Prediction
Kings 109, Warriors 103
Moneyline (ML)
The KINGS (-154) are worth a small-unit bet if you’re a cautious player who just likes to pick winners straight up. For my liking, it’s above -160 or -170, which is about the lowest I like to go on a moneyline play.
Line/Against the Spread (ATS)
The KINGS (-3.5, -106) are also worth a small-unit wager laying the points, although I’d feel a lot more comfortable if, for one, the line were 2.5 instead of three, and I didn’t just watch the Kings totally implode against the New York Knicks last time out.
The good news is the Knicks also beat the Warriors (+3.5, -115), and Golden State is a mishmash unit with the worst record in the NBA. How the mighty have fallen.
Over/Under (O/U)
PASS. There aren’t a lot of great parts on the Warriors, but they still have the likes of Marquese Chriss posting double-doubles lately, while Paschall has been good when he is on the floor. The Kings have some bright young scorers, too. If there is a lean, it’s slightly to the over (210.5, -115), but I’ll pass for now.
