Spurs Moneyline (-200)
It’s officially do-or-die time for the Spurs as they look to make their first successful defence of home court in the NBA Finals. While Games 1 & 2 didn’t go their way, look for the young bucks of the Spurs to extend the series in Game 5, taking the win on the moneyline.
While it’s never a good look to blow a fourth-quarter lead, it’s another thing to blow a 29-point lead in historic fashion. Even though the Spurs’ collapse in Game 4 will live in infamy in San Antonio for years to come, there’s still plenty of positives to take away from that game, the main one being, that once again the Spurs held a double-digit lead in the second half.
The Spurs have notably struggled to close out games, but there’s no doubt that they have what it takes to get the better of the Knicks. With their home crowd set to bring the energy, look for the Spurs to feed off of this as they exorcise their demons from Game 4, putting forth a stellar effort at home, and find a way to prevent the Knicks from clawing their way back into the game in order to send the series back to MSG.
At -200, there’s solid value on the Spurs to defend home turf, extending the NBA Finals, and keeping their title aspirations alive while netting you a win on your NBA bet slip.
