*3 Star TGIF NBA Total Domination* At the beginning of the NBA season, the first thing I like to do is check out teams where we will see pace changes. With Stan Van Gundy out and Dwight Howard gone, first year coach Jacques Vaughn will turn the Orlando Magic into an uptempo team. Now, Orlando doesn't have prolific scorers, so I won't always be looking at an 'over' with them. In this case, I love the matchup. Denver was the fastest paced team in the NBA team last year, and they aren't about to try to slow the pace down. The Nuggets should be able to score at will against this Orlando team. The quick pace should be plenty to put this one over the total. Take the over.
