Denver had lost three in a row before beating Brooklyn, which has lost eight straight, so that wasn't a huge win. New York still is recovering from blowing a 21-point lead against the Lakers and losing in overtime on Saturday. It affected the Knicks last night as Utah twice rallied from 12-point deficits and beat the Knicks 113-104 with Julius Randle pouring in 30 points for New York. They'll rely on Randle again to keep this one close, and the Nuggets are only 14-10 straight up and 10-14 ATS at home this season. More importantly, the Knicks are 12-3 ATS playing on no rest, and Denver is 3-7-1 ATS following a win. Also, the Nuggets have covered just one of their last six home games overall (1-4 ATS as home favorites). Play the Knicks.
