Golden State Warriors at San Antonio Spurs Overview<br />
</h2>
<p>
This Warriors are rapidly moving in on what seems to be another sweep against a beleaguered and snake-bitten San Antonio team when they completed a 136-100 victory in Game Two. The Spurs seem to be in position to potentially get back into the series here with two games going back to San Antonio. However, as mentioned the status of Leonard makes this market all the more dubious as his presence on the court is influential in many facets.

Golden State Warriors at San Antonio Spurs Prediction
We are not proponents of playing road chalk but this situation sets up perfectly. Despite by winning by more than 36 points when Golden State was priced as a -13.5 favorite in Game Two. Now, there is a chance that Leonard can return for this game and that nebulous prospect is what is more or less fueling the price. Had Leonard been confirmed to not return, we could expect the price to soar as his absence was clearly a huge deal in Game Two. With this being said, we will not take any chances on San Antonio even if they are at a home and being spotted points. Golden State overall as a team of its caliber and propensity to be overvalued especially in high-profile contests has been non-existent in the playoffs when spotting single-digit points. As a favorite of 9.5 points or less the Warriors are 4-0 ATS. We will go ahead and step in with the public yet again on this one.
Free Pick:
Take Golden State -6
