Bettors Beware: OKC are Awful as Dogs

The San Antonio Spurs rolled the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 1 of their second-round series to the tune of a 124-92 beat down, but the Thunder will be looking to even things up tonight in the Lone Star State. That loss saw a recurring trend resurface, as the Thunder are now 0-9 SU in their last nine games as underdogs.

Shark Bites
  • The Spurs are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games after an ATS win.
  • The Thunder are 2-11-1 ATS in their last 14 games as an underdog of 8.0 or less.
  • The total has gone UNDER in three of the Spurs' last four games with one day off between games.

In fact, the three worst playoff losses of Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook’s time together in OKC have all happened against San Antonio. LaMarcus Aldridge dominated the opposition in Game 1, scoring 38 points in less than 30 minutes of time on the floor.

San Antonio did a great job sharing the ball in the series opener, finishing with 39 assists while all but one of their players who received minutes had at least one (Andre Miller was the lone exception). The Spurs are 43-1 at home this season and 34-0 SU when Tim Duncan is in the lineup.
