Golden State Warriors at Oklahoma City Thunder Pick
This market opened at a small allotment of points being spotted to the Warriors. This is the first time in a very long time we have seen the defending champs pitched as a pooch and yet the public is all the more enamored by the Thunder. Oklahoma City as mentioned has won their last four at the Chesapeake Energy Arena, Golden State and San Antonio being the assailed. Given their recent successes at home, an overreaction on the Thunder is highly plausible. The market initially may have been designed to lure Warriors backers but instead a steady stream of action has pushed this line up by a full point further in favor of the Thunder. Let us reiterate the fact that we get the chance to take back a defending NBA champion with a two-time MVP and a record-setting regular season win total with points. The upside of this is astronomical. Oklahoma City is formidable at home and the allure is all the more captivating with their recent dominance of the West's best squads. However, we have seen the Thunder choke when the spotlights were on them in the past. Now, all eyes are on OKC as they have a chance to dethrone the defending champs and we have to speculate now if the pressure will begin to mount on the Oklahoma City ranks. As for Golden State, this team has flourished in hostile venues all year and they found ways to win almost always, thus this market compels us all the more to fade the public and lean on the Warriors with the points.
Free Pick:
Golden State +2.5
