The Golden State Warriors replied to an 87-79 loss at San Antonio by grinding out a five-point win at Minnesota Monday. They're still on pace to beat the 1995-96 Chicago Bulls' league record of 72 wins and they've won an NBA-record 50 consecutive regular-season home games. They're catching the Los Angeles Clippers at a good time and I'm laying the points with the Warriors in this contest.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Road Woes - The Clippers will conclude a five-game trip with the toughest match-up possible. Previous results on the trip does not speak in their favor with losses at San Antonio, Memphis and New Orleans and a lone win at Houston. The Clippers are 1-4 ATS in their last five road games and 6-17 ATS in the last 23 meetings at Oracle Arena.

2. Situational - The Warriors are playing on one days rest since Monday's 109-104 win at Minnesota and are 6-1-1 ATS in their last eight games playing on one days rest. The Clippers have had an extra day off since a 109-105 loss at New Orleans Sunday but are 0-6 ATS in their last six games playing on two days rest.

3. X-Factor - Stephen Curry is mired in a shooting slump and went 6-of-17 from the floor at Minnesota, but he is averaging 31.3 points in three meetings with the Clippers this season.

Selection: This is a play on the Golden State Warriors (10*)
