04 Jan 2018, Houston Rockets - Golden State Warriors

[Thrilla]

The Rockets will miss James Harden and Mbah a Moute is also still out. Tough game for the Rockets, without their best man, who always plays around 40+/- minutes in important games.
Believe that the offense from the Rockets without Harden is too weak to hurt the Warriors for four periods long. The Warriors will have their full roster today and their bench are 1-2 levels over the Rockets bench.

Take the Warriors.

Kevin Durant will not play in Thursday's game against the Rockets due to a right calf strain.

Durant suffered the injury in last nights win vs. the Dallas Mavericks and played through it.

On first thought the game means more to the Rockets. Cause everybody wants to beat the Warriors. On the other hand the Warriors know this, so it might trigger them to be more competitive as the Rockets are one of the direct rivals for the title. Do they want to make a statement? And howfar is Steve Ker going to stretch his starters on a 2nd night on the road after yesterday with Dallas pushing them to the limit.
Though both were on the road last night with the Warriors travelling a much shorter distance towards tonights venue.

Warriors will still cover the short line. No way they lose to Rockets twice this season.
