Why bet on the Oklahoma City Thunder

The Thunder (33-13) are in about as good a position as can be expected when you consider how dominant the Warriors and Spurs have been in the Western Conference this season. OKC are very comfortably sitting in third place, and are continuing to win at a very steady clip. They are a solid 8-2 in their last 10 games, and will be looking to bounce back in a big way after a surprise loss to the Brooklyn Nets in their last game. While the Thunder have done most of their winning on home court, they are still in possession of a pretty decent 12-8 record on the road, and have in fact won 3 of their last 4 road games. The Thunder can score, and their 108.5 PPG has them second in the NBA on offense. They are giving up 100.4 PPG to this point in the season.

Why bet on the New York Knicks

The Knicks (22-24) are currently sitting 2 games out of the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference, but they have shown some signs that they are good enough to claw their way back into things. That includes picking up a win on the road against the Thunder earlier in the season. They do tend to struggle a little versus teams with a .500 record or better, but they also do a pretty good job of keeping things close. The Knicks are coming into this one on a 2-game losing skid, but they have been streaky all season long, and it wouldn’t be a surprise to see them break out and get on a mini winning streak. The Knicks are averaging 99.1 PPG, and are giving up 100.7 PPG this season.

Expert Pick and Final Score Prediction

The Thunder were surprised by the Knicks the first time they met this season, but I don’t see history repeating here. I just don’t see OKC losing back to back games, which is why they get the win in this one.Oklahoma City Thunder 106 New York Knicks 97
