New Orleans Pelicans vs Oklahoma City Thunder Prediction: Will the Thunder succeed in the third game?

Prediction for the NBA match which will take place on April 27. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

New Orleans Pelicans

The Pelicans also lack playoff experience. In fact, the only New Orleans player who can be called truly experienced is C.J. McCollum. But his efforts were not enough, and after giving Oklahoma fierce resistance in the first game, the team lost the second game without a fight—92:124.

Oklahoma City Thunder

The Thunder did not relax throughout the regular season, and the efforts of the Oklahoma team were rewarded. They got perhaps the weakest opponent from the play-in. Obviously, it would have been much more difficult against the Los Angeles Lakers, Sacramento, or Golden State than against New Orleans, which also lost Zion Williamson to injury.

Expert Betting Tips

Oklahoma showed at the start of the series with New Orleans that they are superior to their opponent in everything. The Pelicans could have an advantage under the basket, but without Zion Williamson, Willie Green's team is also deprived of that. The real playoffs for Oklahoma will start in the second round, where the Thunder will likely face the Los Angeles Clippers.
