Series History

The Thunder went 3-1 against the Warriors last season (1-1 at home, 2-0 on the road).

Why the Thunder Will NOT Cover (-6.5)

I keep expecting OKC to be in closer games, but aside from the Denver game, they keep winning by double digits. Golden State is coming off an embarrassing blowout loss to Cleveland, so I expect they will be have a renewed energy. This one is going to be a fourth quarter battle.

Why the Game Will Hit the Over (228.5)

Golden State has one of the top offenses in the league, and both the Thunder and the Warriors have really good defenses. I think OKC wins, but I also think the Warriors put up some points, so I’m taking the over on the point total.
