Regular Season Game 24
Wizards (12-11) vs. Nuggets (13-9)
Pepsi Center
9 PM
CSN
Previous Results: Wizards 120, Nuggets 91.
I don't have much time here, but in case you haven't heard, the Nuggets are going to be very shorthanded tonight. Carmelo Anthony got a 15 game suspension and J.R. Smith is out for 10 games. In addition, Nene is out for tonight's game, leaving Denver incredibly short-handed.
The Wizards should have no trouble winning this one, but it'll be interesting to see what lineups they play. They played the small lineup when the Lakers came back, and then played Calvin Booth after Brendan Haywood fouled out in overtime. One was successful, one wasn't. You tell me which.
Anyway, here are your projected starters.
Wizards
PG: Gilbert Arenas
SG: DeShawn Stevenson
SF: Caron Butler
PF: Antawn Jamison
C: Brendan Haywood
Denver
PG: Andre Miller
SG: Yakhouba Diawara
SF: DerMarr Johnson
PF: Eduardo Najera
C: Marcus Camby
Nuggets blogs: Nugg Doctor, Solid Gold.
Here are your lines:
Wizards at Nuggets: Wizards by 4
Over/Under on Big 3: 67.1 points.
