dime bet 805 OKL -10.0 (-105) Bookmaker.com vs 806 DET
Analysis:
NBA Pick #1: 805 Oklahoma City Thunder @ 806 Detroit Pistons
Rating: 3 units - Single Dime Play
Pick: Oklahoma City Thunder (-10) (Play up to -11)
Odds: -105 / 1.95 on Pinnacle Sports OR -105 / 1.95 on Bookmaker
Detroit is a complete mess right now. They even got humiliated at home against Philadelphia on a back to back spot last night. Even when the Pistons' frontcourt has a clear edge in a match up, they ju«st can't be efficient. Detroit will now face Oklahoma City, who will have Durant playing his third game of the season. The Thunder had already some time to adjust to having both Durant and Westbrook back, therefore I expect them to play at a good level today, on a revenge game for them, as they lost at home against the Pistons a few weeks ago.
I actually took the Pistons on their game at Oklahoma City, who was still without Durant and Westbrook at the time. I said that the Pistons had a clear size edge in that match up and the Pistons grabbed 56% of the rebounds in that game, while outscoring the Thunder 44-40 at the paint. The difference is that Oklahoma City with Durant and Westbrook back will absolutely destroy the Pistons' poor defense in here. Jennings also played his best game of the season at Oklahoma City, but he's on a huge slump right now. I believe this is going to be a clear blowout win for Oklahoma City and so, I'll be taking them in here.
