The NBA on TNT Thursday Sports Betting Report

February 25, 2015 by Dave Schwab

This Thursday’s TNT double-header in the NBA offers up a possible preview of this season’s NBA Finals followed by a matchup in the Western Conference featuring one resurgent team that might have something to say about that. Be sure to check VietBet for the betting odds for both of these contests as the best sports betting site for US Players.

The Golden State Warriors have set the pace in the West all season long and coming into Thursday night they are a NBA-best 44-10 on the year. The Cleveland Cavaliers are one of the hottest teams in the NBA right now with a 17-2 straight-up record in their last 19 games following Tuesday’s 102-93 victory against Detroit. They covered VietBet’s closing seven-point spread as road favorites in that win to improve to 15-4 against the spread during this same stretch.

Golden State heads into Cleveland for an 8 p.m. (ET) tip with five SU wins in its last six games, but it is just 2-5 ATS in its last seven contests. The total has stayed UNDER in five of its last six games. The Warriors are a solid 20-8 SU on the road this season with a 14-14 mark ATS. The Cavaliers remain the odds-on favorites to win the East this season and they have climbed to fourth-place in the standings during this run at 36-22 SU on the year. They are 21-9 SU at home this season and 16-14 ATS after covering in nine of their last 10 home games.

The Oklahoma City Thunder may be without Kevin Durant, but they continue to roll with a seven-game winning streak both SU and ATS. This past Tuesday, they cruised by Indiana 105-92 to cover as 7.5-point home favorites on VietBet’s closing betting odds for the game. This Thursday in a 10:30 p.m. tip, the Thunder will look to keep things going against Phoenix. The Suns are just 1-8 SU in their last nine games while going a costly 4-9-1 ATS in their last 14 outings. The total has gone OVER in their last four games.

The addition of both DJ Augustin and Enes Kanter before last week’s NBA trade deadline have already provided some big dividends as Oklahoma City continues its climb in the standings at 32-25 SU on the year. However, it is still just 13-17 SU (11-18-1 ATS) on the road this season. The Suns’ current slide has dropped them to 29-28 SU (28-26-3 ATS) on the year with a 16-12 SU (14-14 ATS) record at home.
