Denver Nuggets is really strong. I thought I am not going to win my bet @-14.5 because Nikola Jokic feels likes he doesn't have the energy to play. But somehow a lot of players stepped up their games. KCP was phenomenal and I think that is his season high 6/9 in three-point line, MPJ, Justin Holiday, Peyton Watson and Reggie Jackson. 23 out of 41 behind the arc and this is the Nuggets that I love to watch. The bench scoring and helping out on both ends of the floor, while Jokic just doing his natural game, then Jamal Murray's return probably had something to do with that energy going up.
Now, they are back at the top of the West after a tie with the Timberwolves.

The line was set up that high for a reason, seems like all the favorites have won and covered the spread. With the return of Murray, that's really something for the team as they are now ready for the playoffs and they could fully defend their title being the defending champion.

What I'm surprised actually is the game of the Lakers and Cavaliers, as it seemed like Mitchell is still not 100%, though he played a lot of minutes but finishing by only 10 points is just uncharacteristics of him.

Lakers continue to win games as they are really trying to secure the spot for the playoffs I think with the current roster and the chemistries that they are showing anybody is helping and they are not shy now to take the lift and not just to lean with how LeBron wants to play the game, D'Lo who played so well again leading the team with 28 points, while both LeBron and AD also got 20+ in this game, Cavs still in a good spot for the Playoff still on the 3rd spot though still too early and still plenty of games to play.

I don't care about the Cavaliers though as they'll make it to the playoffs regardless of what would be the outcome of their remaining games. It's the Lakers, I'm more interested on the development of the Lakers as they have been playing like they are on a mission, winning streak keeps their hopes not to be in the play-in tournament but to secure a playoff spot after the regular season will end.

It's good to see that D'Lo is at it again, he should gain that confidence as the Lakers need his 3 point shooting as they are so bad on that department last playoffs or WCF versus the Nuggets.
