Understanding Public and Money
Think of 'Public' as the percentage of people betting on each side and 'Money' as how much money is being bet. When there's a big difference between the 'Public' and 'Money' data, it usually means that the more serious bettors (referred to as 'Sharp Money') are favoring a particular side.

Mike's Analysis:
The Clippers torched the Nuggets in Game 1 on their way to a 23-point win. They have now won each of their last three games against the Nuggets by at least 13 points. The Clippers are not missing any of their key rotation players while the Nuggets greatly miss the scoring prowess of Will Barton (knee). With Barton out, the Clippers can focus their defensive efforts on slowing down Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray. Despite this lofty line, I’ll take the Clippers to cover again.
