Sacramento at Oklahoma City

Two teams that combined to win just 40 games a year ago will open the season with each other trying to make a turnaround. It is hard to justify this line to be this chalky, especially out of the gate, with a team that won just six more games than the opponent here and 23 overall. The Thunder managed just 16 home wins a year ago and when you consider the fact that half of those would not have covered this number, that leaves just eight times they played well enough to cover this number in 41 tries at home. Last year these teams met three times and every game was a dog fight with no single game decided by more than four points. One went to Sacramento, as the Thunder claimed wins by a single point and three points. This one figures to be close as both teams sniff a win to get out of the gate in the win column, so I'll grab the points here.
