The last one was against the Milwaukee Bucks which are the most competent opponents in the league. It was a game where the main news was the absence of LeBron James because of his foot injury. The NBA’s leading scorer will recover in time for this new commitment, although the Lakers must step up their performance away from home if they want to stand a chance against the Warriors. They have lost 17 out of 29 games played in that capacity; proving why they are ranked 13th in the Western Conference. In the defensive department, this team hasn’t played well either, averaging 118.6 points allowed per night, these numbers make them the third-worst squad in this area. Betting On The Golden State Warriors Season Record: 28-27 1XBet Spread: -2.5 1XBet Moneyline: 1.79 1XBet Over/Under: Under 238.5 BetMGM Spread: -2.5 BetMGM Moneyline: 1.76 BetMGM Over/Under: Under 238.5 The Golden State Warriors are licking their wounds over losing Stephen Curry, but this hasn’t made them less of a competitive team in the matches they have played without him. They became this way after suffering defeat at the hands of the Portland Trail Blazers by 125-122; significantly damaging their opponent despite playing away from home. Losing the Trail Blazers cut short the Warriors’ winning streak of two successive victories, but they will now go back to winning at the Chase Center, where they won 21 of the 27 games they’ve played. MatchPlug Prediction LeBron James is expected to come back for this matchup to play with a Lakers team that just got reinforcement from their acquisitions in the market. Their away numbers are not looking good, but on the upside, they won’t face Curry today. The Warriors are strong players at home, but, like the Lakers, they too have not been a top franchise on defense, averaging 118.3 points allowed in each game, figures they must improve if they want to retain the championship title they won last campaign. NBA Expert Picks predict a high-scoring game, since both teams have high-level attacks, but weak defense zones.
