Prediction

Warriors 110, Mavericks 102

Money line

The Mavericks couldn’t muster a lead at the end of any quarter in a game in which they needed a win the most to avoid a 3-0 deficit. No team in NBA history has ever overcome trailing 3-0 in a series.

The Warriors have only 3 total losses since the start of April, a span of 19 games. They are 3-3 on the road in the playoffs.

Doncic has been spectacular the last 2 games but hasn’t received any help.

The Warriors just have too much firepower and too convincing a lead in the series.

Take the WARRIORS (-103) to close out the series.
