    Why Golden State -3
    I'm trying to figure out why everyone's on Golden State tonight.

    Magic playing the second of a back-to-back vs. a team that does nothing but run. Thus, Olando fatigue may kick in in fourth quarter. That said, I passed the game.

      Golden State is, in my opinion, playing the best ball of any team in the league at the moment. They've won 9/10 overall, and are 8-1 with Stephen Jackson (who was suspended for the first 7 games of the season) in the lineup. 5 of their 9 wins have come by double digits during that span, with the only loss coming at Boston on the second night of a back-to-back.

      Adding to what LT said - both teams, in fact, are on the second night of back-to-back games, but while Orlando played a tough, competitive game against the Lakers, GS was able rest many of their starters in the second half as they cruised to an easy win over Seattle. Orlando's playing the last game of a 5-game road trip out west, and there's no tougher team to play than GS when fatigue is a factor, as no team in the league plays at the same pace as Don Nelson's squad.

      Basically, it's a pretty strong situational play, and the Warriors are playing very good ball at the moment. I played GS -1 last night.
