In what could end up being a 2nd round match-up in this year's playoffs, the Denver Nuggets host the LA Clippers this Sunday at Ball Arena. Tip-off is at 10 pm ET on ESPN, I've come up with a Same Game Parlay to make things a bit more interesting here.

Let's dive into my SGP bet now!
Denver Nuggets -4.5 Point Spread (-110)
Denver just got beat badly by the Memphis Grizzlies 112-94 a couple of days ago, it was a contrasting performance compared to their previous game which was a 6-point win at Cleveland. They've faired well against tonight's opponent the Clippers winning 8 of the last 10 meetings, so it's a solid opportunity to turn things around and get back to winning ways. Denver has the best home record in the league at 27-4 SU, they are also on a 11-3 SU run over their last 14 games vs Western Conference opponents. LA is coming off a double OT home loss to Sacramento in what was the 2nd highest scoring NBA game of all-time. That will almost certainly leave a mark on the team as both George and Leonard logged over 40 minutes, I wouldn't be surprised if they decide to skip tonight's game. Denver has won all 3 meetings fairly convincingly this season by 10, 31 and 12 points, so I have no reason to doubt they'll do so once again here. Back the Nuggets to dominate.
