I thought it'd be fun to do one of these on each of the boards. Please provide your response / summary below if you wish to be included in the contest.

Tough one. Not only do they have to improve by ~10 games but they will have to steal a game from a formidable opponent as well. The nuggets are my choice for biggest sleeper team so I took the over but just barely. I think they can get a home playoff win esp if they can avoid GSW.

I'm interested to see the responses on this one as I think it would have been near unanimous unders at 1.5 but above 50-50 at 0.5

Not sure I follow this whole concept. I do not gamble so all that terminology is like a foreign language, so I'll abstain. But if this is on whether the Nuggets make the playoffs or not, I believe they have a shot at it. I'll agree they are not favored to make the playoffs and would probably be legitimately called a sleeper. Do I expect them to make the playoffs? Nope, I'm predicting them to finish a very close 9th and that means I wouldn't be shocked if they made the playoffs.

If this is on whether the Nuggets win a playoff game this year, if they make the playoffs, they will almost certainly win at least one game, even against GSW. Denver has a depth of talent and someone(s) would get hot enough to give them a shot at winning and Denver has enough depth of talent to use that depth to wear down even the GSW superstars enough to steal a game (wouldn't bet on two against GSW though lol).
