What the heck was that?
Trailing the Golden State Warriors by a 3-1 margin in their NBA playoff series, the Memphis Grizzlies went bonkers in Wednesday's Game 5, routing Steph Curry and company, 134-95, despite closing as 4.5-point underdogs.
The series now transitions to San Francisco for Friday night's Game 6 meeting, in which the Warriors are 8.5-point favorites as of the time of writing.
While many still believe it's unlikely that Memphis can come all the way back, the key question for bettors is how Game 6 will play out.
So, is backing Memphis to keep it close the smartest way to bet Grizzlies vs. Warriors? Can Golden State roar back to take Game 6 — and the series — in a blowout?
Or should savvy bettors bypass the spread altogether and be looking at the Grizzlies vs. Warriors over/under instead?
When it comes to the market's sharpest bettors, that answer in clear.
Let's take a look.
