Stephen Curry Still Hasn’t Gotten Over Game 7 Loss

The Golden State Warriors blew a 3-1 series lead in the NBA Finals to the Cleveland Cavaliers this past June and point guard Stephen Curry still has not recovered from the Game 7 loss at home.

The Golden State Warriors appeared primed to complete the greatest regular season in National Basketball Association history with a second straight title in June until it all came crashing down.

The day after Kevin Durant signed with the Warriors, the SuperBook opened the over/under on the Warriors win total at 68.5 – and it’s barely dipped.

“Basically, the sharps are liking the under and the public is liking the over”, Sherman said.

Let’s just say that the Warriors have the highest expected wins.

“It’s really an outlier for the Warriors to be as separated as they are”, Sherman told ESPN. Several teams that missed the playoffs last season are projected to make significant improvements. That might have cost them a championship last season and they are not going to do that again. The low water mark this season belongs to the depleted Brooklyn Nets at 20.5. Here’s the full list of this year’s O/U win totals, for reference. The Utah Jazz’s win total opened at 47.5, the third highest in the Western Conference. Sherman said Tuesday that nearly four times as much money had been bet on the Warriors as on any other team. Everyone thought it was a sure thing that the Warriors were going to repeat as champions, especially when they went up three-games-to-one on the Cavs in the Finals.
