Houston Rockets vs Golden State Warriors Prediction

The Rockets showed against the Suns that they can win without Durant. There’s also a revenge factor for the Rockets, as the last time they played the Warriors they were getting sent home in the playoffs. We’re still not getting enough points for me to pull the trigger. The Warriors are at home where they play their best ball, and they’re getting healthy for the most part. The Rockets have a lot of banged up bodies. This is also an NBA Cup game, and those vets in the Bay Area are still capable of getting up for games like this. I’ll lay the small number.
