Golden State at Houston

img9:05 PM Eastern

Houston gets to play Game 7 at home and that's a huge advantage in the NBA Playoffs, even after Boston's loss on Sunday. Home teams in Game 7 are 67-15 (81.7 percent) straight up and 47-33-2 (58.5 percent) ATS since 1982. The Rockets were humiliated, 126-85, in Game 3 and bounced back to win the next one. And we have a similar situation here as Houston managed only 25 points in the second half on Saturday. The Rockets have had a chance now to make adjustments in case Chris Paul is unable to play due to injury, and they have covered the spread four straight following a loss. Also, Houston is 5-1 ATS its last six games after a loss of at least 10 points. Golden State is 6-21-1 ATS its last 28 games after a win of at least 10 points and 5-17 ATS after any win. Grab the points with the Rockets.
