The Oklahoma City Thunder can taste the Playoffs, but now it's all about positioning as they are currently in a threeway tie for the No. 5 spot in the West while just one game ahead of the ninth-place Denver Nuggets with two games left in the regular season.

All the early betting action was coming in on OKC as a -2.5 favorite despite the obvious 2-point overlay.  This makes sense: Miami has nothing more to play for (they've already secured their spot in the weaker East), the Thunder have owned the series of late, and Oklahoma City is just the better team here, or so it seems. 

One problem: They are 1-7 Against The Spread off an upset.  That big victory came against the league leading Houston Rockets Saturday night.

The Heat have won six of their last ten games.  Two of the four losses occurred in overtime.

Miami should come to play here.
