NBA Sports Betting Picks: Oklahoma City at Dallas
The Oklahoma City Thunder need a big win to prove they can play with the elite teams in the wet and a game against the ailing Dallas Mavericks may do the trick. Â Diamond Sportsbook International (DSI) has the NBA covered with the latest odds and wagering opportunities on every game.
The Dallas Mavericks have the injuries adding up to their most crucial players on the team. The Mavericks already had an injury to their leading scorer when Dirk Nowitzki went down with an injury, but the news got worse when Caron Butler went down. The Mavericks’ third-leading scorer received a knee and injury is under evaluation, but will miss an extended period of time.
With Butler out of the lineup Shawn Marion scored 22 points and DeShawn Stevenson added 21 as both players hit their season-highs in the last game out. It is yet to be seen if they can maintain that pace, but they will need to if they have hopes of beating the Thunder.
Kevin Durant and the Thunder are one of the better young teams in the NBA. They have young talent at nearly every positron and boast a winning road record already notching ten wins on the season. The latest loss to the Spurs could linger for this team a long time.
The Thunder lost 101-74 against the San Antonio Spurs. The loss against the Spurs is nothing to be ashamed about since they are the best team in the NBA this season. However this was the worst team ever by the Thunder and for that reason the Thunder need to rebound against a good team to restore faith in their fan base.
The Mavericks are 17-39-3 ATS in their last 59 home games and 16-34-1 ATS in their last 51 Thursday games. The Thunder are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 Thursday games and 38-14 ATS in their last 52 games following a loss.
This game will be televised on TNT and will gave the chance to show a national television audience that they are true title contenders when they face off against the Dallas Mavericks.
