Have to say that I don't really understand what the Nuggets are doing today in San Antonio. If they win, they are guaranteed the third seed but almost surely will drop to four with a loss -- and that means Oklahoma City in Round 2 (presuming chalk holds). Yet they are sitting pretty much everyone. So I'm not going to try a long-shot ML play but will take the points because the Spurs are locked into the West's No. 2 so their starters won't be playing much if at all, either.
