Charlotte at Golden State

The Golden State Warriors have been one of the biggest surprises in the early going of the NBA season. The warriors enter here at 17-9, and appear to be a bona fide playoffs contender. They have been playing at a high level, but were derailed in Sacramento in their last game. They will have one eye on their game tomorrow vs. the LA Lakers, and with no rest before that game, I could easily see them putting forth as little effort as possible here vs. the 7-18 Bobcats. Charlotte has already matched their season win total of a year ago, and is still not a good team, but is much improved at the same time. Golden St. is in a likely letdown spot with LA waiting, and they are 0-4 ATS in their last four vs. a team with a road winning percentage of less than .400. Go with Charlotte and the points.
