Oakland vs. Toledo Prediction 11/18/2017

Defensively the Rockets have played OK in their two games this season, but they have yet to be tested by a team with Oakland’s offensive ability. They did allow 87 to St. Joes and logically the Golden Grizzlies can put up a number in that range. I think that this game could easily go over, but when I look at what Oakland did in the first half in their two matches this campaign outscoring the opposition by a combined 94-52 with the lowest margin being 20 points at the half the side play is the way to go.
