NBA - 709 Charlotte Bobcats @ 710 Oklahoma City Thunder
Projected Line: Oklahoma City by 8 points
Oklahoma City is coming from three tough games against the Clippers, Boston and Philadelphia, so it's normal that they will relax a bit against Charlotte that can actually be a tough matchup for the Thunder! Oklahoma City has been very turnover prone and they have the second worse turnover rate of the league. Now against Charlotte's huge defensive pressure that turns them into a top team in creating turnovers, they will cause problems to the Thunder tonight.
Charlotte has been a poor defensive rebounding team, but Oklahoma City's system makes them a poor team in grabbing offensive rebounds. Charlotte's main problem on defense has been defending the center spot, as Al Horford showed by shooting 11-11 FG at the rim against them. However, on tonight's contest, they won't have problems against Kendrick Perkins. Therefore, the Bobcats will be able to put pressure on the perimeter, without getting pound on the inside. I like Charlotte's spot for tonight to make this game a bit closer than expected and so, I'll be taking the Bobcats in here.
Pick: 3 units (Single Dime Play) on 709 Charlotte Bobcats (+11,5) @ -110 / 1.91 on Bookmaker
