Through 3 Quarters

The Golden State Warriors are just one quarter away from delivering their fans the win they've been expecting. It's looking more and more like their high-powered offense is just too much for the Dallas Mavericks as Golden State lead 90-69.

Point guard Stephen Curry has led the way so far for the Warriors, as he has dropped a double-double on 21 points and 12 boards along with four assists. One thing to keep an eye out for is Draymond Green's foul situation as he currently sits at four.

Dallas has been relying on point guard Luka Doncic, who has 20 points and four assists in addition to six rebounds, and point guard Spencer Dinwiddie, who has 17 points.

The Mavericks have lost 78% of their games in which they were down going into the fourth quarter. Barring a miraculous turnaround, this game will end the same way.

Current Records: Dallas 4-3; Golden State 4-2

What to Know

After a few days' rest for both teams, the Dallas Mavericks and the Golden State Warriors will meet up at 9 p.m. ET May 18 at Chase Center. Dallas isn't expected to win, but seeing as the odds didn't stop them last game, maybe the squad has another upset up their sleeve.

The Phoenix Suns typically have all the answers at home, but on Sunday the Mavericks proved too difficult a challenge. Dallas steamrolled past Phoenix 123-90 on the road. With Dallas ahead 57-27 at the half, the matchup was all but over already. It was another big night for their point guard Luka Doncic, who shot 6-for-11 from beyond the arc and finished with a double-double on 35 points and ten boards. That makes it three consecutive games in which Doncic has had at least ten rebounds.

Meanwhile, Golden State didn't have too much trouble with the Memphis Grizzlies at home last Friday as they won 110-96. Golden State's shooting guard Klay Thompson was one of the most active players for the team, shooting 8-for-14 from downtown and finishing with 30 points and eight rebounds.

The Mavericks are expected to win this handily, but they should have beaten the Oklahoma City Thunder Feb. 2 easily too and instead slipped up with a 120-114. In other words, don't count the Warriors out just yet.
