Sunday's Picks

Thunder +2 vs Golden State: OKC is coming off a 2 point win against the Kings, a game that saw them almost blow an 11 point lead in the final minuets. The Warriors are 1-4 ATS in their last five games but are a good home team which is why they are favored. Nonetheless the Thunder are flat out better. Golden State plays no defense which is a problem when you are playing Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook. The Thunder have won four of their last five and are 3-2 ATS. Take the two points and you will be happy.
Pick: OKC

Lakers +1.5 vs Orlando: The Lakers are 4-0 ATS in their last four games and 5-0 ATS in their last five road games. The Lakers own Amway Arena going 4-0 ATS their and are 4-0-1 overall against the Magic of late. Also the Lakers are just playing better basketball than Orlando. Since the trade rumors began to swirl the team has come together and started playing some defense. They went into Boston and won by 6 and followed that up with a thrashing of the Knicks. Bynum is looking good of late and they have the size to keep Dwight at bay.
Pick: Lakers
