Denver at Phoenix

The Denver Nuggets are pretty certain to be heading to the playoffs, while the Phoenix Suns sit tied for the final spot with the Utah Jazz with just three games to play. Must win situations do two things. They put line value on the otherside and pressure on the team needing to win. That must win has been present for the Suns in each of their last six games, but they are just 3-3. The Nuggets used to be poor on the road, but have managed to play .500 basketball this year.  The road growth has them in an even bigger spot as they are now 27-9 ATS in their last 36 as a road dog. Phoenix has had its problems vs. Denver failing to cover in each of the last five meetings. Play on Denver.
