Play Of The Day Oklahoma City at Denver Thursday
Oklahoma City will try to get back on track Thursday Night NBA Picks in Denver after losing two of its last three NBA Picks games. The Thunder had one of their most explosive games of the season in a 124-118 overtime NBA Picks victory against Denver on Feb. 19. Kevin Durant had a career-best 51 points, Russell Westbrook scored 40 and Serge Ibaka had 14 points, 15 rebounds and a career-best 11 blocks. The Thunder has lost seven of their past eight 2012 NBA Picks games at the Pepsi Center.
TV: 9 p.m. ET, FS Oklahoma (Thunder), Altitude (Nuggets)
ABOUT THE THUNDER (32-10): With three big stars and a sound bench, the Thunder seem unlikely to make a trade before Thursday’s deadline. “I like our guys,” Thunder coach Scott Brooks said of his West-leading club. “I like the team we have. Still, we're not where we need to be and we're going to keep improving and we should.” Sixth man James Harden averages 17.1 points, the most among NBA reserves. Harden has career highs in two of his last three 2012 MLB Odds games, scoring 30 and 33 points.
ABOUT THE NUGGETS (24-19): Unlike the last time the Nuggets played the Thunder, they will have Danilo Gallinari and Nene to help offset Durant, who averages 30 points against Denver. “We'll have more flexibility with Gallo," Nuggets coach George Karl said. “The game in OKC, we were playing him (Durant) mostly with our bench guys, and Arron (Afflalo) some. And that's a hard challenge for a role player, to stop maybe the best player in basketball.”
BUZZER BEATERS:
1. Although the Nuggets have won seven of the last eight home 2012 NBA Point Spreads games against the Thunder/Sonics, the Oklahoma City franchise is 7-10 at the Pepsi Center since 2002-03.
2. Denver played in just one overtime game last season, but already has played in seven this season, going 5-2.
3. Oklahoma City is 8-1 in games after a loss this season. Stay tuned for 2012 MLB Picks, UFC Odds and lastest Horse Racing odds.
