Golden State Warriors @ Houston Rockets Odds
Warriors Look to Rebound, Rockets Aim to Continue Streak
The Golden State Warriors will look to rebound from a tough loss when they visit the Houston Rockets on Wednesday night. The Warriors are coming off a 122-116 defeat to the Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday, while the Rockets have won their last two games.
The Warriors are still without Stephen Curry, who is recovering from a broken hand. However, they will be boosted by the return of Klay Thompson, who missed the game against the Lakers with a sore knee. Thompson is averaging 22.3 points per game this season.
The Rockets are led by James Harden, who is averaging 36.1 points per game this season. Harden is one of the most dangerous scorers in the NBA, and he will be a tough matchup for the Warriors' defense.
Odds
The Warriors are favored by 3.5 points over the Rockets. The over/under for the game is 232.5 points.
The Warriors are the defending NBA champions, but they have struggled this season without Curry. They are just 10-10 on the road this season.
The Rockets have been one of the most surprising teams in the NBA this season. They are currently in fourth place in the Western Conference with a record of 19-12.
The Rockets are led by James Harden, who is one of the best players in the NBA. Harden is averaging 36.1 points per game this season, and he is also one of the best passers in the league.
The Warriors are a tough matchup for any team, but they are especially vulnerable without Curry. The Rockets are a good team, and they have a chance to win this game if they can slow down Harden.
Prediction
The Warriors are the defending NBA champions, but they are a different team without Curry. The Rockets are a good team, and they have a chance to win this game if they can slow down Harden.
I predict that the Rockets will win this game by a score of 115-110.
