NBA - 513 Charlotte Bobcats @ 514 Oklahoma City Thunder
Projected line: 193 points | Oklahoma City by 20 points
Charlotte is coming from a home loss against the Nets, even though the team from New Jersey played without their star Deron Williams for most of the game. The Nets completely dominated the boards battle and that was the key of the game, as both teams were just horrible on offense. Charlotte shot 17-38 FG at the rim for a ridiculous 45% FG and their outside shooting was terrible as well. The only thing the Bobcats did decently was scoring in transition with 18 fast break points and 8-12 FG.
On the other side, Oklahoma City was upset at home by Cleveland, who paid the price of having a very lazy mindset during the game. Everything on this game can be resumed to effort. Cleveland outplayed the Thunder on offensive rebound rates with 39.6 vs 21.1% with 21-8 on offensive rebounds. Besides that, the Thunder shot just 10-17 FT with Durant + Harden + Westbrook having a total of 12 FT attempts when they average a total of 20.1 FTA this season! They had a very high volume of ISO plays with 20%, but just 0.7 PPP! For tonight, I expect a bounce back for Oklahoma City against the worst team of the league. With the Thunder being motivated for tonight, I believe they have all the tools to completely crush the Bobcats on this contest, as the matchup will be completely favorable to them. Maggette defending Durant? An undersized DJ Augustin defending Westbrook? Come on! Oklahoma City should win this game by more than 20 points and so, I'll take Oklahoma City in here. I expect the Bobcats to struggle on offense tonight against a fired up Thunder team and so, I'll take the Under in here as well
