The early money has pushed this spread 2.5 points from where it opened and I just don't see the oddsmakers being off by that much when predicting the market on this game. I think the Pelicans have been in playoff mode for the last few weeks while the Warriors had their seed clinched weeks ago. I also think it's difficult for the Warriors to cover this number without shooting extremely well from beyond the arch and the Pelicans were ranked 2nd in the league in 3 point defense. They also have arguably the best player in basketball and certainly the best big man in Anthony Davis. Davis is a match up nightmare for the Warriors as he proved by averaging just under 30 points 13 rebounds and 4 blocks vs. the Warriors in the regular season. I think the health and return of Jrue Holliday will make the difference as New Orleans keeps this game close throughout.
