Oklahoma City Thunder vs San Antonio Spurs Prediction

The Oklahoma City Thunder just lost to the Spurs last night, and I’m supposed to follow that up and lay double-digit chalk? That’s a no from me, dog. The Portland Trail Blazers have quietly been a competitive team, and they’ve won and covered each of their alt 3 games. The Trail Blazers are 5-3-1 ATS in their last 9 games as a double-digit underdog. I’m just not laying this sort of number with OKC on the end of a back-to-back and coming off an ugly loss. Give me the points.
