Dallas Mavericks vs Toronto Raptors: Game Prediction

The Dallas Mavericks every season are a better team than their seeding shows. There is a bigger gap from the 1st seed to the 2nd seed in the East than from the 1st seed to the 8th seed in the West. Luka and company are not a team you want to see as a reward for a top seed in the conference in round one. The Mavericks are a solid team on the road winning 15 of 26 games. The Mavericks are near the end of their East road trip and this game will be the second night of a back to back. 

The Toronto Raptors are winning games in the most important part of the season. Nearing the finish line, Toronto is in play for a play-in tournament and are catching hot at the perfect time. Toronto looks to continue their three game win streak as they go against a few Western Conference teams in a row this week. The Raptors need to seize every opportunity and take advantage that Dallas is going to be on the second night of a back to back. 

The Dallas Mavericks are such an underrated team. Luka Doncic is having an MVP caliber season and he has Kyrie Irving on his team. After acquiring solid players at the deadline to add to their depth, they are a scary team. Toronto has been playing well as of late and will keep this game close at home, but Dallas will ultimately win it. This game should be one of the better ones of the night and I expect a lot of scoring. 

Moneyline Pick: Dallas Mavericks (-155)
