Rockets at Warriors picks and predictionsPrediction<\/p>\n

Warriors 108, Rockets 104<\/p>\n

PASS.<\/p>\n

There is not a lot of value on the Warriors (-210) to close the series at home against a Rockets squad that has dropped 4 straight road games.<\/p>\n

BET ROCKETS +5.5 (-110).<\/p>\n

Facing elimination, the Rockets will likely fight to stay in this game. Curry’s lingering hand injury may continue to impact his play, and Houston has covered in 3 of the past 4 games.<\/p>\n

BET OVER 206.5 (-110).<\/p>\n

The Warriors have scored 104 or more points in 3 straight games and 7 of their last 10. They have allowed 106 or more points in 3 of the last 4 games and 6 of their last 9.<\/p>\n

The Rockets have scored 106 or more points in 8 of their last 10 games, while allowing 104 or more in 7 of their last 10.<\/p>\n

The Over has hit in back-to-back games in this series.<\/p>\n
