    OKC Thunder +125

    500 for 625

    Thunder are a bad matchup for Rockets

    Don't agree. Ibaka is not what he should be and Howard (as much as I hate him) will be a good matchup there and the Thunder do not have enough defenders to squelch the Houston attack. That, plus recent schedule and a few other factors and Rockets are the play here.

    Recent schedule favours Rockets? Thunder had a day rest and it's only their 3rd game in 7 days. Rockets just finished a 4 games road trip, on b2b, 4th game in 7 days and nearly every starter played 40 mins yesterday.

    Hou plays better on short rest. And I wouldn't make a habit out of backing this Thinder team in Jan.

    Tat are you backing Houston here? These Thursday night games are generally a no bet for me but there is value with this line for Houston. Durant should be a good prop bet, but I feel like my money is better invested on the 49ers this weeknd.

    who is the bad matchup? If you have watched the thunder without westbrook they look awful and struggle to score. Reggie jackson is not a #1 pg in the league. Westbrook takes all the heat off durant and makes this team go. They have looked terrible since he has gone out....the rest stuff is overrated as you saw with the heat last night if thats your other angle

    Comparing matchups can be overrated too. Miami Heat just lost 3 in a row to inferior teams. They even lost to the 76ers earlier in the season.

    Only if they can get the number 2nd or 3rd seed. They are only 2-14 v .500 teams as of now. This is also a record which made them 1 of the worst v.500 teams in the Eastern Conf.

    Bang on.....

    To those of you that believe that their schedule favours one team or another....that doesn't always mean that one team is tired because they have played a load lately.

    BadLuckSanta, it's the NBA.

    The NBA is all rigged bullshit and each game is literally a coin flip.

    College Basketball is pure and where the money is to be found.

    Oklahoma is playing winning defense this half. Just saw more of it with Ibaka denying Howard. Incredible how good their half court defense can be.

    See how the Rockets played in the 2nd half? They are totally exhausted after a high tempo 1st half and their road trip fatigue starts to set in. They may have the better players today but they are still humans afterall.

    Congrats to all Thunder backers.
