Warriors vs. Spurs picks and predictions
Prediction
Warriors 116, Spurs 115
Moneyline
PASS.
The Warriors (-350) should be able to bounce back now that G Stephen Curry (shoulder) has had a game to shake off the rust after an 11-game absence. However, the price is too high for a team that is 3-16 on the road. Bet the spread or total instead.
Against the spread
BET SPURS +8.5 (-110).
This is practically a home game for the Spurs who are catching too many points vs. the worst road team record-wise. San Antonio has covered in 7 of its last 8 games and should be able to keep it close against a Warriors team that is 1-7 ATS when playing as a favorite away from Chase Center. Take the points.
Over/Under
BET UNDER 243.5 (-108).
This number is too high considering these teams tend to play low-scoring games against each other and the Under is 6-1-1 in the last 8 meetings. The Under is 4-1-1 in Golden State’s last 6 games vs. teams with a losing record and Friday should be another low-scoring affair as both teams tighten up defensively on national television.
