Thunder's Mavericks player picks and predictions
prediction
Thunder 125, Mavericks 113
money line
The Thunder had an impressive home record of 26 wins and 7 losses. Only Boston and Denver have more home wins than them. Wednesday's loss ended their home winning streak at nine. They haven't lost consecutive home games since losing to the New Orleans Pelicans and Warriors on November 1st and 3rd.
The Mavs are 18-13 on the road this season and have won three of their last four road games.
However, the Thunder are healthy and the odds are overwhelmingly likely for the Thunder to win. You have to be really confident in an upset, and I'm not, and betting on the Thunder on the -550 moneyline just doesn't make sense.
