Golden State Warriors - Houston Rockets

Last 2 games have seen neither team get to triple digits and Rockets' improved defense suffocating Warriors' offense has been very impressive. So logic says -- keep pounding on unders and cash in. Not so fast! Here's the thing. Warriors are facing the elimination and and have a home game vs CP3-less Rockets to navigate. I can easily see a huge rout here and that could end up crashing totals that are set at mere 212 points following previous low scoring games that totaled mere 192 and 187 points. The absence of Paul means Rockets will suffer offensively but, perhaps more importantly, they are losing one of their best defenders. Gordon is capable to offer some offense in terms of getting 20-30 points but what about defense. I think Warriors will run Rockets out of the Oracle arena on Saturday night and could well drop 130.
