NBA Basketball Picks: Oklahoma City vs. Charlotte: December 3rd 2008

Oklahoma City Thunder vs. Charlotte Bobcats December 3rd, 2008 7:00PM
The Thunder, who come in well-rested, have been playing much better since the coaching change and are 4-1 ATS their last five games. They won their last game (at Memphis) outright and that followed a 2-point loss at Minnesota. Charlotte has also been playing relatively well lately. That being said, this is a lot of points for a team like the Bobcats to be laying.

The Bobcats have just six wins in 17 games overall. Four of those wins came by nine points or less and only one of them came by more than 10 points. Note that Charlotte is just 1-3 ATS the last four times it was listed as a home favorite in the -6.5 to -9 range. While they lost the last meeting by three points, the Sonics were 5-3 all-time vs. the Bobcats. I expect the Thunder to give the Bobcats all they can handle again this evening.
