The Golden State Warriors played a horrible Game 4, but they come home leading their opening round series vs. San Antonio 3-1. The Spurs have been one of the best home teams in the NBA this year as they are 34-9 SU, and 27-15-1 ATS. However the road has been a nightmare where they are 14-29 SU, and 16-26-1 ATS. The scoring margin at home is +7, on the road -2.4, so they have been nine points per game worse on the road. It has gotten worse down the stretch as San Antonio is 1-14 SU and 4-11 ATS on the road, losing by -8.6 ppg. The Spurs have also lost four straight playoff games on the road. Golden State is also 12-3 ATS in their last 15 playoff games after a loss when playing at home. Golden State's offense makes a lot of players go over the total when they take the court, especially at home, but the opposite has been true as Golden St. is 29-14 to the under in their last 43 playoff games on home hardwood. The possibility of a big blowout here is pretty strong, so most of the defense will be played in the first half. Take Golden State and the first half UNDER.
