Game of the Week (NBA) - Schule's Game 4 BLOCKBUSTER
(NBA) Golden State vs. Oklahoma City,
05/24/2016 5:00 PM, Score: 94 - 118
Point Spread: 2.00 | -110.00 Oklahoma City (Home)
Result: Win
Point Spread: 2.00 | -110.00 Oklahoma City (Home)
Result: Win
This is a 10* play on the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Despite the fact that the Thunder lead this series 2-1, and a coming off a dominant win at home in Game 3, they remain the underdog. We've seen the Warriors deal with their fair share of adversity in this post-season, and they've made a habit of playing poorly in the first half on the road. They haven't led at the half in any of their road games so far in the playoffs.
Steph Curry continues to make incredible shots night in and night out, but after dropping 40 points on the Blazers in Game 4, he's been held under 30 points in four straight. He's admitted his knee is still not 100%, and he injured his elbow late in Game 2. You could see his elbow was quite swollen while he was sitting on the bench in the third quarter, and the injury was on his shooting arm.
When the Warriors visited Oklahoma City in the regular season, they went to halftime trailing 57-46. They went on to win that game in overtime 121-118. These come-from-behind wins are so common for the Warriors, there really isn't a lot of urgency for them to try to win the game in the first half. That's not the case for the Thunder, who really need to take advantage of the energy from the home crowd. A fast start is crucial for Oklahoma City.
Take OKC.
