Golden State +100 over Sacramento

3:30 PM EST. Game 7's hold a special place in the annals of basketball history. The pressure, intensity, and win-or-go-home nature of these matchups often lead to memorable performances and unforgettable moments. Thus far in this series, there have been close games, titanic shifts in momentum, and a level of competitiveness from the Kings that was not predicted by the oddsmakers when this series started. For some perspective, before the playoffs, the Warriors were 9-1 to win the NBA championship, and the third-seeded Kings were 66-1. While much has changed since then, coming into this game tonight, the Dubs are up to 10-1, while SacTown is down to 28-1. The Kings are still a long shot, but they are being given much more respect from the market after a solid showing through six games.

As for tonight, the market has taken a stand in this game, moving the Kings from a small home underdog to now being the betting favorite. Recent results loom large here after the Kings whacked the Warriors 118-99 in San Francisco on Friday night. The Warriors' poor road record cannot be overlooked here either, as it has great influence as well. That said, Game 7 brings a different level of intensity and pressure. It's worth noting that the Warriors have experienced success on the road during the playoffs before, and they have faced the pressure that comes with a Game 7, while the Kings have not. The oddsmakers got it right when they made the Dubs the chalk, and that is precisely how we are going to play this one: Golden State outright.
