It is the second meeting between OKC and Pelicans, and for the first time this season I will try a bet only on the first half.
Thunder returns to the fans after the Colorado last night’s game, a very physical one that has exhausted the players in Oklahoma. A match with the Pelicans is never easy in a back-to-back, even if the opponent seems more than approachable. Westbrook said the team feels weak after Robertson’s injury, but he’s trying to set himself up first from a defensive point of view.
New Orleans has big problems, and this was seen in the first matches after DeMarcus Cousins’s injury. Pelicans have lost their home games in front of L.A. Clippers and Sacramento Kings. The second game was really embarrassing, the “pelicans” being unrecognizable in the second part. That’s what attracted me to the tip of today, Pelicans taking a break in each of the two lost games. And today they have a good chance of losing the match, but I see them holding OKC under “double digits”.
Pont: New Orleans Pelicans +10.5 points @ 1.50
