Seattle - Denver
The mission continue for Allen Iverson and his new team . After his first victory with the Nuggets , 116-105 against Boston , 2 days ago ,when he scored 28 points and added 13 assists , Iverson Looks very confident at tonight s game . Tonight , again they ll be without C. Anthony ,M. Camby ,K. Martin ,J. Smith .
The most important thing about tonight s game for the visitors is the fact that they re missing their liders. The Sonics will be without leading scorer Ray Allen, who left the team to attend the birth of his and his fiancee’s second child. The six time All Star has averaged 25.2 points in 20 games, and he scored 21 points in Seattle’s 102-94 win over the New Orleans Hornets on tuesday .eattle - which was 3-6 without Allen - has the additional pressure of trying to replace forward Rashard Lewis, who will miss the next six to eight weeks following surgery to repair tendons in his right hand. The team’s second-leading scorer is averaging 21.9 points and wants to remain in Seattle despite being eligible for free agency at season’s end.
So , we have two incomplete teams , with their best players missing , but with a big advantage and motivation for the hosts. Probably AI , will take care of the show as usual and will see a big performance from him .
Today s pick will be on the hosts to cover the spread :
