The over is 9-4 in Mavericks last 13 road games. The over is 7-1-1 in Warriors last 9 Thursday games. The over is 14-6 in the last 20 meetings.
The Golden State Warriors are more than capable of blowing the doors off here at home, and they're an experienced team that knows it's important not to allow a series to drag out. However, outside of game 1, the Mavs have been in the thick of every game in this series, and they still have the best player in the series which gives them a punchers chance. It really comes down to if the Dallas Mavericks role players can knockdown the open shots similar to how they did in their game 5 victory and part of their game 2 loss that should have been a win. The Warriors probably win this game, but the Mavs can do enough to make it competitive. I'll grab the points.
