4* Nuggets/Rockets NBA No Doubt ATS Smash: Nuggets +2

I'm well aware that the Nuggets aren't a great road team, but they don't seem to have any problems playing up to their potential in Houston. Denver has won three straight on the road against the Rockets and four in a row overall in the series. Houston was able to snap their seven-game losing streak with a 100-94 victory over the Bobcats on Monday, but it's not like they dominated that game. Houston went into the 4th quarter trailing by 7-points to arguably the worst team in the league. The Rockets clearly aren't playing well right now and with the Nuggets playing on a solid two-days of rest, I look for Denver to get a win and cover. The Nuggets are 18-7 ATS over their last 25 road games against a team with a winning record in the second half of the season. BET THE NUGGETS!
