Top Rated 10* NBA *GAME OF THE WEEK* Warriors/Raptors
(NBA) Golden State vs. Toronto,
Point Spread: -4.50 | -110.00 Golden State (Away)
Result: Win
Play: Golden State Warriors
Rating: 10*

The Toronto Raptors are coming off a 121-117 loss to the defending champs Cleveland Cavaliers on Tuesday. Tonight they'll host the Golden State Warriors, and I predict another setback for Toronto. The Raptors have covered the spread in each of their last eight when playing on no rest, but how many of those games have been against the up-tempo Warriors?

Golden State leads the league in offensive efficiency (the number of points a team scores per 100 possessions) and the team is third for pace (the number of possessions a team uses per game), so it should come as no surprise to see the Warriors top of the league in scoring, averaging 116.4 points per game. Toronto might want to try and slow down the tempo, but I think the Warriors will have none of it and really put pressure on the Raptors at both ends of the court.

Warriors are 19-7 ATS in the last 26 meetings, and I think they'll cover the spread as they travel north of the border Wednesday night.
