Las Vegas - You like line moves? Then week 3 is your JAM! Why? Mostly MASSIVE injuries to some REALLY key players. Also, the wise guys are throwing around money like Willy Wonka at the Chocolate Factory. Biggest mover on the NFL board was the Steelers, dropping from an open of -6 down to -4 against the Texans. And even seeing some 3.5s at the Mirage, Westgate and Golden Nugget out here in Vegas. Biggest mover on the college board was Cincinnati jumping from -11.5 to -14 over Army.

Checking in on game four of the Lakers/Nuggets series, with the Lake Show now in command at 2-0. But is this EXACTLY where Denver needs to be? Facing impossible odds as they did against the Jazz and Clippers? Lets discuss. Denver was glued to Los Angeles till the final seconds of game two. Then Anthony Davis threw in a three from downtown to win the game. They're calling it a 'Mamba Shot,' while wearing a 'Mamba Jersey.' You think the Nuggs have heard ENOUGH Mamba? Probably. Now they just need to find a third option that will provide some points to prop up Jamal Murray (25 points) and Nikola Jokic (30 points). It should be Gary Harris, who averaged 10.4 points per game during the regular season, and 8.3 so far in the playoffs. But Gary was just 1 of 6 in game two, with 3 lousy points. Maybe Jerami Grant who stuck 12 ppg on the board during the season. It ain't gonna be easy, but if Denver goes down 3-0, they might as well start polishing the golf clubs. Nuggets for the cover, just a tiny Leaning Tower of Pisa, and of course, if you can, buy the hook to +7.
