Oklahoma City +12.5 at Philadelphia ($1.89)
This is a very nice spot for Oklahoma City, who meet a Philadelphia team very much in transition after trading Ben Simmons and acquiring James Harden. That should have a major bump but they do look vulnerable here. The Thunder have covered 17 of 24 as a road underdog and 12 of 15 against winning teams. The Sixers have covered just 1 of 6 as a home favourite.

Denver ($2.60) at Boston
This is a real vulnerable spot for Boston so happy to take Denver at a big price. The market overrates the Celtics off a win of more than 10 points or scoring 125-plus with cover records of 8-23 and 1-8 respectively. The Nuggets clearly have plenty of talent and have won two of their last three as an underdog.

Under 224.5 Charlotte at Detroit ($1.90)
This is a major under spot for both teams with this line far too big. The under is an insane 24-4 when Detroit are off conceding 125 or more points, as they did against Memphis yesterday. The under is 54-25 when the Pistons are on a back-to-back. The under has hit in 18 of 24 Charlotte games while it has hit in 9 of 11 when they play a losing team.
