Few teams in the NBA have more public-sector credibility than the Golden State Warriors. But when you get past the bright lights of the marquee, the Warriors are a team fighting to stay above .500. Of major concern is the terrible board value offered by Golden State. Few teams operate under the radar more effectively than the Memphis Grizzlies. And Wise Guys love it that way. Memphis is battling the Denver Nuggets for the top NBA Bets seed in the Western Conference. Most important of all, the Grizzlies are providing good betting value.

Memphis will face its real test in the playoffs. Last year they did not deliver the goods, but that can be written off as inexperience.
Golden State Warriors Team Overview
Overall, the Golden State Warriors are 23-23 straight up, 23-23-1 against the spread, and 27-17 over/under the total.
To summarize, Golden State has NBA metrics of 4th for scoring offense, 18th for field goal percentage, 5th for 3-point field goal percentage, 7th for free throw percentage, and 11th for offensive rebounding.

Golden State has covered four of its last five games. Five of its previous six tilts went over the total. Of course, Stephen Curry leads the Warriors with 29.3 points per game.
The Warriors are fortunate to be in a weaker Western Conference and Pacific Division this season. Most of the teams are far below par. Consider that the perennially mediocre Sacramento Kings lead the Pacific. And that the Lakers are not a serious threat.
Golden State is trying to reinvent the game with its all-offense approach. Eventually, the Warriors will have to tighten up some on the back end.
