5* MAX BET: MIKE'S NUGGETS/THUNDER NBA GAME OF THE MONTH
(NBA) Denver vs. Oklahoma City,
Point Spread: 3.50 | -113.00 Oklahoma City (Home)
Result: Loss
The Denver Nuggets have opened the season with wins over the Lakers and the Grizzlies. The Oklahoma City Thunder are also undefeated through road games at Chicago and Cleveland, and I think they'll keep rolling here in their home opener.

Denver has superior talent, but I think this early-season matchup means a lot more for the Thunder who will be looking to take down the defending NBA champions.

OKC has been shooting a red-hot 49.2% from behind the arc, and while not sustainable, for the moment I'd rather be on their side than bet against them.

5* PLAY ON OKLAHOMA CITY THUNDER.
