Golden State Warriors PG Stephen Curry is a game-time decision with an ankle injury Sunday<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

San Antonio owns a 2-1 advantage in this best-of-seven series after picking up a 102-92 victory over Golden State as two-point road underdogs in Game 3 Friday, while going UNDER the total for a second consecutive contest.\u00a0 \u201cIt\u2019s a huge win,\u201d commented Spurs point guard Tony Parker.\u00a0 \u201cWe played a lot more physical on the defensive end.\u201d\u00a0 He finished with a game-high 32 points, but is listed as probable with a calf injury in Game 4.\u00a0 San Antonio is 6-1 SU and 5-2 ATS in the 2013 NBA playoffs, which is important to consider when looking over the pro basketball odds page.<\/p>\n

The Spurs were 23-18 overall when playing away from the AT&T Center, including a 11-15 mark versus Western Conference foes.\u00a0 San Antonio has compiled a 12-2 record in the postseason when Parker scores 30 or more points, but forward Tim Duncan will likely need to be the star on the offensive end Sunday, as he comes in averaging 19.3 points and 8.6 rebounds.\u00a0 The former Wake Forest star finished with 23 and 10 in those categories last time out.<\/p>\n

Golden State is certainly up against it in facing a veteran-laden roster if star point guard Stephen Curry is unable to go in this affair, as he\u2019s dealing with a left ankle injury.\u00a0 \u201cYou never really know how it\u2019s going to feel the next day,\u201d commented Curry Saturday.\u00a0 He\u2019s averaging a team-high 25.3 points and 8.8 assists during the playoffs, but shot just 5 of 17 from the field Friday.\u00a0 Jarrett Jack may be called upon to play extra minutes in this affair, with the team going 2-2 without its star on the floor during the regular season.\u00a0 Golden State is 2-0 SUATS when trailing in a playoff series.<\/p>\n

The Warriors have won three of four games at Oracle Arena since moving past the regular season, which can\u2019t be ignored when making your NBA picks against the spread.\u00a0 Golden State has won seven of its last nine home playoff games, but hasn\u2019t won two series in the same playoffs since walking away with the championship in 1975.<\/p>\n

Sports bettors will likely play the total in this affair, with the UNDER going 5-2-1 in the last eight meetings<\/p>\n
