On November 1st, the Thunder played the Minnesota Timberwolves and got blown out by 19 points. The only time this season that the Thunder did hit the century mark. <\/p>\n<h3><strong>Check out our in-house Handicapper!!! <a href=\"https:\/\/www.capperspicks.com\/handicappers\/ray-monohan-sports-picks\" target=\"_parent\">Buy Razor Ray&#8217;s NBA Season Package Today!<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>In fact, they didn&#8217;t even come close; They only scored 81 points.<\/p>\n<p>With it being so early in the year, I don&#8217;t expect the Thunder to come out and give a 100% effort. <\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t think they&#8217;ll be all there and it&#8217;s up to Golden State to take advantage of this&#8230;well, pardon the pun, but golden opportunity.<br \/>\n[ad-6571516]<br \/>\n<strong>Golden State Warriors:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Golden State Warriors are a hungry team. The Warriors have been chomping at the bit for a game to prove that they are for real. They really want this game. The Warriors are in a position of wanting to make a statement. <\/p>\n<p>Golden State is 5-3 for the season and really wanting to tell the basketball world that they are a legit team. They get to make that early season statement this Thursday versus the Oklahoma City Thunder.<\/p>\n<p>The ORACLE Arena is a tough place to play and a tough place to win for the opposition. Not only that, but the Warriors have had a day to kick back and relax. They had a day off while the Thunder were busy playing the Clippers, getting on a plane, trying to get some sleep, get off the plane, go to bed, and getting up to get ready to play the Warriors.<\/p>\n<p>On Tuesday, the Warriors played the Detroit Pistons and they came out firing on cylinders. <\/p>\n<p>Granted, it was against the Pistons, but it was the effort they gave. I expect them to give the same amount of effort, maybe even more, in order to make a statement by beating one of the top teams in the Western Conference.<\/p>\n<h3>Danny&#8217;s FREE NBA Pick:<\/h3>\n<p>It&#8217;s a tough task for an NBA team to play back to back nights against a couple of really good teams in the Western Conference. With the Thunder playing a hard fought game against the Los Angeles Clippers the previous night they should be pretty exhausted and might not be able to give a full 4 quarters. <\/p>\n<p>With it being this early in the season and the Warriors an up and coming team, I believe they&#8217;ll want it more than the Thunder. In this spot, at home, the Warriors should be able to capitalize on this opportunity a<\/p>\n<h3>Pick: Golden State Warriors -4.5<\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thunder vs Warriors NBA Lines Thunder vs Warriors NBA Betting Lines The Golden State Warriors are looking to make a statement on their home floor as the Oklahoma City Thunder look to avoid dropping two in a row.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":988,"featured_media":68134,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[12],"tags":[45337,2884,58827,10568,8471,57842,60413,4398,9066,3386],"class_list":["post-68957","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nba","tag-golden-state","tag-golden-state-warriors","tag-okc-thunder-vs-golden-state-warriors","tag-oklahoma-city","tag-oklahoma-city-thunder","tag-oklahoma-city-thunder-vs-golden-state-warriors","tag-oklahoma-city-vs-golden-state","tag-thunder","tag-thunder-vs-warriors","tag-warriors"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/68957","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/988"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=68957"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/68957\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":68965,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/68957\/revisions\/68965"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/68134"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=68957"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=68957"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=68957"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
