The NBA is back in action today as the Golden State Warriors will clash with the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Warriors are heading into this game after a hard fought win at home against Houston with a score of 106-104. On the other side, the Thunder lost in a tight contest against the Pacers with a score of 108-106.
Golden State Warriors Form
The Warriors are one of the best teams in the league. Moreover, they are at the top spot in the Western Conference with only one game ahead of the Nuggets. The Warriors are a strong team and they have a strong chance to win the trophy at the end of the season. However, they might miss Kevin Durant as he is suffering from an injury at the moment.
On the offensive side of the game, the Warriors score an average of 118 points per game. Therefore, this record is the best in the league in scoring. Also, they have an average of 46.1 boards per game combined with 29.1 assists per night.
On the defensive side of the game, the Warriors concede an average of 112.2 points per game. Therefore, this record is enough for the low 19th spot in the league in scoring defence.
Oklahoma Thunder Form
The Thunder played well in their last game against the Pacers. Although the Pacers were favourites to win, still this Oklahoma team showed some strong performances. On the end, they were unfortunate to lose the game.
The Thunder entered Friday night fifth in the Western Conference, five games behind the Warriors. They need to maintain a good form in order to keep their playoff spot
On the offensive side of the game, the Thunder score an average of 114.9 points per game. Therefore, this record is the 4th in the league in scoring. Also, they have an average of 48.1 boards per game combined with 23.1 assists per night.
On the defensive side of the game, the Thunder concedes an average of 110.9 points per game. Therefore, this record is enough for the low 1tth spot in the league in scoring defence.
Prediction
The Thunder have a tough schedule. They will play their 4th game in the last four days. Therefore, it is expected that the fatigue will kick in. Also, they are facing one of the best teams in the league at the moment.
The Warriors offensive firepower is second to none and I expect a dominant performance from them in this game. Take the Warriors to win this one
