There is a natural tendency to relax and take the foot off the gas a little once you have made it into the playoffs, especially when you have locked up a position that cannot change. Most teams use that opportunity to rest some of their better guys so that the bench players can get some tie in preparation for the playoffs. It can make for some surprising results in the final few games of the regular season, and it’s a chance for NBA bettors to clean up a little by keeping an eye out for teams resting players. The Oklahoma City Thunder are locked into the #3 seed in the Western Conference, and they have lost a few games of late because they have been giving guys a night off. They have a divisional game against the Portland Trail Blazers on Wednesday night, and I will be previewing this one under the assumption that a full squad will be on the court.
