Two teams that were expected to be major contenders in the West this season will face off here on Friday night in Texas. This is a game that could end up having huge implications on the playoff race coming down the final stretch of the season. As the Golden State Warriors will face off with the Dallas Mavericks here in this one on Friday night. With both teams looking to pick up a crucial victory heading into the final few weeks of the regular season. Both of these teams come into this game, sitting in the middle of the pack of the standings, and both of them could certainly use a victory to give them as much momentum as possible heading into the postseason. There should be a solid game, as some of the biggest stars in the NBA get set to face off here in this one.
It has been a less than impressive season for Golden State. However, they have still managed to put themselves in a position to make the playoffs this year. They have had plenty of struggles and off the court issues throughout the year and they will look to put all of that to the side and make a run at the postseason late in the year over the next few weeks. This feels like a must win game for Golden State if they want to remain firmly in a position to make the playoffs this season. Steph Curry and Klay Thompson will look to lead this team to a much-needed victory in Dallas here on Friday night.
Golden State comes into this game only eight games above .500 heading into their six seven games of the season. As they have recorded 42 victories through their first 76 games of the year. This is perhaps their biggest game to date this season and it is a much-needed 43rd victory that they will try and earn against Dallas. They have very much improved team on the road this season. Which has led to plenty of success for Golden State and that is something they will need to maintain throughout this game as well if they want to continue being successful heading into the final stretch of the season.

Despite the amount of star power that Dallas has on their roster with Luka and Kyrie Irving, they have been a little underwhelming this season. They will look to pick up a solid much-needed victory here on Friday night at home as they look to grab a win against Golden State heading into the final couple weeks of the regular season. They have been relatively strong at home this season, and they will look to maintain that narrative with another solid performance to open up the weekend. Dallas comes into this game sitting in the middle of the pack of the standings in the conference with 46 victories through their first 76 games of the season.
They will look to grab their 47th one of the year here on Friday night at home against Golden State. As they look to build up as much momentum as possible heading into the postseason. Dallas has been solid at home this season, and they currently sit in fifth in the conference which puts them right outside of home court advantage in the opening round. They will look to put together a strong finish to the regular season to get themselves into the top four as they look to host their opening round playoff series. They come into this game two games behind the Los Angeles Clippers for that fourth spot in the conference, and they will look to gain ground with a much-needed victory here in this one.
Betting trends to consider in this matchup:
- Dallas is 23-15 at home
- Dallas is 29-20 against the West
- Golden State is 22-24 against the West
I expect this to be a solid back-and-forth game here on Friday night between Golden State and Dallas. In the end I look for the Dallas Mavericks to pick up the victory against the Golden State Warriors at home. As I look for their advantage at home to play a factor in the outcome of this game on Friday night. Not only do I look for Dallas to pick up the victory over Golden State, but I also expect the Mavericks to cover the spread in the process.
