The Houston Rockets beat the Warriors three of four times this season, including once in Oracle without Harden. The Rockets have been asking for a rematch after having the Warriors on the ropes last year in the playoffs until CP3 was injured. The Warriors have been shaky at best this season and that's carried over to the playoffs where they needed six games to beat a Clippers squad that has its best players coming off the bench. The Rockets are well rested, playing quality defense and have won outright six of their last eight games as an underdog. The Golden State Warriors have been horrible ATS this season at home and have failed to cover 13 of their last 20 games as a home favorite. There's also word that Klay and Curry are dealing with serious ankle issues. There's a lot suggesting to take the points here, a game the Rockets have a great chance to win outright.
