Game Analysis

Ricky's 1 play on DEN.

Key Angle: It's important to remember that Ricky never makes a bet on any game based on just one angle. In order to make the grade, all his premium picks must meet several important criteria. He doesn't share all his secrets within his analysis, instead he chooses to reveal only the angle that he feels is the most significant. Here in this game the recent history of these two teams is particularly significant.

- Denver is 5-2 SU in its last 7 games against LA Clippers.

- LA Clippers is 2-6 ATS in its last 8 games played in May.

- Denver is 6-2 SU in its last 8 games.

Verdict: The value is on the Road Underdog.
