The Warriors took care of business and handled the Clippers in their match up as 5.5 point favorites. The Beard and Superman will look to stop the “Splash Brothers” and the Warriors. The Warriors and the Rockets both undefeated records. One team will walk away with their first loss and according to lines-makers, the Rockets are the favorites by a point. Both teams are quite evenly matched and the line dictates that prediction too.
*Injury note (GSW) David Lee. (HOU) Terrence Jones Patrick Beverly.
With James Harden’s ability to get to the charity stripe and the Warriors high octane offense, the combined total for the contest is set at 209. Dwight Howard’s poor free-throw can hurt those who seek a high scoring game. For those seeking more specific action on the Warriors:
Player Props:
Stephen Curry
Total Points Over/Under: 24.5
Total Assists Over/Under: 7.5
Total Points, Rebounds, & Assists: 37.5
Klay Thompson
Total Points Over/Under: 21.5
Total Rebounds & Assists Over/Under: 5.5
Total Points, Rebounds, & Assists: 27
Draymond Green
Total Points Over/Under: 9.5
Total Rebounds, & Assists: 10
Although Thompson and Curry have averaged 27 and 26 points respectively, it looks like the lines-makers still don’t believe Thompson can keep up his scoring. After being inserted in the starting five for David Lee, sportbooks have even added Draymond Green player props.
