Dallas Mavericks vs. Oklahoma City Thunder Game 1 Prediction

This Mavs team has what it takes to win a Championship.

Dallas currently has the fifth-best odds of winning the finals (+950).

Luka Doncic was the star of round one. Doncic led the team with 29.8 points per game, 8.8 rebounds and 9.5 assists.

The Thunder represent the best record in the West.

OKC is one of the youngest basketball teams, making what they did this season even more impressive.

Round one was a piece of cake for the Thunder as they swept the New Orleans Pelicans.

The Thunder are +850 to win the finals, which is the third-best odds.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander led the team in round one with 30.1 points and 5.0 assists.

Dallas Mavericks vs. Oklahoma City Thunder Game 1 Pick

The Thunder are well-rested and will be ready to go tonight.

This young OKC team proved that the moment was not too big in round one.

I see this as a back-and-forth series dominated by the home team.

OKC has gone 35-8 on their home floor this year.

The Thunder matchup well, with the Mavs going 3-1 in the regular season series.
