The Mavs and Warriors lit up the scoreboard in Dallas in Game 5, but both games in Oakland went Under in this series, and the Mavs have gone Under in 57% of their road games the last three years.
These teams easily played Over in Game 5 of this series, which was in Dallas.
However, the two games that have been played at Golden State both stayed below the number with relative ease, with combined scores of 200 and 202 points respectively. Including those results, the Under is now 25-16-2 in all Mavericks road games this year, and 6-3 when they are listed as road favorites of three points or less. Looking back further, and we find that the Under is 80-60-3 (57%) in all Dallas road games the past three seasons.
As for 2006-07 only, the Mavs are allowing less than 94 points per game on the road, while the Warriors have also shown that they can play some defense, holding Dallas to double-digits in both series games played here. Finally, this total has climbed a few points from Tuesday's game, giving us some extra room to work with.
