Best bets for Warriors vs Suns
Bookmakers at 22bet believe that the Suns can go past 113.5 as the odds for going past that mark for Team 2 has been placed at 1.9. I believe that they can even go past 116 here considering how poor Warriors defense has been but yes, there has to be some caution considering this is a home game for the team.
Bookmakers at bet365 give 1.86 odds when it comes to Jordan Poole going past 24.5 points here and why not, he has been the enforcer on that end for the Warriors having scored 25, 26, 24, 30, 26 in the last five games. This can be a safe bet considering how much Jordan is getting to run the offense.
Bookmakers at 1xbet reckon that the chances of the Golden State Warriors winning are low and they will have to overcome the odds of 2.435 compared to 1.65 for the Suns. This is a completely understandable measure and betting for the Suns with a handicap of -4.5 brings the odds to 1.97, which is again due to their phenomenal form. It will not be a surprise if the Suns roll over the Warriors by around 10 points or so.
Bet on Golden State Warriors - Phoenix SunsWarriors form
The second half of this season has been like the last season for the Warriors. They have been frustrating these days and with Draymond Green still not in the full flow, their defense has continued to be porous. The matters have been worsened by the absence of Stephen Curry, but there were signs of danger even while he was active, so the team needs him back now. Poole, Thompson, and Wiggins make for a sturdy PG to SF combination in terms of scoring, but they will all need to more efficient from here on because a couple of more losses will result in Mavericks taking over the third spot.
Suns form
The Suns are the benchmark of success in the league and no team, except perhaps the Grizzlies have been even close to them. They have the strongest backcourt on both ends with veteran Chris Paul running the show and Devin Booker terrorizing defenses with his isolation scoring while also being a terrific defender this season. Mikal Bridges doesn’t skip a beat on both ends of the floor while Jae Crowder and Deandre Ayton provide incredible depth upfront on both ends of the floor. There is no doubt that the Suns will be the title favorites from here on.
