Warriors Face Massive Chalk vs Mavs

The Golden State Warriors will have revenge on their minds Wednesday when the Dallas Mavericks invade Oracle Arena. The Mavs knocked off the Warriors 114-91 on December 30, but that was without all world point guard Stephen Curry. “Chef Curry” is back, and sportsbooks have noticed. Most shops opened the Dubs as 15.5-point home chalk for the tilt.

Shark Bites
  • The Mavericks are 1-6 ATS in their last seven games against the Warriors.
  • The Warriors are 2-9 ATS in their last 11 games with one day off between games.
  • The Mavericks are 5-0 SU and 4-1 ATS in their last five games after consecutive ATS losses.

Steve Kerr’s crew have been far from a reliable play as huge faves as of late, however. Golden State is 20-0 SU in its last 20 when favored by 15.5 points or more, but have covered the closing spread just five times.

Tonight’s contest marks the first time the Mavs have been this big of underdogs in the 2015-16 NBA campaign. Dirk Nowitzki and company have been dogs of 10 points or more four times and are 1-3 ATS in those games.

When the Mavericks face off against Western Conference foes, the UNDER has been a hot bet. Thirteen of Dallas’s previous 18 matchup versus the West have gone below the total.
