Command Analysis
Denver Nuggets
USACurrent form
The Nuggets played five games during the preseason. Michael Malone team made a lot of mistakes, which is why they lost to Boston twice, were unable to break the Phoenix defense (114:118) and were routed by Oklahoma (94:124).
In the last meeting, Denver pulled themselves together and dealt with Minnesota (132:126). Julian Stroeter was one of the best on the court, as he ended up scoring 33 points. Of course, it’s too early to draw conclusions, but this season the Nuggets really have a stellar roster.
Disqualifications and injuries
Deron Holmes won't be able to help his team.
Interesting facts for betting
Denver has scored more than 114 points in just one of its five preseason games.
Probable lineup : Murray - Brown, Jokic - Porter, Gordon.
Oklahoma City Thunder
USACurrent form
The Thunder have picked up some good momentum, considering their recent games. They have won four of their last five games, with the games against Denver (124:94) and Atlanta (104:99) being particularly memorable.
Isaiah Joe has been on everyone radar and has put up some solid numbers. Oklahoma City will be playing their first game of the season on the road and with some personnel issues, but Marco Daignault has some nice replacements lined up.

1.78Tip and bets
Oklahoma managed to find its game, if you look at the latest results. On the other hand, it is unlikely that each of the opponents gave their best during the preseason, so the visitors need to approach the confrontation as seriously as possible, while not forgetting about personnel losses.
Denver showed the worst result, but the roster is filled with stars who are expected to win. We assume that the Nuggets will not let down their fans at home and will win.
Our forecast is Denver victory in 1.73
Bet on total
The last personal meetings were far from resembling an open game. It is unlikely that anything will change at the start of the regular championship, especially when the teams need to find their rhythm, so we suggest paying attention to the total under.
Forecast - total under 227 points for 1.82
Bet on statistics
We expect Denver to dominate the court, but their opponent defense will not allow them to fully accelerate in attack.
Prediction - Denver individual total under 115 points for 1.79
