    I took Memphis last night but I also bet OKC to win series 4-3 before the game at +161 so now I have OKC ML+161 game 7. Gotta like the chances of that hitting.

    Um, Chicago is the number three market, and Dallas is number five.

    Bulls with the MVP, Miami with the big 3 both teams the 2 most talked about teams the entire season. Then Dallas is big to. then NBA isnt gona struggle making money im sure they are not worried.

    Only way OKC wins this is if Durant and Westbrook go on a hot streak late in the game. Memphis shut them down last game so why shouldn't they do it again?

    you can look at game 1 of this series as a quick reference. thunder lost by 13 at home on 'sunday afternoon'.

    Thunder are 7-24 ATS in their last 31 Sunday games
    Grizzlies are 21-6 ATS in their last 27 Sunday games.

    i understand that OKC is the expected winner from this series.. but in this game 7- if you were to think about this game as just a matchup, not knowing what happened in previous games between the two, the VALUE is great for memphis. just a thought- maybe tease memphis up and take heat + some serious points tomorrow.. BOL for all.

    OKC seems like the play after the nap they took in the 4th quarter of game 6.

    Not so sure that the Thunder are the play this time around. OKC winning this game by upwards of 7 points is a stretch. Game 5 was a hangover from the triple OT game for Memphis; no way in hell were they going to win that one. The Thunder are just way too erratic for my liking. I think Durant is one of the most overrated players in the league. Yea, i said it.

    I disagree. Chicago is the third largest TV market. Dallas Ft. Worth is the 5th largest market. Miami is the 16th largest market. Finally, whether OKC or Memphis, both of those teams supply interesting story lines and garner attention.

    Are you saying if LA and NY aren't in it then there is no interest. The NBA is drooling right now with the Miami/Chicago matchup, which will garner huge ratings. Two of the top five markets and three of the top twenty markets are involved. Consequently, I think your comment is misplaced.

    Miami and Chicago are small market teams? Other than NY and LA you don't get any bigger. Boston is small compared to Chicago and Miami. Chicago is actually the third biggest market in the US.

    The NBA doesn't care about the market size. They care about stars. Memphis has Zach but he is not a star (yet) like Durant and Westbrook. Dallas is a team people don't really like watching but OKC people love to watch.

    Miami and Bulls may get the highest rating for a series of all time.

    OKLA CITY will come thru at home in a hard fought game-these Sunday afternoon games seem so darn different. Some players enjoy the time change some do not-most games are almost always at night. just my opinion is all-no basis point.

    A lot of people will go on Memphis here because "it's no way they will lose by more than 6". Guess what, when the Thunder REALLY needed the W, they won by....check it...27 points. And Durant won't be shutdown again to 11 points, that's a given. I am on OKC -6 here.
