Denver Nuggets at Indiana Pacers NBA Picks

    NBA Betting - Denver Nuggets

    The Indiana Pacers are favored at home on Saturday night as they host the Denver Nuggets but it is a tough spot for Indiana as they had to play Friday night in Memphis while Denver was off. Let’s take a look at this matchup and make our NBA picks.

    Nuggets 9-4 ATS on the Road

    Denver has struggled of late but most of their losses came at home. Denver is still a very profitable 9-4 against the spread on the road. The Nuggets have really been hit but injuries but the team is not using that as an excuse for their poor play of late. “I don't think we're playing bad basketball, I just don't think we're playing winning basketball," said Nuggets coach George Karl, “I think right now we're doing the [right] things probably 30-35 minutes a game." The loss of leading scorer Danilo Gallinari is really hurting and Gallinari is out for about a month. The Nuggets did get Aaron Affalo and Nene back on Wednesday but it didn’t matter as Denver lost to Dallas.

    Pacers 4-5 ATS at Home

    Indiana has a very good straight up record this season but they have not been that good against the spread. The Pacers are a good defensive team but they rarely blow teams out which means they don’t always cover the NBA point spread.
