Oklahoma City Thunder at Denver Nuggets Preview & Picks
Denver are tipped to cover as a betting underdog on their home court.

- Denver Nuggets won 113-104 in overtime when the two teams last met on May 9
Oklahoma City Thunder Form
Oklahoma City go into their second road game of the series looking to knot it up at 2-2 after falling behind again in Game 3.
The Thunder came into this home court advantage, but threatened to blow that in the very first game as they were beaten 121-119 by Denver.
They responded immediately with a record-setting 149-106 victory in Game 2, only to fall behind in the series once again as they lost 113-104 in overtime in Denver on Friday.
Oklahoma City put together a league-best a 68-14 record to finish top of the Western Conference and book their place in the postseason.
The Thunder then continued that dominance in the first round of the playoffs as they beat Memphis 131-80 and 118-99 at home, and 114-108 and 117-115 on the road.
Denver Nuggets Form
Denver enter this matchup knowing that a win here will give them the chance to clinch in Oklahoma City, or at the very least guarantee one more home game.
The Nuggets enjoyed the perfect start to the series as they took down the Thunder, 121-119 in Game 1, only to then suffer a 149-106 blowout loss on Wednesday night.
They rebounded in Game 3 though, restoring their series lead with a 113-104 victory in overtime.
Denver claimed their place in the playoffs with a 50-32 record, but found themselves behind early in the first round of the playoffs as they followed a 112-110 overtime win over LA with 105-102 and 117-83 defeats.
The Nuggets rallied with 101-99 and 131-115 wins over the Clippers, and then bounced back from a 111-105 defeat with a series-clinching 120-101 victory in Game 7.
Verdict
Denver remain the underdogs on their home court, but they have repeatedly delivered as a spread bet in this position.
Oklahoma City, on the other hand, are yet to cover on the road since the playoffs started, so give us the Nuggets and the free buckets.
