Phoenix Suns vs Denver Nuggets. The NHL Pick for this contest is the Denver Nuggets. Denver will win at home on Tuesday in Game 5 and take a 3-2 series lead, but the better bet is OVER.

 

The OVER has hit in 19 of Phoenix’s last 28 games, in six of Denver’s last eight games and in four of the last five games between Phoenix and Denver.

 

The OVER has also hit in the last two games of this series. Phoenix is shooting 49.8% in the playoffs, while Denver is shooting 47.4%. My prediction: Denver Nuggets win but go with the OVER 121-112.
