    Have the books over-estimated the Thunder tonight?

    OKC has not been asked to cover this many points since they played Sacramento in early Jan. And even then they couldn't do it, winning by only 10 while allowing 103 points. In fact, Durant & the Thunder haven't covered a 13+ spread all season.
    Why will they cover tonight?
    I don't think they will.
    Any reason to think otherwise?

    what are you talking about? thunder has certainly beat a bunch of teams recently by 13+. that could possibly be a reason why its so high now

    I didn't say they haven't beat teams by 13+
    I said they haven't covered a spread of 13+
    Thought I made that clear.
    This is important because you are trying to predict when they win by 13+ you are trying to predict when they do so, when they books ask them to!
    Get where I'm coming from now?

    vegas knows squares blindly bet thunder especially on fridays when people who normally know better than to bet on the NBA are forced to bet NBA bc there is nothing else to choose from.

    I have realized that the NBA is fixed on Fridays and Sundays so i only take dogs on these days.

    Betting on a fix when you aren't in on it just isn't good gambling!
