Online Sportsbook Betting Picks – Melo Still In Nuggets Uniform Against Bucks

February 17, 2011

The Denver Nuggets and their online sportsbook betting faithful still have Carmelo Anthony on their team for now, but that hasn’t made things much better overall.

Early on in the trade rumors, we thought the Nuggets would implode.

Initially they didn’t.

Now that process is all but realized.

The Nuggets have fallen to just 3-7 SU and ATS despite Carmelo’s best efforts. Maybe the team has given up hope. Maybe the players know he’s leaving. What’s the point in trying when they know that they won’t get significant talent in return for Melo?

Whatever is ailing the Nuggets, they have to find a mental trigger to get over it. This team is still extremely talented outside of Melo and that’s a big reason why they generated so much online sportsbook betting action in the NBA to begin with. The Melo Drama isn’t killing this team’s value. A lack of discipline is.

Denver Nuggets (31-25) vs. Milwaukee Bucks (21-33)

Wednesday, February 16th — Bradley Center — 9:00pm EST

Online Sportsbook Betting Line: Milwaukee -1.5 (201.5)

The Bucks aren’t really in the market for a big trade. They just want to get their team fully healthy for once. On the outside of the Eastern Conference playoff bubble, the Bucks have fallen to just 2-7 SU in their last 9 games and the only real rumor they have had to deal with is the one revolving around Michael Redd’s hopeful return.

Still there is some hope here. The Nuggets seem generally lost. If they were playing at full force, they’d be facing a bigger line against a Milwaukee team that’s alternated spread victories over their last eight games with an even keel 4-4 ATS record. Don’t sleep on Milwaukee in this game. They can sense panic in Denver and they’ll strike on a tight online sportsbook betting line.

BONUS PICKS!

L.A. Clippers -1.0 over MINNESOTA TIMBERWOLVES

The Wolves simply can’t beat teams with good athletes, and they don’t come much more ferocious than Blake Griffin. The truth, however, is that The Clippers still have quite a bit of explosiveness and shooting touch on the outside with Baron Davis and Eric Bledsoe. Start your online sportsbook betting picks with the inside and outside matchups first, and in this one the Timberwolves can’t hang. The Clippers end a three-game losing skid in online sportsbook NBA betting tonight against Minnesota.

DALLAS MAVERICKS -11.0 over Sacramento Kings

The Kings are about to get a lesson in team chemistry. Dallas is riding a hot streak right now at 11-1 SU in their last 12 games and with a 13-4-1 ATS track record when hosting the Kings, it’s hard to not find value in the online sportsbook betting line here. Sacramento has the potential to be great – more so than a lot of other teams in the gutter – but until they literally stop punching each other in the face, you can steer clear of them.
