- #552 OKLAHOMA CITY (-) over LA Lakers at 8:10 PM EST
Off a pair of straight up losses to the Rockets and Lakers, the Thunder will storm back with a strong performance in this right back rematch. Los Angeles connected on a season-high 22 three-point shots in Sunday's 27-point road win over Oklahoma City and head coach Mark Daigneault and his players will make the adjustments needed to pick up this revenge dub and cover.
Technically speaking, this is a highly profitable spot for OKC. When coming off two or more straight up losses, the Thunder own a respectable 43-27-1 ATS record including a phenomenal 20-5-1 ATS provided their opponent sports a team won/loss percentage of. 577 or higher. Even better, when battling a foe that storms the court off a blowout win of 10 points or more, Oklahoma City has been worth the financial risk posting a proud 40-16 SU and 40-15-1 ATS mark including an amazing 27-2-1 ATS provided its opponent smashed the Las Vegas pointspread by 13.5-points or more in that blowout victory.
This isn't the best wagering role for LA either. As a guest going into revenge, the Lakers have struggled posting a soft 54-75-2 ATS record including a rough 42-63-2 ATS provided this is a non-division game. With those two parameters live and head coach JJ Redick and his troops checking in with confidence off a straight up win, this team trend crashes to a miserable 18-36-1 ATS including a horrible 6-17 ATS provided their opponent takes the floor without steam off two or more straight up losses. Lastly, when coming in off a blowout win of 25 points or more, Los Angeles holds a timid 19-37-2 ATS tally in its next contest including a weak 10-24-2 ATS provided its opponent enters off a straight up loss.
The Lakers sent a message to the best team in the Western Conference on Sunday. This time, it will be the Thunder that makes a statement. Take Oklahoma City. Thanks and best of luck, Tom.
