OKC Thunder @ SA Spurs Tips

I do prefer the Spurs at home in this series. They have met here four times under the same two coaches, and the Spurs are 3-1 and had a nice 116??'106 win in February.

OKC are the #1 seed (64??'18), won G2 convincingly 122??'113 after losing G1, and at 2.15 represent genuine plus-money value vs. a team they outperformed in G2.

I'll take the small handicap too here. Spurs are 3-1 straight up here when the same two coaches meet and won them all by 6+ points each time.

This is very tight. The series is 1-1. The Spurs are at home, but both teams have major injury uncertainty. Oklahoma's pressure defense and the Spurs' turnover issues make this likely close.
