Ricky's 1* play on DEN.

Key Angle: It's important to remember that Ricky never makes a bet on any game based on just one angle. In order to make the grade, all his premium picks must meet several important criteria. He doesn't share all his secrets within his analysis, instead he chooses to reveal only the angle that he feels is the most significant. Here in this game the recent history of these two teams is particularly significant.

- Denver is 8-0 in its last 8 games.

- Portland is 2-4 ATS in its last 6 games against Denver.

- Denver is 5-0 in its last 5 games at home.

Verdict: The value is on the Home favorite.

FRANK’S CUTTING ROOM FLOOR FOR MONDAY, 4/6:

My “Cutting Room Floor” plays are the situations I considered the closest to being worthy of investment but did not make the “final cut” for my official plays today for subscribers. The last play I cut for Saturday is with the Denver Nuggets minus the points versus the Portland Trail Blazers. Denver (50-28) has won eight games in a row after their 136-134 upset victory in overtime at home against San Antonio as a 1.5-point underdog on Saturday. The Nuggets have covered the point spread in 7 of their last 11 home games after a win by six points or less. They have also covered the point spread in 7 of their last 10 home games when laying 3.5 to 9.5 points. Portland (40-38) has won five of their last six games after their 118-106 win at home against New Orleans as a 6.5-point favorite last Thursday. The Trail Blazers have failed to cover the point spread in 5 of their last 8 games on the road when playing for the second time in the previous five days. This is their sixth game in the last two weeks — and they have failed to cover the point spread in 12 of their last 1gameses when playing for no more than the sixth time in the last 14 days. Take Denver minus the points. Best of luck — Frank.

Game Analysis

National Championship Monday and Rob has a BIG 50% OFF Special on his TOP Play backed with a Perfect Finals Championship. Our NBA Game of the Year $$ easily on Sunday with the Clippers. Tonight we have a big Total. In MLB we have an Early Power system play that is 18-0 since 2004

The NHL Comp play is on San Jose. The Sharks are in a nice 6-0 system that plays on game 70 or later home favorites of 140 or more that are off a home favored loss and have road loss revenge and are taking on a team like Chicago that comes in of a road dog win scoring 4 or less goals. San Jose looks t bounce back from a bad 6-3 loss to Nashville here and they take on a Chicago team that has lost 5 of the last 6 and 0-4 on the road off a road win. Look for the Sharks to take this one. GL Rob V-

Game Analysis

1 Unit FREE PLAY on Denver Nuggets -7.5

The Denver Nuggets are 8-0 in their last eight games overall and on a mission to overtake the Los Angeles Lakers for the 3rd seed in the West.  They are tied with the Lakers for that spot and can overtake them today.  That would be huge because they would avoid the Thunder until the conference finals.  They know how important it is, and they will not take the Blazers lightly tonight.  The Blazers remain short-handed without two of their top three scorers in Sharpe and Grant, who combine to average 40 points per game.  They don't have the firepower without these guys to keep up with the Nuggets, who have the best offense in the NBA.  They lost 128-112 in Denver on March 22nd just two weeks ago.  Give me the Nuggets.

Game Analysis

My selection is on the 'under' between Philadelphia and San Francisco at 9:45 pm et on Monday.

The Phillies ended their weekend series in Colorado with a thud yesterday, failing to deliver the sweep of the Rockies and producing just a single run. I think we see a bit of a hangover effect as Philadelphia continues its road trip in San Francisco on Monday. Oracle Park is obviously known as one of the more 'pitcher-friendly' venues in baseball and I think that will hold true in this matchup. Andrew Painter takes the ball for the Phillies following a promising big league debut. He allowed just one earned run on four hits while striking out eight and walking just one over 5 1/3 innings last time out. The Giants still aren't hitting, ranking 23rd in the majors in weighted on base average over the last week. Journeyman Adrian Houser will start for San Francisco. He has obviously proven himself capable as a mid-to-back of the rotation starter over the years. Like Painter, he had a positive first outing, yielding one earned run on six hits while striking out four and walking one in 5 1/3 innings. Neither bullpen has been lights out in the early going but I do think both relief corps' are capable in this matchup. Of note, both 'pens should be well-stocked as they've both logged just north of 20 collective innings over the last week. Between the two teams, we've seen five converted saves and only one blown so far this season. Take the under (8*).
