NBA | (531) Denver Nuggets at (532) Golden State Warriors | 10:10pm EDT - Oct 23/2025 |
The PLAY: Total Under 233.5 (-115)
This is a FREE PLAY on the UNDER between the Denver Nuggets and the Golden State Warriors.
The Warriors survived opening night on the road against the Lakers, holding on for the 119-109 victory, and the total sneaking OVER the number of 226.5. I was unfortunately on the UNDER in that one.
Now the over/under line here at home against the Nuggets is quite a bit higher, and in my opinion, a bit TOO high. I think there are enough situational factors that would point to this game being much more defensive than what the oddsmakers are trying to lead us to believe.
As I stated in yesterday's analysis, the Warriors, led by Draymond Green and now Al Horford on the defensive end, finished in the top 10 in most defensive statistics. They held the Lakers to 109 points, and I think they can hold the Nuggets to a similar total.
The Lakers were missing LeBron James, which is obviously huge, but Jimmy Butler would go on to score 31 points, followed by Steph Curry with 23 and Buddy Hield and Jonathan Kuminga with 17 apiece. Green finished with eight points, seven boards, and 9 assists.
The Nuggets come to town with a new coach and a renewed sense of hope that they'll be able to return to the elite in the West after taking a step back last season. The Nuggets still made the playoffs last year, and they gave Oklahoma City a hell of a battle as well. There are a bunch of new faces in Denver this year. Michael Porter Jr. is gone, but the Nuggets welcome Cam Johnson, Jonas Valanciunas, Tim Hardaway Jr., and Bruce Brown to this year's line-up.
Last year, the Nuggets went 2-1 in this series. They still have likely the best player on the planet in Nikola Jokic, and with the offense being run through the big Serbian primarily on Opening night, I'm expecting a more methodical pace out of the visitors than what this O/U line would suggest.
All things considered, I think this line is indeed a bit TOO high.
Consider the UNDER.
Good luck, NP

NBA | (517) New Orleans Pelicans at (518) Memphis Grizzlies | 8:10pm EDT - Oct 22/2025 |
The PLAY: Memphis Grizzlies -4.5 (-110)
This is a FREE PLAY on the Memphis Grizzlies.
While I think the Pelicans will be improved over last year's disaster, I still think they're overmatched here on Opening Night, especially with their big man sidelined with injury.
New Orleans was 0-2 SU and 2-0 ATS in the preseason. It lost 130-128 at home to Houston, before a 132-125 loss at Orlando.
Memphis went 1-4 SU/ATS in the preseason, winning their final game at Miami by a score of 141-125 as a 3.5-point dog.
Last year, the Grizzlies were eighth in the regular season and played in the play-in tournament and then lost in the first round to the Thunder.
As Ja Morant goes, so go the Grizzlies. It's clearly crucial that Morant stays focused this year for Memphis to return to prominence. He's also been super-prone to injury.
The biggest change from last year was the departure of Desmond Bane, while adding Kentavious Caldwell-Hope.
New Orleans took a major step back last year and closed out the regular season by losing six straight.
The Pelicans had to deal with injuries to key players throughout the year, and they ended up finishing just 21-61.
The big change this year for New Orleans is that CJ McCollum has moved on, and they brought in Saddiq Bey and Jordan Poole.
New Orleans big man Kevin Looney is out for this game, and when Williamson is off the floor, it's hard to see the thing Pelicans matching up well with the rest of the Grizzlies.
It's a chance for redemption for Morant, and this is a very favorable matchup here on Opening Night.
The Pelicans' style of play suits the Grizzlies, and it's hard to see New Orleans doing much on the defensive end on the road tonight, either.
Lay the points, the play is on MEMPHIS.
Good luck, NP
