    Oklahoma City/San Antonio Series

    What is the spread gonna be in this series and who are you guys taking?




    I'm thinking around -140 for San Antonio. I'll probably end up backing SA because they have way more experience than OKC, which is huge in NBA playoffs and they owned OKC last 2 matchups

    -140 would be a pretty generous price IMO. Don't think books will make it that low for Spurs. True price should be around -200 to -230, strictly from a match-up standpoint. But they know OKC is gonna be a big public play so they may have to adjust the price accordingly.

    the 2 teams had very similar records and OKC is much more of a media darling. I don't think OKC would be that much of an underdog

    I like Spurs but have you ever backed a team with a + in front of the line?

    Current Pinny line for the Spurs to win the Western Conference

    Yes: -169
    No: +149

    Presumably, that line factors in a strong bias towards a Thunder-Spurs series already. I think the Spurs at this price are a good deal, and Thunder backers are going to be shocked to see how easily the Spurs handle OKC.
