After dropping the first two games of their first-round series with the Portland Trail Blazers on the road, the Oklahoma City Thunder didn’t panic and got back into the swing of things with a win at home in Game 3. Russell Westbrook and company have an opportunity to even up the series at two games apiece in Game 4 tonight. Sportsbooks opened the Thunder as 5.5-point home favorites with a total of 223.
It’s no secret the Thunder were able to flip a switch with the series shifting back to their home floor, and I expect them to come out firing in Game 4 and even things up tonight. This series has the makings of going the distance with home teams having such a big advantage, so I’m on the Thunder to cover the 5.5 points and come away with a win in Game 4.
The home team is 5-1 ATS in the last six meetings between the Trail Blazers and Thunder. The Trail Blazers are 2-5 ATS in their last seven meetings with the Thunder. The Trail Blazers are 1-4 ATS in their last five road games.away
