The Golden State Warriors pursuit of the NBA's best all time regular season record continues Tuesday, with a home game against the struggling Washington Wizards. The Warriors need to win seven of their final nine games to break the Bulls record of 72 wins in the 1995-96 season. This looks like a tough spot for the Wizards, who rank among the league's worst defensive teams. My money is on the Warriors to win big.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Previous History - The Warriors have owned this series in recent seasons, covering the spread in six of the last seven meetings. The Wizards last visit to Oracle ended with a 107-76 loss, and Washington is just 1-6 ATS in it's last seven road games against teams with a winning record.

2. Home Cookin' - It's been a long time since the Warriors lost at Oracle, and they are 39-0 at home this season. They are coming off a 117-105 home win over Philadelphia, failing to cover as favorite of more than 20 points. They rarely fail to cover twice in a row, going 18-8 ATS in their last 26 games following an ATS loss.

3. X-Factor - The Warriors are 7-3-1 ATS in their last 11 games playing on 1 days rest.

Selection: This is a play on the Golden State Warriors (10*)
