OKC Thunder v Houston Rockets Prediction

OKC Thunder v Houston Rockets

In this NBA clash, OKC Thunder will host the Houston Rockets. Let’s take a look at the match preview as we try to provide the game-winner, Asian handicap, and over/under margins - best betting tips for this tie. 

Thunder have conceded an incredible 283 points in the previous two games against the Brooklyn Nets and rivals in this match. That's 141.5 points per game on average. It is known from before that this is one of the weakest teams in the Western Conference, but in the whole league, however, these are quite high numbers. I expect Thunder to slow down the game's pace a bit in this match because otherwise, they will have another defensive debacle.

Houston is in an excellent series of 6 consecutive victories. The guard duo Wall-Oladipo seems to be slowly fitting in. These are two top players, and I believe they will be able to reach their maximum. Houston had scored 136 points in the previous match against Thunder. This may be another efficient evening.

I like the way Houston plays. Under the hoop, they have a great Christian Wood centre that instils confidence in other players. Thunder with many injured players and I don't believe I can get a good result here. I expect another game with many points and the Rockets' victory should not be missed. This is certainly for a slightly higher stake. 7th win in a row should not be a problem at all for them at this moment.
