Mavericks at Thunder – NBA Picks, February 16, 2010: The Dallas Mavericks (32-20) head north up I-35 to Oklahoma City to take on the Thunder (30-21) as NBA regular season play resumes Tuesday night (8:05 pm Eastern). One difference fans will see is the addition of Caron Butler and Brendon Haywood, acquired from the Wizards prior to the All-Star game. Dallas will welcome the new additions, especially those of Butler, a player who can put points on the board.
Prior to the All-Star break, the Thunder were on a roll winning six straight games and covering against the spread in five of them. Dallas has been terrible since the new year arrived having lost 15 of their last 20 games and have failed to cover the betting spread in nine of their last 11.
In spite of the Maverick recent losing trends, public gamblers still stupport them. For today's game 98 per cent of early moneyline bets are on the Mavericks while 52 per cent back the Mavs ATS. The OVER 195 posted total is supported by 91 percent of gamblers.
NBA Predictions: The Mavericks have some fresh talent arriving to help but it will take a few days for Caron Butler to work into the Mavs scheme. We like the Thunder to win and cover Tuesday night.
