    Bad spot for my Thunder tonight
    I'm not betting this game because I can't bet against my team but I feel like they lose outright tonight.

    Hopefully I'm wrong. We shall see.

    Bad spot? Clips played in Denver last night which is never an easy place to bounce back from and play the next night.

        My buddy is a huge Thunder fan as well and I have little doubt he is going to come out guns blazin tonight, should be a tight game but I will take the better team on 2 days rest over the team that played in high-altitude the night before anytime. With that being said maybe it looks too easy and the Clips take this one but I won't be counting on it.

          Been working on a system my buddy noticed of Thunder over 1st half/under 2nd half. We don't play it this way every time like the other night for example but they seem to tighten things up in the 2nd half most of the time.

            The spot isn't ideal for the Clippers but I have a feeling they will get some home court cooking tonight.

            OKC is due to drop a game. They're like 16-3.

                come on now with that logic. you coulda said that when they were 13-3, 14-3, 15-3.

                and not saying you're wrong, but why is this a bad spot for the thunder in your opinion?

                  Probably the lamest logic in betting, and I see it everyday on SBR.

                    I think that angle was covered when they lost to the Wizards. I think they will win here before going on to drop a game later on.

                        The Clippers are good. It will be a tough game for OKC to win. If it was at home, I would play OKC up to 6.

                        I don't like that it's a late game out west, primetime, and the public loves OKC yet they are barely favored.

                        Even if OKC covers you will be sweating it out.

                          I don't think much is working against the Clipps. They have some momentum coming off the big win in Denver last night. And I'm not sure about it being a fatigue spot for the Clipps, they have so much youth that it shouldn't affect them much.

                                Just be honest. You are letting the lines scare you just like the mizzou game tonight. Both of these teams will cover easily.

                                  I'm not going to take LA. I hope OKC wins but I have a
                                  feeling we go down tonight.

                                  I would love to be wrong.

                                    some guy has a system thread where his rlm plays are hitting at 63% over a small sample size of i think just under 70 bets. it has to at least be a slight concern when the public hammers a certain side and the line sits still or moves the other way.

                                      You're right. They do scare me. That's why I'm not betting on either game.

                                      I'll wait for a better spot. I'm not
                                      Going to take the inferior team just because of a fishy line. I just won't play the game.

                                      I hope Texas loses too! I graduated from OU.

                                              OKC -2 and u200 are my plays on this game.

                                              I like the well-rested Thunder vs a Clips team that has to be fatigued after grinding one out at Denver

                                                I lived in Norman for five years while I was in college. It was only 20 minutes away from OKC so I was in the city often. Now I live in Tulsa.

                                                I attended a lot of Hornets games when they were here. Ironically, people here were dissapointed when we didn't get to keep the Hornets but as it turns out, we lucked out by getting the Sonics. At the time the Hornets were up and coming and the Sonics stunk.

                                                I goto a handful of games a year. It's only an hour and a half drive.

                                                  I attended a lot of Hornets games when they were here. Ironically, people here were dissapointed when we didn't get to keep the Hornets but as it turns out, we lucked out by getting the Sonics. At the time the Hornets were up and coming and the Sonics stunk.

                                                  I goto a handful of games a year. It's only an hour and a half drive.

                                                  Really good documentary, won the webby award for best sports documentary last year. It's a couple hours, so maybe watch it when you have some free time. But anyone from Seattle or OKC should watch it.

                                                    Cool. I'll watch it when I get off work.

                                                    Don't blame OKC. Stern should have let the Hornets stay here. The people of New Orleans don't even support that team or come out to the games.

                                                        I will be there.

                                                        Conventional wisdom just isnt working this year. Back to back games teams lose first win second. Or they win all 3 of a back to back to back. Crazy. Might get more realistic as season wear on and guys wear down.

                                                        OKC has a pretty fake record they have played a lot of shitty teams even their road games have been against cupcakes. The best team they have beaten is Houston Rockets. So that tells you what you need to know right there.

                                                        I wouldnt be surprised if Clippers blow them right out of Staple tonight.

                                                          Late money coming in on LA. I'm not surprised.

                                                            I see Thunder jumping out in front early, then late run by the Clips. Wouldn't bet the Thunder for the game but like first half and quarter.

                                                              Harden is starting. So i took Durant u27.5 points +148

                                                                Agree. I would take thunder small first half and if you lose that bet then you could get them at a better line for the second half.

                                                                I just have a feeling we will see some late bs in this game.
