Golden State Warriors vs Dallas Mavericks Prediction
I'm still iffy on the Golden State Warriors given their underachieving, but they're 2-0 SU and ATS with the addition of Jimmy Butler, and they're getting healthier. The Dallas Mavericks are coming off a heartbreaking loss to the Kings, and they're as banged up as any team in the league. With so many injuries, mainly to their bigs, I'm honestly surprised the Mavs aren't bigger dogs in this spot. Also, it's toxic playing in Dallas, as fans are still livid with the Luka trade and some were ejected in the game against the Kings. The Mavs franchise from top to bottom right now just appears to be a disaster. This is a spot the Warriors should take advantage of. I'll lay the points with the Warriors.
