The road to beating the Golden State Warriors goes through the NBA’s paragon of consistency, the San Antonio Spurs.
The Spurs and Houston Rockets go head-to-head for the fourth time this season tonight in San Antonio.
Our Basketball Power Index gives the Spurs a 23 percent chance to beat the Warriors in a postseason series, by far the best of any team. The team with the next-best chance is the Rockets (12 percent). Both are better than the Cavaliers, whose chance stands at only seven percent.
If there was any thought that the Spurs would be slowed by their Rodeo Road Trip, it proved unfounded.
