Command Analysis
Oklahoma City Thunder
USACurrent form
Thunder continues to dominate the West, building up its advantage over its pursuers. Recent matches have been significant for the team - three confident wins in a row, including the defeat of Phoenix (140:109). Shay Gilges-Alexander played a phenomenal game, scoring 50 points. The support of the fans on the home court also gives additional motivation to the Thunder.
The head coach of the team competently builds tactical schemes, allowing him to use the strengths of his leaders. Right now, Oklahoma is playing for fun, but they are not losing their concentration, realizing that every victory brings them closer to a successful playoff appearance. The next meeting with Toronto looks like another opportunity to extend their winning streak.
Disqualifications and injuries
Ousmane Diegh, Chet Holmgren, Ajay Mitchell and Nikola Topic will not play in the next match due to injuries.
Interesting facts for betting
The Thunder have won four of their last five matches.
Approximate line-up: Williams - Wiggins, KHartenstein - Dort, Gilges-Alexander.
Toronto Raptors
CanadaCurrent form
The Raptors continue to slip, remaining among the outsiders of the Eastern Conference. The team lost the last two matches, losing to New York (115:121) and Memphis (107:138). In both matches, the club looked unstable, making mistakes in defense and not realizing important points in attack.
Despite the efforts of Scotty Barnes, who remains the main star of the team, the overall playing form of the team leaves much to be desired. Toronto is no longer solving serious problems this season, so the team is playing without much motivation. There is a difficult confrontation with Oklahoma ahead, and the Raptors will have to do their best not to become another victim of a powerful opponent.
Disqualifications and injuries
Brandon Ingram and Immanuel Quickley will not play on the floor due to health problems.
Interesting facts for betting
Toronto has not lost on the road for three matches.
Approximate composition: Walter - Barnes, Oliver-Shad, Dick.

1.99Tip and bets
Oklahoma is showing fantastic form, beating strong rivals and retaining first place in the West. The team does not slow down and continues to delight the fans with a beautiful and effective game. At the same time, Toronto is in crisis and is unlikely to be able to do anything against one of the best teams this season. We believe that the Thunder will continue their winning streak and will be able to beat the Raptors, but the visitors will walk away from defeat.
Our forecast is that Toronto will win, taking into account the handicap (+20.5) points for 1.77
Bet on the total
Oklahoma is famous for its aggressive style of play, relying on attacking basketball. Shay Gilges-Alexander scored 50 points in the last match, which indicates the high level of the team's offensive play. Toronto will have to adjust to the opponent's pace and respond with aggressive actions. We assume that the match will be productive, and the overall total will be broken.
Forecast - total more than 227.5 points for 1.66
Betting on statistics
The Thunder are in incredible shape and enjoying their game. The team acts confidently on the home floor and almost always shows a high level of performance. Toronto is having big problems defensively, so it will be extremely difficult to stop the powerful attack of the hosts. We believe that Oklahoma will break through its individual total and delight fans with vibrant basketball again.
Prediction – Oklahoma's individual total is more than 124 points in 1.79
