The departure of Kevin Durant has left a void, and the Tunder have attempted fill it with Russell Westbrook who is putting up numbers that have not occurred in this league since perhaps Oscar Robertson. Westbrook averages a triple-double, but despite of all his heroics the Thunder are just 15-11 with a losing spread record on the season. They are also not playing well at 1-3 in their last four, failing to cover any of them. They have also been out-scored by 39 points in the four games. Phoenix creeps in at just 8-18 on the season. The Suns lost eight games by more than 7 points by Thanksgiving, but have since been a lot more competitve, and have just 3 losses by more than 7. Since Coach Watson took over the Suns, his team has been 21-6 ATS if they failed to cover their last game. Make the play on Phoenix.
