Why are Warriors Still More Favored to Win the Western Conference than the Kings?

The NBA Playoffs are off to a hot start with upsets in the Western Conference and a Golden State Warriors team that finds itself in unfamiliar territory; a 2-0 series deficit to the Sacramento Kings who are fresh off ending a 17-year playoff drought, the longest across the NBA, NFL, MLB and NHL.

A 2-0 series deficit in the first round is tough to overcome, with those teams historically winning the series just 6.3% of the time. With that in mind, we're going to dive into the futures market for both the Warriors and Kings and find some value!
