It is officially 24 hours before tip off on Sunday between the Memphis Grizzilies and Oklahoma City Thunder. After spending most of last night reviewing the games for Sunday, one game provides an easy winner. Close to 7 hours of research has led me to arrive at Sunday's NO BRAINER LOCK and clear winner...
OKLAHOMA CITY THUNDER -6.5$200
This one is a sure winner. I'm as determined as ever to get a win!
Stay tuned for an exclusive write-up.
Thank you
Seaweed

It's game day folks! Time to start the week of with a bang! I'm really excited for today's game 7 because i haven't felt this confident in a whille. Enough chatter, i know you Seaweeder's want the nitty gritty details for today's Oklahoma City Thunder and Memphis Grizzilies match-up.
Before i begin explaining why Oklahoma WILL cover today's spread of -6.5, you should all already be aware of these obvious facts.
*No team has won by less than 8 points in this series ** Memphis has never won back to back games in this series *** OKC is 20-6 in their last home games. **** Neither Memphis or Oklahoma City has ever played in a Game 7 playoff match-up.
Firstly, one must recognize the importance of this game from not only the standpoint of advancing to the conference finals, but also the oppurtunity it brings for Kevin Durant-a player who is yet to suficiently establish himself as one who is able to lead his team through the playoffs. We all know of Kevin Durant's poor shooting preformance in Game 6 where he went 3-14 from the field. However, despite this uncharacteristic preformance from KD, he has proven his ability to bounce back following weak shooting preformances throughout the year. On average, when Durant has shot under 40% or had a game with under 20 points, he has responded strongly the next game averaging 26.4 points. The basketball world is now waiting with bated breath to see if OKC's young star Kevin Durant will be able to seize the moment, or shrink under the magnitude of the spotlight. Clearly, if Thunder plan on advancing, Durant realizes he must come out strong. Look for Durant to have an agressive and impressive preformance.
Next, we must direct out attention to another factor suggesting an easy cover by OKC. This is of course having home court advantage. Home court advantage is not only crucial during the playoffs, but for game 7's it plays a major role in contributing to the outome of the game, especially with a loud crowd in Oklahoma. Since the inception of the NBA, 106 Game 7's have been played. Out of these, only 21 Game 7's have been won by a road team. For those not so bright in the math department, that's only a 19% chance for a road team to win. Not only will OKC win, but they will win big covering the spread and pocketing our Seaweeder's with money.
Another important factor which will have an influence in this game is the referee's. The ref's almost always favour the calls for the home team, and this will be apparent once Westbrook and Durant start slashing to the bucket and start picking up fouls. This translates to the importance of free throws where OKC are shooting 75% from the chairty stripe. The referee's for Sunday's match-up will be Scott Foster, Marc Davis, Ron Garretson, and David Jones. The NBA' selection of these referee's couldn't be more lousy from a neutral standpoint, but from a betting perspective, all signs point to favouritism for OKC. When one of these ref's have officiated a play-off match-up, the home team has come out a staggering 76% of the time, covering the spread 69% of the time. In addition, these refs have a good reputation for not being hesitant on blowing their whistle and calling fouls. For those who trust these ref's to officiate fairly, well think again Seaweeder's. These ref's have a history of fraud. One can look at Ron Garetson's father Darell Garretson who pleaded guily to fraud charges backin 2000 where he was sentenced to home probation. Referee David Jones isn't any better either as he was involved in training disgraced referee Tim Donaghy. Tim Donaghy also made repeated phone calls to Scott Fisher back in 2006 when he was providing inside informatioon to professional gamblers according to court documents obtained from FOX News. Clearly, the referee's will have an influence, probably unfair, but being on the right side of the bias for OKC will stop my Seaweeder's and I from complaining. Being on the right side of the refs is a factor many forget to incorporate into their handicapping, but not Seaweed. I won't omit such crucial information.
These are only a couple important parts for today's match up. I will bring all information to my Seaweeder's as soon as it gets to me.
Thank you
Seaweed.
