💎OKC THUNDER -2.5 -135 ( 2u )
We have seen this OKC team just play some amazing ball over the first round of the playoffs and have seen this series before already this year! These teams met four times during the regular season with OKC winning three. The last time they met was at the end of the regular season and the Thunder demolished them, winning by almost 50, but neither Doncic nor Irving played in that game! This series is a classic young blood vs experience and I think we will see the value and importance of a teams depth (which OKC 100% has). OKC is a small favorite at home for a reason. In that small favorite role, OKC is 31-5 SU this season and 23-13, so you have to be brave to bet against them. It helps that they are rested too, so let’s back the home team in Game 1 and scream “Thunder Buddies For Life”!
