Hi friends.
Washington in yesterday's a match has failed the beginning of a match. Players have gathered only after a break and could reduce backlog, but the rival has ensured too big handicap. The next defeat for Washington I have also yielded us small losses. Again.

"New Orleans Pelicans" show a remarkable game in the attack, at the expense of it the team has won three last matches. "Houston Rockets" now also on rise therefore we are waited by really spectacular game.

New-Orlean Pelicans

Finnaly "pelicans" have found the game and came to good level, the team wins as at home, and away matches therefore everything goes according to the plan. Alvin Jantri's wards have won four of five last matches that has given them the chance to be fixed on the sixth place. "New Orleans" is aimed to fight back Houston and if "Pelicans" play also, as in the previous meetings, then will be able to win.

Houston Rockets

"Rockets" have dispersed outright, the team has held four sure meetings where it could stop even "Golden State" (116-108). The most part of a season already behind, but Michael D'Antoni's wards still will fight with "warriors" for the first place therefore we are waited by an interesting outcome. Houston takes the second place in the Western Conference on victories on departure, according to "Rockets" count also on a successful outcome.

Statistics and personal meetings

"Pelicans" have won four previous house meetings.
The last personal meeting which teams had held on the Smoosie King Center arena has ended in favor of Alvin Jantri's wards (128-112).
Houston has held 22 away games from which it has won 16.

"New Orleans Pelicans" are in an excellent form now, possibly it is the best form of team for the last several seasons. With such confident game they are capable to prolong the victorious series and to stop "Houston Rockets". But for an insurance I think to take a handicap, the coefficient allows to make it.
