Denver Nuggets vs. Toronto Raptors (NBA) - Mar 23, 2008 3:35 PM EDT
Play: Point Spread: -3/-107 Toronto Raptors
Pick Title: Free Pick
FREE PLAY ON TORONTO. Denver is in a tough position here. This game will be their fourth on an east coast road trip. It is also their fourth game in six days. I expect them to be very sluggish throughout. This game will be the third back for Chris Bosh, so he should be playing at almost full strength. Toronto was playing awful recently without Bosh, but they have seemed to turn things around since his return. His absence came during a tough west coast road trip. However, the Raptors are a good home team with a 20-13 record. Denver is a bad road team with a 13-21 straight up record. The main reason for Denver’s poor road record is their defense, as they give up an average of 110 points as the visitor. I expect their defense to be non-existent because they are in the middle of a six game road trip. Toronto can really light the scoreboard up at home, which is bad news for the Nuggets.
Take the Raptors to win in a rout.
