However, the Warriors have underachieved all year, and they’re not profitable with a 14-16 ATS record. The Warriors are 2-4 ATS in their last 6 games when a favorite of 5 or more points, and 2 of those games were outright losses. The Mavs have covered 7 of the last 10 games against the Warriors. Since November 29, the Mavericks are 5-1 SU and ATS when an underdog of 5 or more points. Give me the free buckets with the Mavericks on the road.
