OKC are one of the best covering teams that Mack has cashed with for the second season straight. They are 22-8-1 ATS this season and they have been at home for four of their last five games now, this being their second back to back home game, so they have no travel and have strung up some wins in the last few weeks against top teams in the league. This is more than 2 scores that the oddsmakers are giving bettors so this is where the value lies with the home team. Boston has been great but they have been hit or miss with blowout wins on the road recently and they have struggled in their last few games with the weaker teams in the league in this last stretch in getting their wins, so taking OKC feels like a strong spot for them they will be extremely competitive in this spot. This is a statement game for both.
