    OKC @ Detroit....Looks so easy.

    Other than being on the road, I don't see why the Thunder are only favored by 6.5 points. They should blow the Pistons out of the Palace. Please wake me up as to why this line is accurate?

    detroit has so much more to play for than okc. hungry for their first W, home crowd, just saw okc and played them well in okc. have confidence.

    okc prone to take nights off like all good teams, yesterday was a spot for miami, today may even be as well. +7 looks good for detroit personally, but wont play either.

    Agreed. In terms of line value, being favored 6.5 on the road is like being favored by 12 at home.

    Taking DET ML +245 for a small play. DET is at home, played well against OKC recently, and they need a win. BOL

    Exactly what I'm thinking. Taking OKC seems about as square as you can get, but I might bite for half a unit.

    Is teasing in the NBA even worth it, on bet365 its more profitable to use the alternate spreads for example:

    IF you were on DET +10.5 and HOU +9:
    Teaser odds: 1.833 to 1.00
    Alternate: 2.20 to 1.00

    I'm on MIA -2, OKC -2, (NFL) PIT -6.5 and Under 47.5 parlay, ~ +300

    No reason to take Det +6.5 if they cover they will win SU, if you don't think they can win take OKC -6.5.

    In case you guys are interested, BetVictor have put up a player prop for Russell Westbrook at 6.5 Blocked Shots - Even money for the Under, i assume this is a mistake and should be assists.

    Line looks right. Wasn't it just -12 the other day in OKC? If you take into affect that home court advantage is 3 points then the line seems right.
