Dallas at Golden State

Premium Pick

Dallas is rested with two full days off. After a victory over the Kings, the Mavs came very close to knocking off the Clippers the last game as a +6 dog. The Mavericks are on an 8-2 spread run on the road, as well as 14-6-1 ATS against a team with a winning record. They are a big dog to a slumping Golden State squad that is working on just one day of rest. The mighty Warriors are on a 2-7 spread run, and even the coach admitted the team looks low on gas. Golden State has lost three of the last four games, including Tuesday's 125-105 loss to Oklahoma City with 25 turnovers. They were a 10-point home favorite that game. The previous outing, they were -5.5 road chalk at Denver and lost, 115-108. And just four games ago they were 8-point favorites over Utah and got blown out, 129-99. While that might worry most coaches, the Warriors still have the best record in the league with little urgency to turn things around with the All-Star break approaching. The Warriors are 18-38 ATS versus a team with a winning percentage below .400, so back the dog to cover and win the game. Play Dallas with the points and on the moneyline.
