With only one win in their last 19 games, the Thunder have been awful for the last month.
The Warriors are a solid 19-11 at home.
With the odds what they are, it doesn’t make sense to bet the money line. The Thunder are a terrible bet to win and the Warriors offer no value at all, while having to wager 10 times what you can win.
