BETTING TRENDS

Atlanta are 5-2 SU in their last 7 games.

Atlanta are 3-6 ATS in their last 9 games against Oklahoma City.

Atlanta are 4-1 SU in their last 5 games on the road.

The total has gone OVER in 6 of Atlanta's last 6 games when playing on the road against OKC.

Oklahoma City are 9-0 ATS in their last 9 games.

The total has gone UNDER in 4 of Oklahoma City's last 5 games.

Oklahoma City are 5-1 SU in their last 6 games.

The total has gone OVER in 9 of Oklahoma City's last 11 games against Atlanta.

 

Prediction

The Hawks were on a roll but they have lost their last 2 games and already lost against the Thunder earlier this season at home. The Thunder are playing their best basketball right now and have won 7 of their last 10 games. Both of these teams like to play just offense and don't play much defense and are allowing over 115 points per game. The over has cashed in 6 of the last 6 head to head games so I think that's the best play.
