Oklahoma City can play any style, up-tempo with all their young legs, or slow paced as we saw in a 98-93 loss at the Heat and a 94-88 defeat at home to Memphis. For this game, Toronto comes to town with the No. 26 ranked offense in the NBA, so they will bring a slow-paced style. The Raptors are off an 84-80 home loss to Cleveland, scoring 42 first half points and shooting 42.5% for the game. The slow pace has worked, however, winning three of the last four games while allowing 42, 46, and 42 first half points in three of them. Oklahoma City hasn't been clicking offensively, losing three straight, scoring 41, 49 and 44 first half points. Look for the visitors to slow the pace down in the first half, which is the only hope they have. Take the first half UNDER.
