(NBA) Houston vs. Golden State,
Point Spread: 13.00 | -105.00 Houston (Away)
Result: Win
This play is being made based with the assumption Stephen Curry plays. We clearly expect a bit of a letdown after Golden State finished the season with the immense pressure of the All-time wins record and there was no doubt they'd be up for game #1, but tonight is bit different. A 26 point win allows Golden State to take a breath and if Curry has any lingering injury his minutes will be limited late. On the flip side Houston shot their second worst FG% since January 15th and the rockets are 6-1 ATS after a loss by 11 points or more. Look for a rebound from the offensive minded Rockets and an embarrassing loss which be a wake up call especially for James Harden who was the Western Conference Player of the Month for April averaging 35 ppg. He also didn't get to the FT line once and that is rare for him.
