. They face an Oklahoma City team they have already dismantled this year, winning by 33 points in October. Denver of course won that race to 15 points with a score of 15-9. Jokic won the tip against Holmgren and we usually win these even with Jokic losing the tip.
Denver is at home where they are 10-1, I expect to come out hot and show Oklahoma City that they are the defending champs for a reason. I’m expecting a Jokic masterclass, and having Murray back will only help out cause. OG’s will rejoice at playing this and anyone new here should enjoy, this is the holiday gift of them all. Let's roll!
