The Nuggets plus-6 are a decent play, paired with the Lakers on the money line in the nigthtcap. Boston couldn\u2019t beat the Hornets even with Chris Paul out, so LA should be able to win even if Bryant sits out again.<\/p>\n<h4>Get Your Free $10 Bet Today at Sportsbook.com<\/h4>\n<p>Visit the Bet Menu at half-time to place your bet.
