These are two young teams and the Thunder has made great strides after opening at 2-25 a year ago, they have started this season an impressive 11-9. When you consider the fact that of the nine losses, seven of them have been against teams that are over .500, their prospects here as a live dog are laden with value. The Grizzlies have also turned the corner, but they are off a huge emotional win as they upset the cavaliers in OT their last time out. They will likely be a bit flat for this one, opening the door for a Thunder team that is clearly under the radar to steal the road win. I'll go with Oklahoma City to do just that and play them on the moneyline in this one.
