(557) Dallas Mavericks at (558) Oklahoma City Thunder
3% Dallas Mavericks +3.5 (-110)
Despite losing 3 of 4 to Oklahoma City during the regular season, the 4th game was on the final day of the regular season when it didn't matter for Dallas, while OKC was battling for playoff position. I respect the Thunder and even without Williamson it was an impressive sweep over the Pelicans. However, the ante gets a little higher as the playoffs move along and I think in game 1 the pressure may get to the Thunder. They are the youngest team in the NBA and going up against a more experienced Maverick team. I am going to take the point with Dallas tonight in what should be a back and forth series.
