Result:
WIN

The Oklahoma City Thunder look like they mean business this year as they are playing at a high level and off to a 17-4 start. They enter tonight's game vs. the Hornets on a seven game winning streak. All that does is influence the line. before you get caught up in winning streaks, teams that win seven in a row in the NBA are just 50% ATS in their next game. When they are more than a -12 point favorite they are covering just 46% of all games, so they are actually at a disadvantage here. They have a pair of soft games starting tonight before taking on the Spurs - which will be a huge game for them. New Orleans wins and losses ugly, and last night's game saw just 147 points scored. You can bet that they will bring ugly with them for this one – slow and methodical. Oklahoma City should not be playing with much passion here against a 5-15 team. The last five New Orleans’ opponents average just over 92 points per game. The Hornets are also 12-4 ATS after a loss, and 10-4 to the UNDER in their last 14 vs. a winning team. Take both New Orleans and the UNDER.
