NBA Picks 5/6

1-1 yesterday taking tough no cover by the Clippers who won but did not hit their free throws costing the cover. Meanwhile, Oklahoma City looked like a championship contender taking care of business on the road.

One play for tonight-

Top  Pick
Lakers/Nuggets over 201- generally I am not a big proponent of taking the over too often in playoff games as both teams usually feel the pressure of the game and either slow things down or hit a scoring drought when things go badly.

However, the Laker's played pretty awful in game three and the Nuggets took full advantage. The Nuggets will look to push the tempo again and the Lakers who would like to slow it down but will need to play at a faster pace on the road. I don't think the Lakers will be a fast break machine but they will try to score early in the possession before the Nuggets can put the double teams in place like they did in game 3.

I am leaning towards the Nuggets to win but definitely like the over.
