Best Games to Bet on Today: San Antonio Spurs vs. Oklahoma City Thunder & Nashville Predators vs. San Jose Sharks – May 12, 2016

Another intriguing finish is in store for us when the San Antonio Spurs and Oklahoma City Thunder lock horns for Game 6 at Chesapeake Energy Arena. A win for the Thunder would allow them to move onto the Western Conference finals. Can they finally do so, or will the Spurs force a Game 7?

Speaking of which, the Nashville Predators and San Jose Sharks will faceoff against each other for one last time in a sudden-death Game 7 of their own at the SAP Center. Which of these two clubs will move on to the Western Conference Finals for a best-of-seven series date with the St. Louis Blues?

Russell Westbrook just reminded the world again why Kevin Durant isn’t the only legitimate superstar in Oklahoma City. The league’s most explosive point guard erupted for 35 points, 11 rebounds and nine assists in Game 5 to give the Thunder a 3-2 advantage in their series against San Antonio. Westbrook along with Durant, who contributed 23 points in the same game, will look to close it out tonight in Game 6 at their very own home floor.

OKC is 3-2 SU and 2-3 ATS in its last five games at Chesapeake Energy Arena. San Antonio, on the other hand, is 4-1 SU and 3-2 ATS in its past five road games.

Nashville successfully forced a Game 7 thanks to Viktor Arvidsson’s goal during the overtime period of Game 6. That was his first ever playoff goal, and it couldn’t have come at a better time. Now the Predators look to finally book a ticket to the conference finals, and you can expect the pair of Colin Wilson and Roman Josi, who have both combined for 22 points (six goals and 16 helpers) this postseason, to continue playing aggressively against a San Jose team that’s 4-1 SU in its last five home games. The Preds, though, have lost four of their last five road games.
