Brooklyn Nets vs Oklahoma City Thunder Prediction
The Thunder are going to be big favorites for obvious reasons. Better team, at home, rest advantage. We get it. The Nets stink and are on the end of a back-to-back. Still, as I’ve said before, this isn’t the cash cow OKC squad from the last two seasons. The Thunder are 27-28-1 ATS on the season. The Thunder are 2-9 ATS in their last 11 games as a double-digit favorite. Heck, we’ve seen OKC outright lose six times as a double-digit favorite under the 2026 calendar. These inflated lines are something else. Give me the Nets and the truckload of points.
