Warriors Favorites In Must Win Game 5

The Warriors favorites should not be suprising for a team that holds the most regular season wins record, but considering that the Oklahoma City Thunder are up in this series 3-1 and Golden State is now in a must win situation, one would expect the books to lean closer to OKC. However, that is not the case.

The Warriors are -7.5-point favorites tonight in Game 5 of this series. This is a game that the Warriors must win if they are to continue their playoff run and eventual cap off their record-setting season with a championship, as anything less than the NBA title would be considered a disappoint for this team.

Bettors laying money on OKC have found themselves at the window cashing out more often than not. In their series with the Spurs, the Thunder were 4-1 straight up and ATS in the last five games of that series.

Game 2 was dominated by the Warriors who bounced back big with a 118-91 victory. The Warriors are favorites in the series overall with a moneyline of -400. The Thunder have a price set at +300.

Golden State struggled keeping Stephen Curry healthy in their series with Portland but still managed to move onto the Conference Finals in just five games. They will be looking for a big win tonight to go up in the series.

The total is set at 220 points. Game 1’s combined score was 210 points while Game 2 hit 209 points, so the series has trended toward the UNDER.
