Vegas Play of the Day: Golden State Warriors at New Orleans Pelicans

Thu, Apr 23, 2015 (3 p.m.)

Here’s the latest installment of the Play of the Day, which uses odds from the South Point. Our three sports writers started with a $10,000 bankroll — fictional, of course.

New Orleans Pelicans plus-5 vs. Golden State Warriors: $330 to win $300

The Warriors are well on their way to a series victory with a 2-0 lead heading to New Orleans. And while I think they’ll extend that to 3-0 tonight, I’m going with the Pelicans to keep this within five.

In its last eight games, Golden State is 1-7 ATS and despite their 5-1 record against New Orleans this season, the Warriors are only 2-4 ATS in those games. They’re clearly the better team, but that doesn’t mean they’re always able to blow out the opponent.

Standings: Keefer (76-73-2, $11,087), Bern (74-66-1, $10,662), Brewer (67-80-3, $2,745)
