Reasoning: Kevin Durant (ankle) is out so that will put more pressure on Russell Westbrook and company to make up for his 22.4 points per game. Without Durant this season, the Thunder are 6-14. They also are 1-10 when they are outscored in the paint. If the Spurs win this one handily, a real possibility, that will only help the under. Still, with Tony Parker (hamstring) and Manu Ginobili (shoulder) dinged, I think the under is a better play than San Antonio -5.5. Oklahoma City is allowing an NBA-low 95.9 ppg and opponents are shooting just 42.6% against the Thunder (second-best in the league). Oklahoma City doesn't shoot many threes (or shoot them well without Durant), so that shouldn't be a concern.
