The Oklahoma City Thunder Ready to Rumble and Make Some Noise
By Doug Upstone
I ran short on time today to complete the line moves article, thus I have a substitute along other key information. After averaging 110.2 points a game during 10-game winning streak, the Oklahoma City Thunder offense has been stagnant the last two times out. They only scored 81 points at Washington and were held to 86 versus Memphis on Monday night.
Tonight they will face Minnesota and the Thunder is seventh in the NBA in points allowed at 97.4 per game while the Timberwolves are a pedestrian 19th at 101.6 PPG. Given the circumstances, the situation definitely favors the home team in this NBA system.
Play ON teams like the Thunder who concede 92-98 PPG, against a defensive team who permits 98-102 PPG, after 42 or more contests, after scoring 90 points or less in two straight games.
How this works is teams like OKC maintain their defensive averages, but rebound when it comes to scoring, especially against teams that are only fair defensively. The reason for the number of games played is to tell us a pattern has been established.
In the past three years, this system is 23-4 ATS, 85.1 percent and might be worth a look.
