    Thunder -1.5 over Boston in OKC on Sunday.
    Kinda like the thunder here. I see that Ot win giving them confidence. Boston is usually tough on the road and this figures to be a good game but i think the thunder pulls it out. Opinions.

            yes the thunder will get the win
            after the win against portland they have the momentum they need
            it was a confidence booster... and for the celtics it's time to lose after two lucky ot-wins @home

                  Line shot down from -2.5 to -1.5 quickly. I will watch it tomorrow. Lean towards the over myself.

                      celtics are the play

                      books are overvaluing the thunder at home

                      they have no shooters and durant is slow to start this year

                      celtics will hold the thunder below 90 at home and will overpower them on the boards and in the paint

                      celtics win in okc sunday

                        I have learned the hard way not to bet against the Celtics. Too many clutch players. Thunder is my second favorite team, personally, but my bias is not gonna make me put money on them. I have my money on the Celtics. Rondo is playing better than he ever has. Peirce and Allen could not be more clutch. Thunder have a chance, but definately are MORE vulnurable in clutch situations than the Celtics. Celtics are a better closing team. Sorry to all you ppl that accidently put your money on the Thunder before I wrote this. You all can kiss that money good bye!

                        Of course, if I am wrong, then I am out $50 lol!

                          Boston is on a 5 games in 7 days kick...they are gonna shit the bed one of these games, it's either going to be tomorrow @OKC or Monday in Dallas. Pick your game. OKC isn't that bad...they are young, the season is still young and they are still getting their legs. Not Finals bound but they will win some games.

                            I was leaning Thunder as well, they finally were able to really clamp down on defense vs Portland the other night. It was like a complete reversal of the whole season and their defensive struggles. I am also pretty certain that no team won more games vs good teams last year than OKC. OKC got embarrassed by Utah in their last home game and I think the crowd will really be rocking in this one and OKC won't come out and lay an egg like they did last time. Boston has won four in a row and their last two went to OT. There may be a little fatigue and I don't think they will be desperate for the win like OKC will be.

                            Only thing that bothers me is that line moved quickly from -2.5 OKC to -1.5 OKC but I gues with 75% on Boston and a big majority on the Boston ML that this is pretty normal movement.

                                  would lean under 197 in this one, spread is a toss-up from my point of view (witch is slim lol)

                                    There is no guarantee that rondo even plays, he will be limited if he plays

                                      I like your outlook on this one. This game is hard to cap. But Boston will loose to Dallas. Boston is a mature team. 5 games in 7 days is alot, two of those overtime, and Dallas is rested and off a home loss. Cheers. Points coming your way my ManBearPig friend.

                                          Celtics +1.5 is the right play here.

                                            Believe me guys, put all stats aside. This is a big game for the team, city, and entire state. Because it hasn't happened often, when the 'stars' come to Oklahoma (Lakers, Lebron, Celts) the Thunder plays its absolute best with maximum energy from the team and fans, and the 'stars' play half ass and are only thinking of the airport. Time to THUNDER UP! OKC -1

                                                    The side is a hard one to call. I like over 197.5 at this point. Best of luck

                                                            holding off for more info closer to game time.
                                                            also concerned about what officials will call this game.

                                                              Might be the square in me, but I'm leaning toward the Celtics based off of their play the past week. But then again, the Bucks did take them to OT... Hmmm...

                                                                The Celtics' point guard has been battling a minor yet quite painful case of plantar fascitis. It's spread to both feet, the left more so than the right, and it reached the point Friday morning where team trainer Ed Lacerte told coach Doc Rivers that Rondo wouldn't play that night against the Bulls.

                                                                Should be very hard for Rondo to cover one of the fastest point guards in the league, Russell Westbrook, with plantar fascitis.
