The Thunder are coming into this game with a 2-0 lead in the series and they were dominant in game 2. They struggled more in game 1 as the Pelicans came out strong and really caught the Thunder offguard, but they showed why they are the number 1 seed in the West as they still found a way to win that game. They followed it up with a much better performance as well as they beat the Pelicans in game 2 by a score of 124-92. The Thunder have not been bad on the road this season either as they are 24-17 on the road. They are also going up against a Pelicans team that has been much better on the road this season, only 21-19 at home. The Pelicans have done well while missing Zion but the Thunder simply have too much talent for them to handle without Zion. Even with Zion playing, the Pelicans would still struggle against this Thunder team. The Thunder actually won the last meeting against the Pelicans in New Orleans, beating them 119-112 at the end of March. The Pelicans have also been awful this season when coming back from a road trip, losing their last 3 straight home games when playing at home right after multiple games on the road. The Thunder are going to cover the spread in this game.
