The Warriors are on the verge of closing out their third straight playoff series at Chase Center.

After ending the seasons of the Denver Nuggets and Memphis Grizzlies, Golden State can dispatch the Dallas Mavericks in Game 5 on Thursday night. Warriors broadcast legend Jim Barnett joined 95.7 The Game’s “The Morning Roast” Thursday and said he expects the Warriors to handle business to reach their sixth NBA Finals in eight years.

“They’re at home, I expect them to win,” Barnett told Bonta Hill and Joe Shasky. “I don’t expect the Mavericks to hit 50 percent of their 3s or close to there like they did last time. But they’ve got to be careful of that. I’d say it’s very important early in the game to defend that 3-point line. Don’t give them any confidence.”
