Golden State at New York

Golden State got thumped by New York in the last game, 95-67. But this expansion team has been surprisingly good, winning two of their last three games outright. They knocked off Washington, 76-72, then won at Los Angeles, 82-73 as a double-digit dog. They're eighth in the 13-team league in points given up, fifth in offensive rebounding, second in free-throw shooting (84%), and No. 1 in steals. New York is last in the league in offensive rebounding. This is a difficult situational spot for New York, playing the first of a back-to-back, with a game scheduled at Washington tomorrow. Getting double-digits off a loss, I like the dog. Play Golden State.
