The Iceman's Free Pick
(NBA) Golden State vs. Houston, 01/20/2017 3:00 PM, Score: 125 - 108
Total: 237.00 | -110.00 Over
Result: Win
This is a Free #NBA play on GS@HOU to go UNDER the total.

All eyes will be on Houston Friday, when MVP favorite James Harden and the Houston Rockets host the Golden State Warriors. There are plenty of interesting storylines here.. a revenge spot for the Warriors who lost to the Rockets in OT at home earlier this year. Or if could be a let down spot for the Dubs, coming off a blowout win over the Thunder, with KD scoring a whopping 40 points against his former team. I'm not interested in picking a winner here, as I've got my eyes on the total. The over/under is set at an enormous 236.5 points, and I simply can't resist betting the under with such an inflated number. The last time these teams met, the final score was 132-127 for Houston. Only 228 of those points were scored in regulation though, and only once in the last 10 meetings have these teams combined for more than 228 points. That was a 123-110 home win for the Warriors, and those 233 points still fall short of tonight's total. The Warriors have now gone under 10 of their last 11 road games. Even for those who think this game is going to be a shootout, there's just no value betting over with such an inflated total.

Take UNDER.
