Why the Thunder Will Cover (-5.5)
The Thunder is the first team to ever start a season with 5 straight wins by 12 or more points. I’m not sure they’re going to make it a sixth one tonight in LA, but I do think they cover the spread. Second game of a back-to-back or not, OKC is playing at a ridiculous level on the defensive end, and because they are so deep, there’s really no reason for a lack of energy to be an excuse.
Why the Game Will NOT Hit the Over (220)
Because it is a SEGABABA, I think the Thunder may slow the game down at times on the offensive end. The defense is already going to be amped up, so put all that together, and I think they finish just under the point total.
