The Spurs found a way to win game four and in dominating fashion at home. Going back to Golden State on Tuesday evening, most figured this one to be a lock for the Warriors in a decision game.

The Warriors looked great through the first half and third quarter and in fact they did dominate but not without the Spurs mounting a roaring comeback late in the fourth and nearly pulling of the theft of the season.

Betting Teasers:
Teaser betting is one of the most profitable types of bets in sports. Betting on teasers in basketball is a bit different than in football, as you can buy points ranging between 4, 4.5, or 5 points. What you are doing is making a parlay, with at least two teams and moving their point spread. The idea behind these bets is to make them easier to win, but in return, you have to give up the higher payout. For example, a two-team parlay will pay out around 2.6 to 1, while a two team 4 point teaser is more around 10 to 11. Here is an example of a teaser bet in basketball:
Utah Jazz -4 vs. Oklahoma City +4
So if you were taking the Jazz in this bet, and do a 4 point teaser, you would then be betting on them at a pick. This is a great spot to do a teaser bet in; especially if you feel the Jazz will definitely win the game outright, but may not win by more than 4. Good luck tonight and hopefully break the bookie.
