00:03Oklahoma City here on the docket tonight, taking on the Denver Nuggets.

00:07This line, Dubzy, the look ahead, minus three and a half.

00:10The actual line now at the Fandle Sportsbook, minus seven for the road team, OKC, as they

00:16invade Denver tonight, a total, listen, at 222 and a half.

00:20And as we talked about it before, you look at OKC in the standings, a perfect 7-0 going

00:25up now against a team in the Denver Nuggets.

00:28Minus four and three, a monster spread.

00:32Can OKC live up to that tonight?

00:35I think they can, Donnie.

00:36Yeah, for the Denver Nuggets, maybe a little sluggish, missing yesterday's action.

00:41But the big news coming across there, Aaron Gordon, who's been fantastic, got that contract

00:45extension in the offseason, will not go forward here for the Denver Nuggets.

00:50So suddenly the big fella, he's going to have to be doing everything by himself.

00:54And we know how OKC play.

00:56They can score at a very high clip.

00:58The defense has looked even better here for a new year.

01:01So to try and cover that full touchdown, I absolutely think they can.

01:05I'd be looking towards their team total.

01:07This is a young team that's going to be primed up to play in ball arena.

01:10And for the Denver Nuggets, I just think they're missing a couple of weapons.

01:14If not, I mean, the minutes that we have to see from the big fella in Jokic in this first

01:19half, he is going to have to be out there doing everything in his power to keep him

01:23alive.

01:24But I just don't think he's got the weapons to go there with him.

01:26So OKC at seven points, I know it's a big margin to cover, but I think this is a nice

01:32spot for Wednesday evening.
