Game: Oklahoma City Thunder @ Phoenix Suns
Time: Sunday 04/06 9:05 PM Eastern
Pick: Oklahoma City -2.5 (-108) at 5Dimes
A short price on Oklahoma City, the No. 2 seed in the West. They are off a loss, but that was a tired situational spot and the Thunder is 11-5-2 ATS following a defeat. Oklahoma City is fifth in the NBA in scoring, 10th in points allowed, and tops in the West in field goal shooting defense allowing 43.3% shooting (third best in the NBA). The Thunder is 15-5-1 ATS playing on one days rest. Phoenix is fighting for its playoff life, but are not a strong defensive team; 21st in points allowed, 16th in field goal shooting defense. The Suns are 1-4 ATS in their last five games following a win of more than 10 points. And when these teams meet, the Thunder is 6-2 ATS in the last eight meetings, the road team is 9-4 ATS in the last 13 meetings, and OKC is 6-1 ATS at Phoenix. Play Oklahoma City.

Phoenix Suns +2.5 (Buy to +3 for -120)
I really like the Suns in this spot. Desperate for the win to potentially jump into the 8th seed in the West plus OKC comes in banged up. Perkins and Westbrook may play tonight but both guys are nursing injuries and the effectiveness will be in question.
Yea, Durant is on an epic run and will probably score over 25 points again for the 41st straight time but remember, the last time OKC went to Phoenix they lost by 6 and Westrbook ped 36 points in that game to go along with 9 assists. Even if he plays tonight, I do not see him putting up those type of numbers.
2nd straight road game for OKC and pretty much a lock for the 2 seed in the West with 2 games in hand over the Clippers, I feel Phoenix will be the more inspired team and getting them at +3 is a solid move.
