Without Stephen Curry and Draymond Green, I believe their losing woes continue against an improving Rockets team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Golden State is 87-148 all-time without Curry. The situation worsens without the presence of Green, whose versatility and defensive prowess would be the X-factor in this matchup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Houston is winless in its last 14 games against the Warriors, so laying a juicy moneyline price could be discomforting. However, these two teams are trending in opposite directions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Rockets are 6-0 after a loss this season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After a nine-point defeat to the Kings on Tuesday, Ime Udoka&#8217;s team will be determined to get back on track.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"block-89a1765e-b418-46d4-b497-651bc59723d9\">SGP legs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/online.northstarbets.ca\/page?key=ej0xMzUyNDU3MiZsPTEzNTcxMDUzJnA9MjM3MDk%3D\">Hield over 2.5 threes (-190):<\/a><\/strong> In Curry&#8217;s absence, the Warriors will depend on Hield to produce from behind the arc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the four games without Curry, he has drained at least three shots from distance:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Oct. 29 vs. Pelicans: 7-for-11 from three.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Oct. 30 vs. Pelicans: 4-for-12 from three.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Nov. 2 at Rockets: 6-for-10 from three.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Nov. 27 vs. Thunder: 5-for-8 from three.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Houston&#8217;s strong defence doesn&#8217;t present the best matchup for the veteran guard, who has shown to be streaky. However, the heavy shot volume will make up for his inconsistencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This line feels like a layup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/online.northstarbets.ca\/page?key=ej0xMzUyNDU3MiZsPTEzNTcxMDUzJnA9MjM3MDk%3D\">Green over 0.5 steals (-190):<\/a><\/strong> Green is slowly evolving into a solid defender.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 22-year-old guard has recorded a steal in seven of the last 10 games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Curry is the Warriors&#8217; primary ball handler. Without him and Draymond creating plays, the team is prone to a few more turnovers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This opens up plenty of minutes for Brandin Podziemski, who has seen his turnover rate increase when tasked to create his own offence. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a favourable matchup for Green to rack up defensive stats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-049eee7c-fa25-40b8-b13d-7bb92000f313\"><em>Picks made at 12:08 p.m. on 12\/04\/24.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"thestar\"><em>Looking to get started? <a href=\"https:\/\/online.northstarbets.ca\/page?key=ej0xMzUyNzQxMyZsPTEzNTI3NDExJnA9MjMyNDM%3D\">Sign up here.<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Golden State Warriors host the Houston Rockets in Thursday&#8217;s NBA nightcap.
