Odds makers opened this game lower than the previous 4 but that is to be expected with the previous 3 of 4 going UNDER the Total, both times on this court, and those games here being the lowest of the series. Portland won both game here in their city because they played the kind of game they like to play. I say this often but teams at their home venue control the tempo better and the Blazers were able to mostly do that in those games. OKC does like to push the pace and they will do so given the chance tonight. But they also have the #5 Defense in the NBA. Down 3-1 we can expect them to put out an all D EFFORT. So we will play this one again and hope that we don't see an 80 Point Quarter like we saw in the game 3. UNDER is 7-3 last 10 played Head to Head, and 5-1 UNDER last 6 on this court. Sure we would have liked to get the open of 220 but it was only available for a short time. I don't have a clear idea where this number goes from here during the betting cycle and it would easily go upward. But I'getting this one now and you can to at your best number..
Mid Morning Note: This number has jumped to as high as 221 so better numbers for those betting later..
