Free pick<\/a> for Saturday comes from OffshoreInsiders.com Senior Sports Handicapper<\/a> Matt Rivers. It is on the Denver Nuggets (-9) to Detroit.<\/p>\n

Is this post Carmelo Anthony Denver team really almost double digits better talent-wise than Detroit? No they\u2019re not but we have seen it over and over and over again where a team is on a back-to-back and on that second night has to go into the rarified air of the Pepsi Center and things just unravel. It was this exact spot a few weeks back with the Hawks and I will give Atlanta credit as they competed for the first three quarters of the game but then the legs became extremely heavy and in the end it turned out to be an easy Nuggets cover.<\/p>\n

The Pistons are a team that I don\u2019t mind backing when getting a lot of points because they do have some experienced players\u00a0with an upside\u00a0in Stuckey, Villaneuva, Gordon, Hamilton and Prince. There are certain situations where they are a far better team than the poor 23-43\u00a0record would indicate. But this is most definitely not one of those spots.<\/p>\n

The Pistons just fell in Oklahoma City last night and will come limping into the Mile High City. Carmelo may be gone but amazingly George Karl has not only kept the ship afloat but once can even make a case that\u00a0the team has overall been better without the newest Knickerbocker. Denver has won four of their last five games and seven of nine. They have played literally one game in the past week and that was on Wednesday night when they smacked around the surging Suns on the road in Phoenix.<\/p>\n

I expect Denver to be the far fresher team on the floor and in the end they will take care of business once again.<\/p>\n

Top expert pick<\/a> on this game: Denver Nuggets from Matt Rivers.<\/p>\n
