In the game before last night, the Nuggets took a 10-point lead in the first quarter and essentially maintained that advantage until the end - 125:113. Denver's top scorer was Michael Porter, who scored 36 points. Nikola Jokic had a triple-double with 27 points, 14 rebounds and 10 assists. Jamal Murray added 20 points for his team.
This win was the third straight for Denver. Before that, the Nuggets beat Philadelphia (137:134) and Charlotte (107:104) on the road. In general, the team now does not have the same margin of safety as in the last couple of seasons, but the Nuggets are not experiencing tournament problems either. The team from Colorado is in fourth place in the Western Conference with a 31-19 record and, for example, is only 3.0 wins behind second-place Memphis.
New Orleans
The Pelicans have finally fallen off the play-in race. After losing to Denver the day before yesterday, Willie Green's team suffered its sixth straight loss. Earlier, New Orleans lost to Memphis (126:139), Toronto (104:113) and Charlotte (92:123) on the road, and then failed at home to Dallas (136:137) and Boston (116:118).
In the Western Conference standings, New Orleans fell to the penultimate line. The balance of wins is 12-38. Utah, which is at the bottom of the table, has just one less win, so the Pelicans will probably still fight for the best chance at the first pick of the draft.

Expert Betting Tips
The Pelicans have finally given up on tournament contention and have lost six straight games. It's unclear why New Orleans can stop Denver in the upcoming game, so we're betting on another Nuggets victory over the team from Louisiana. Also, we expect high efficiency - Denver has a quality offense this season, but their defense is not always reliable.
