Oklahoma City Thunder Form
Oklahoma City enter this matchup with the opportunity to sweep New Orleans after a big Game 3 victory.
The Thunder put together a 57-25 record during the regular season and that was enough to secure top spot in the Western Conference.
With that came home court advantage for the playoffs, which was sealed by them winning their final four games on the regular season schedule.
Oklahoma City kept that win streak going in their first two playoff games, starting with a 94-92 win at home to New Orleans.
The Thunder then stormed to a 124-92 victory over the Pelicans, before heading out on the road to take the third game of the series, 106-85.
New Orleans Pelicans Form
New Orleans find themselves in a 'win or bust' situation the rest of the way, having gone 3-0 down in the series over the weekend.
The Pelicans finished the regular season with a 49-33 record, and that meant they needed the Play-In Tournament to secure a playoff place.
They then bounced back from a 110-106 defeat to the Los Angeles Lakers by winning their second Play-In game against Sacramento, 105-98.
New Orleans almost backed that up with a surprise road win in the first road game, only to fall short in a 94-92 defeat at Oklahoma City.
The Pelicans failed to lay a glove on the Thunder in the second meeting, losing 124-92, and they failed to make home court advantage count in Game 3 as they were beaten 106-85.
Verdict
It is tough to suggest anything other than backing Oklahoma City to win and cover.
The Thunder have had New Orleans' number all season and their road record against the Pelicans is flawless.
