    I know, but books came up with this line for a reason. If they wanted more UNDER action, they would make this line 120.5.
    I wouldn't make any large bets on this obviously, will probably parlay OKC +4.5/UNDER 119.5

    Over or unders are harder to call imo. Might just go with GS -8.

    If you look at simply ppg given up, it will look skewed because they play high caliber offenses, but they play solid defense by todays standards
    And other teams don't play high caliber offenses? Do the Thunder have some kind of special schedule where they play teams nobody else does?

    I've given up trying to beat GS at home ATS - cost me way more in losses than wins. OKC also has a terrible ATS record on the road. The only glimmer I see possibly for OKC is that GS is coming off a long road trip and might come out flat. Good luck in your plays...

    Apparently they do have some kind of special schedule, they're dead last in every sos ranking I could find

    This is a good thread and reminds me of a vending machine at a factory I worked at when I was young. When the horn would sound, everyone would line up at the snack machine and buy something different. A couple posts stuck out to me.

    @goat def going to watch the entire game and take notes on the Thunder's defense. Sounds like you know what you are talking about here but I'm going to watch close.

    @ByAnYMe9n$ Very interesting post you made. I did not even consider it until you laid it out there. Everyone is in the Bay area for the big game Sunday and Curry has already said there will be a Win followed by a Win (by Panthers) ... all eyes are going to be on Curry and his Warriors tonight and we know how GS feeds off of the energy. So, I'm also going to pay special attention to additional celebrities at the game tonight and of course the attempt or display of some serious razzle dazzle by the Splash Bros and crew.

    Still have a hard time discounting KD and Westbrook and it's going to make them look really really STUPID if they get chumped up bad tonight so this is a great game for pre game and post game analysis as well as listening to the commentators and trying to gain clarity and information/data for future games. After all, knowledge is KING !

    That's hard to believe considering they haven't played the Warriors yet and have only played the Spurs once (think they've only played the Clippers and Cavs once too?), but I doubt you're making that up. Kinda weird but whatever.

    Wait do you mean strength of schedule over the whole season or over games played so far? I checked and I was right, they've only played 3 of their 13 games against the Warriors, Spurs, Cavs and Clippers.

    I think we're saying the same thing

    OKC has had a very weak schedule up to this point, their strength of schedule is dead last in every on I've found

    I think it's for games played so far

    No wonder I thought their D was good They've been playing Philly and Milwaukee all year

    Oh ok lol I misunderstood. I figured anyway considering their division it would be hard for them to have the strongest SOS in the West anyway (anyway all teams have very similar schedules).

    They're 11th in defensive rating so they're more of an average team on that side. They can turn it up on D on occasion but it's not always there with them.

    who just jumped on the bandwagon ?

    OKC doing just fine and not needing to play super intense defense just yet. Not with Curry forcing 4 point bricks. I think my +8.5 is gonna stand.

    Also, I'm surprised Michael J Corbin picked GS and over when just a year or more ago he said Westbrook was the best conditioned athlete in the game.

    Just took -7.5 GSW live. 3 of 6 from 3's OkC (v 3/10 GSW). GSW should even that up pretty quick.
    Looking good anyone on the over 234 with live line 240 (touched 245 that quarter).

    132 at half and 231 O/U I'm thinking why did I not play the over and allow doubt to creep in. 99 points in the 2H will be gravy

    The over was the play and JJGOLD's GS & the OVER is def lookin' like da play

    Those are the bets that always get you. The one that makes you say there's no way this is going over the line is too high. Just look at GS last couple games they've been scoring 115+ even there opps are scoring 110+ then you factor the hype of this game it just screams over to me

    If we could just get 100% out of KD and West for this 4Q OKC could actually win this game
