Houston Rockets vs Golden State Warriors: Current situation
Who would have thought that after everything we saw in this series so far that it’ll go to a decisive Game 7? Not many people. The Rockets came back from the dead with a stellar performance in Game 6 to steal back home court advantage and now they are the odds-on favorites to advance in this series. Houston is 7-5 SU in 12 Game 7s played all-time.
Stephen Curry and co. already have a 3-1 blown lead in the NBA postseason, getting another one would be a huge hit to Curry’s legacy here so the pressure is on him to respond following that upset loss on Friday. Just like Houston, the Warriors also have a positive record in Game 7s having won 6 of 11 games. However some of those games were played back in the 1940s, so it’s hard to take them into account.
Houston Rockets Stats & Form
Fred VanVleet once again stepped up big time, showing everyone why he’s an NBA champion by scoring 29 points, including 6 threes to carry Houston to a massive win in Game 6. It wasn’t just him though, as a team the Rockets played exceptional defense and also attacked the rim relentlessly resulting in 46 free throw attempts.
Golden State Warriors Stats & Form
Golden State’s offensive capabilities were once again exposed. This team is just too reliant on Stephen Curry and whenever he doesn’t have it going they are in trouble. Curry went just 6-for-16 from three-point land in Friday’s loss, the only help he got was from Jimmy Butler who ended the game with 27, but he too struggled with efficiency going just 1-for-6 from three.
Houston Rockets vs Golden State Warriors: Head-to-Head
For the 12th time this season it’s the Rockets and Warriors squaring off, with a spot in the Western Conference semi-final on the line. The Warriors have had the edge in 6 of the 11 meetings this year, but going into a Game 7 on the road that won’t help them much. The Rockets have now won consecutive games in this series and are 2-1 SU in the 3 meetings at Toyota Center.
Houston Rockets – Golden State Warriors Odds
If you fancy the Rockets to advance odds of 4/6 are available. Backing Stephen Curry and co. gets you odds of 11/8.
The point total has been set at just 201.5 points, with odds of 10/11 supporting either the over or the under.

Betting tip and prediction: Houston Rockets vs Golden State Warriors (04.05.2024.)
This series has taken quite a few twists and turns so far, the fact that it’s gone this far is not a surprise really, unless you’re a Warriors fan. Only a handful of teams in NBA history have blown 3-1 leads in the postseason, Golden State’s most famous one came in the NBA finals when they lost to LeBron James and the Cavaliers in 2016 despite being up 3-1. Experience could determine the outcome here, Golden State has the edge in that department and it’s not even close. Curry has played in 5 Game 7s in his career, he is posting 32.6 points, 6.4 rebounds and 7 assists per game in those match-ups. Jimmy Butler is also known for coming up clutch when it matters the most. He’s 2-2 SU in 4 Game 7s in his career with averages of 22 points, 6.3 rebounds and 3 assists per game. On the Rockets side of things not a lot of players played in a game like this, Fred VanVleet is the most notable one with a pair of them during Toronto’s 2019 title run. Houston will be happy to have this game at home where they went 29-12 SU during the regular season, in NBA history the home team has won 110 of 152 Game 7s so the odds are working in their favor. However, if we look at the last 12 Game 7s the road team has had the upper hand in 8 of them. We believe the Warriors will still have a thing or two to say here, let’s back the more seasoned veterans to pull off the win on the road in a hostile environment.
