The greatest two words in sports: Game. Seven. It has come down to this win-or-go-home matchup between the Golden State Warriors and the Houston Rockets after the latter has won the last two elimination games. The NBA betting odds now favor the Rockets to finish the comeback, defend their home court, and advance to the next round. Here’s how it happens.

Warriors vs Rockets NBA Playoffs Prediction

This will be an old-school-like game (it has been all series) with rough play, poor shooting, and plenty of hustle. Which team wants it more? Houston outscrapped Golden State in San Francisco after blowing the Warriors out in Game 5. The Rockets’ youth and grit have shone, so they are the first of our NBA picks for today.

Warriors vs Rockets Best Player Props Today

  • Warriors G Stephen Curry Under 26.5 Points (-115)

Stephen Curry is not 100%. The former Finals MVP has been held to 19.7 points per game on 39.8% shooting in the last three contests. Maybe it’s his hurt thumb or the overly physical defense against him. But we can’t bet him to score over his points prop. The first of our NBA player prop picks is for him to go under 26.5 points.

 

  • Rockets C Steven Adams 2+ Blocks (+104)

Steven Adams has emerged as an unlikely hero for the Rockets. He has locked down the paint and swatted at least two shots when he’s played big minutes (over 26). We see him continuing this trend in what should be a close game. Bet him to get 2+ blocks at generous odds.

  • Rockets G Fred VanVleet Over 26.5 Pts+Reb+Ast (-117)

Curry’s struggles have been to Fred VanVleet’s benefit. The former Raptor seems to play his best when his back is against the wall and when he’s against Golden State. VanVleet has averaged 26.7 points, 5.3 assists, and 3.7 rebounds in the last three contests. The last of our NBA player prop bets is on a combo line that did not adjust.

Warriors vs Rockets Moneyline Pick

Golden State could not close out Houston, as we expected. The Rockets made the Warriors look old as they wore them out and pulled away in the fourth in Game 6. Something similar could happen here, especially with Golden State’s offense sputtering. Keep an eye on the NBA’s latest news regarding Curry as Houston continues to grind out wins.

Bet On Rockets ML (-145)

 

Warriors vs Rockets Spread Pick

The Warriors were cool NBA Finals betting picks, but now that’s Houston. The Rockets were supposed to be too inexperienced, but a win here will make everyone notice, like the oddsmakers who have favored them. Houston has covered four of the last five games and is 31-13 at home (27-10 as a favorite). Bet the Rockets to win and cover.

Bet on Rockets -3 (-110)

 

Warriors vs Rockets Over/Under Pick

We typically like to bet over when totals are this low. But Game 7 will have hard-nosed defending and a sluggish pace. These teams already have low-scoring contests with an average total of just 204.2 points (last 10 meetings). The total went under seven out of 10 times. Bet online on the under.
