Match Predict – Handicap (-4) for Warriors
The Dallas Mavs showed their best side and showed that they are real fighters. They played some tough games, especially against the Phoenix Suns in the second round of the playoffs and they will have to work even harder in the Western Conference final, especially since the series starts on the road.
The Golden State Warriors are now the primary championship contenders and, if they maintain their momentum, they should have no trouble reaching the final round of the tournament. The Warriors are focused on results, Stephan Curry is in great shape, and the game will be played at home, so they have a better chance of success than their opponent.
Total Points – Over 212
The teams have no serious losses, so it is unlikely that the opponents will choose to play on defence, especially since the Mavericks and Warriors are in good form. In our opinion, we will see a spectacular game.
Away Team Points – Over 109.5

The Golden State Warriors finished third at the end of the regular season, but it was noticeable that the team was aiming for more. Steve Kerr’s men approached the first round of the playoffs in good form, so you could say they overlooked the Denver Nuggets (4-1).
With each win, Golden State became one of the main contenders for the championship, and in the second series, they overcame a difficult opponent from Memphis (4-2). Stephen Curry’s phenomenon played a key role in that game, as the leader saved the team more than once. The Western Conference final is next, and here, too, we should expect surprises.
In the last game against the Grizzlies, the Warriors were victorious (110-96). The Warriors’ guard Klay Thompson had good results with 30 points, 8 rebounds and 2 assists.
