It appeared that the Oklahoma City Thunder would take a step back when Kevin Durant left for Golden State. If Russell Westbrook has anything to say about it, and he has, that drop is not going to be very far. Westbrook is averaging a triple-double on the season, and so far he looks to be a unanimous MVP candidate. The Thunder is 20-12 on the season, heading to Memphis for this one. The Thunder have had success here as they are 5-3 straight-up in their last eight in Memphis and 5-2-1 ATS. They have pay back on their mind for a crushing loss they suffered here last year 125-88. The Thunder have been the NBA's top revenge team at 162-118-6 ATS (15-7-1 ATS last 23). This is a good spot for the Thunder, so make the play on Oklahoma City.
