Expert Prediction: Who Wins?
Why the Golden State Warriors Could Win
The Golden State Warriors have been contenders for the last decade and have a fantastic chance of beating the Washington Wizards on Monday night. Steph Curry is still questionable for this NBA game, but the Warriors still have the personnel needed without their star guard.
Draymond Green has been with the Warriors since he was 22 years old and still has plenty to give the team at 34. His ability to command the game without scoring points is like few other players in the league. He can distribute the ball effectively and doesn’t hesitate to get dirty under the rim.
The Warriors lost sharpshooter Klay Thompson, but the new arrival, Buddy Hield, filled his shoes nicely. He has scored over 20 points in 4/5 games this season while shooting 50% from behind the three point line. The Wizards’ perimeter defenders are far below average, so if Hield can get going, he can quickly pile on the points for the Golden State Warriors in this NBA game.
The Golden State Warriors have been one of the most successful NBA predictions in recent years, and this is no exception. The status of Steph Curry will go a long way in determining the inevitable winner of this game. If Curry plays, the Warriors are a slam dunk NBA prediction. However, if Curry misses this one, the NBA odds will swing in favor of the Washington Wizards. If the Warriors get close to even odds against the Wizards, they have more than enough talent on their roster to pick up a road win without their leader.
Why the Washington Wizards Could Win
The Washington Wizards have already exceeded expectations this season by reaching the .500 mark at this stage of the season. Jordan Poole has been effective on both ends of the court, and the former Warrior will be desperate to have a good game against his former employers.
Poole leads the team with 22.5 PPG, 6 assists, and 3 steals this season. Poole has been able to score the basketball efficiently and hasn’t hesitated to set up his teammates if he sees them open behind the arc. The Wizards have benefited from playing a weak Hawks defense twice this season, but they still averaged 109 PPG against both the Celtics and Cavaliers. The Wizards are at home, and their explosive offense combined with an exuberant home crowd could certainly allow them to defy the NBA odds against the Golden State Warriors.
If Curry misses this matchup, which is increasingly likely, the Wizards could pull off this upset. Their defense is still questionable, but their ability to score points, especially at home, will be a real difference maker.
