What the heck was that?
Trailing the Golden State Warriors by a 3-1 margin in their NBA playoff series, the Memphis Grizzlies went bonkers in Wednesday’s Game 5, routing Steph Curry and company, 134-95, despite closing as 4.5-point underdogs.
The series now transitions to San Francisco for Friday night’s Game 6 meeting, in which the Warriors are 8.5-point favorites as of the time of writing.
While many still believe it’s unlikely that Memphis can come all the way back, the key question for bettors is how Game 6 will play out.
So, is backing Memphis to keep it close the smartest way to bet Grizzlies vs. Warriors? Can Golden State roar back to take Game 6 — and the series — in a blowout?
Or should savvy bettors bypass the spread altogether and be looking at the Grizzlies vs. Warriors over/under instead?
When it comes to the market’s sharpest bettors, that answer in clear.
Let’s take a look.
NBA Pick: Grizzlies vs. Warriors
The Grizzlies vs. Warriors Game 6 total opened at 219.5 at BetMGM and sharp bettors were quick to pounce on the under.
Action Labs Bet Signals are reporting four separate instances of smart money coming in on this under, so it’s no surprise to see oddsmakers adjusting the total down a consensus line of 217.5 as of the time of writing.
Value-minded bettors can lock in an even better price for this game simply by shopping for the best line before getting down.
For example, the Action Network’s NBA Live Odds Page is showing that most shops are sitting at 217.5. However, both PointsBet and FanDuel are still hanging 218 for those willing to do an extra few seconds of work before clicking submit on their bets.
