CBS Sports: Take the Warriors with the points in Game 6 vs. Lakers

Sam Quinn writes: "If Davis can play in Game 6? The Lakers should still be in relatively good shape to finish this series off. They've been dominant at home this postseason. However, without knowing how healthy Davis will be, the Lakers have to be considered underdogs. This could change at any moment, but for now, the only responsible pick is Golden State."
