Orlando +1 is a strong play

[BigDofBA]

I feel like my Thunder loser this one.

I disagree. GL.

On Thunder big tonight. I have been losing my shirt in NBA so your probably good here.

[lunchbawks]

Im starting to think Orlando is the play. I realllllly liked OKC last night but not anymore... Dwight always plays okc great, and thunder can't defend on B2B. Tha

you know your team bigd. thanks

You're actually wrong about the Thunder not being able to defend on a B2B.

People rip the Thunder's defense way more than they should. I think OKC is 6th in the NBA as far as opponents FG % is concerned. Teams don't shoot a good percentage against us.

The reason the Thunder give up so many points is because we score so fast so teams have way more offensive possession. Last I looked the Thunder were at or near the top in PPG.

Anyway, as someone that actually follows the team, I have a variety of reason for thinking Orlando will win.

I feel like OKC will go 2-1 on this road trip and this is the game I think they lose. Orlando will be ready to play and pumped up for the game. OKC hasn't played well in Orlando in recent years. OKC just had a tough game in Philly the night before. I just expect a let down performance tonight.

I posted a similar thread when the Thunder lost to the Clippers. I love how people on this site call me a homer, yet I predict games the Thunder will lose and no one says anything.

Good luck.

you know your team bigd. thanks

Thanks man!

Did you see the deal Molina got today? I'm a huge Cardinals fan and I'm glad we locked him up.

FYI, I will be rooting for the Thunder to win but it's going to be tough.

Thunder lost last year to the Magic @ Orlando but they didn't have Mohammed and Perkins that game. Howard dropped 40.

[face]

orlando is not very deep, once the starters get tired the scrubs come in. thunder bench way better

[cwbuff44]

Hope you're wrong. I took last night as more of a "shaking the rust off" game after the break. I don't expect them to have another quarter like the 3rd last night.. I'm going big on them tonight. I could lose my ass, but hey...we'll see.

yes, we had to keep Molina. It's good to see Mr. Dewitt spent some money. I know you won't be betting against your team.

Orlando 1st qtr ez money...

How was last night shaking off the rust for OKC????

If anything, it should have been Philly shaking off the rust. Durant and Westbrook played in the All-Star game. In addition, I seriously doubt professional athletes that play basketball every day of their life get rusty after four days.

Good luck to everyone taking the Thunder. I just don't feel good about going big on them here.

on the magic as well

Well so did Igoudala. And I was talking about the shooting stroke that seemed to go so dead in the 3Q for OKC. And how was it shaking off the rust for Philly? They already played the night before and should have been back in the groove and loose, whereas it was OKC's first game back. That's all I was saying. Just an idea. Not putting it out there as fact. It was OKC's first game back from the break, should have a better one tonight.

BigD, can you read the write-up in my thread and see if you agree?

+1 cards fan here

trusting you on OKC , took orlando +2.5 ,looks safer

[BigDofBA]

Let me clarify that I think Orlando is a strong play but nothing is a lock and I will be rooting for the Thunder.

Good luck guys.

Gotcha. It will be a good game. May come down to the wire!

[BigDofBA]

The game is goin about as I expected so far. OKC looks sluggish.

[Les_Nuts]

Had OKC -1 but after 1st Orlando timeout, got them at +3.5. By no means are the Thunder out of this, infact I'm still confident they will win but I'm glad I listened to your advice and got some security. Here's to a 1/2/3 point Thunder win!

[moshi]

Thunder TT o96

[Mikail]

OKC -1 2nd half. This looks too easy. I'm already on OKC big or i'd pound this silly.

[Allure]

Howard is a ridiculous bum.

[BigTimeWinner]

Thunder are waaay more efficient than orlando ... orlando had a chance to go up by 10 pts quite a few times and the diff. is only 3 now. Westbrook is ...

[sportfan]

I expected Thunder shoot better , they were flat in the 1h

[Pauulzcappin]

Thunder needs some timely stops in the second half. Magic shooting 55% FG and 50% 3PT, what are the odds this will continue...

[Mikail]

I expect a BIG 2nd half for OKC

[sportfan]

Riding it out my over play , need 91 pts

[Pauulzcappin]

Not looking so good anymore. Thunder needs to step up the D

[lunchbawks]

Thunder just can't bear Orlando
