    It looks like everyone is on the grizz. They cant lose anymore , they always cover, westbrook is a cancer, randolph is the best big man in the league. I see the thunder coming out strong tonight and getting a big time win over the grizz.

    Yes, a much better effort from OKC is expected tonight. However, this line is still pretty high....after game 1 I was thinking this line would be around 4, but it didn't budge.

      I was kind of thinking about it. Bodog has Thunder -6.5(-105) but I wouldn't be surprised to see that climb up to -7 or -7.5 unless a lot of people think like this and "pound the thunder"

        Once the thunders big men figure out that the grizzlies big men like to pass to each other as well as an open shooter they will stop jumping all over the place and give the thunder a chance to dominate... I have to see that happen before i ride the thunder... Until then im ridin the grizz train... GL!!!

          NBA is gonna rig this one for OKC ! Bill Kennedy is top zebra.
          Can't risk a short series, and gotta protect the OKC brand name !!

                  Yes.

                  And a BOS/OKC tease looks mighty tasty as well.

                    Thunder are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games following a double-digit loss at home.

                    But I'm throwing that out the window and taking Memphis again. They've been really good to me so far after game one vs. San Antonio and I've taken them every game since.
                    Plus, Grizz are 4-1 ATS in the last 5 meetings between these two teams.

                    I think Grizz know how to play OKC and keep it close enough, even though I hope OKC gets the win.

                          Why not? Memphis has just been getting lucky for the first 6 games of the playoffs.

                            No. This is not going to be the factor that changes the Thunder's fortune in Game 2. I would be very surprised if OKC was able to disrupt this passing. OKC just needs to take better care of the ball when it's in their possession and do a better job of closing out the paint for the driving guards. Conley was able to disrupt the Thunder defense with ease all night long.

                              I like the Celtics and those points a ton. I foresee a Celtics 6-8 point win. This is the same Heat team that we have seen the whole year. The stars will take their turns like they have all year, Wade won't fill it like he did, Lebron will be the same Lebron vs. Celtics Lebron that we've seen for years...James Jones splits his 3 pt production in half. Celtics go at them tonight hard. If they lose down the stretch it will be due to the fact that 1) shaq didn't go tonight and 2) a lack of frontcourt defensive depth...that said the Celtics will still cover.

                              LB, i think OKC is the play to go there. I'll be on it.

                                Come on man. "Just getting lucky?" I admit there has been a fair amount of luck, but this team is scrappy as hell and the combo of Gasol and Randolph is lethal. Both guys have totally stepped up their game for the post-season.

                                The team is playing amazing defense and their shooting is solid. This is a team coming together at the right time, not just luck!

                                      Can easily see okc blowing the grizz out tonight. Over looks good too but the line has gone down.

                                                      no. memphis is a good team. okc can cover who knows. but 6.5 is a LOT of points. okc is a 2 man team offensively.

                                                        memphis is notorious with winning ATS in the Nba

                                                        Even when I said that, I already took OKC when the lines came out. LOL

                                                                as long as durant continues to shoot. okc's bench production is the difference right now. Westbrook has a habit of trying to do too much and take over games in the 4th quarter, something he's incapable of doing. Right around the 5 minute mark in the 4th, you will know who is going to cover by the way th eball is moving offensively for the Thunder.
