(Odds for the Houston Rockets ML is currently around 1.83.)
This isn't an easy game for the Houston Rockets despite the disparity in win-loss records. The Houston Rockets have the best record in the NBA while the Utah Jazz are fighting for the last playoff spot. Look beneath the surface though and the Utah Jazz have been one of the best teams in the NBA recently. The Utah Jazz are 12-1 in their last 13 games. This is a back to back road game for the Houston Rockets while the Jazz got to rest at home on Sunday. On the other hand the Houston Rockets are 3-0 so far against the Jazz this season. Rockets are also riding a 12 game winning streak while having to look over their shoulder at the pursuing Golden State Warriors. I think that added motivation will propel the Rockets find a way to extend their win streak to 13 games...
My pick is the Houston Rockets ML.
(I am currently in the negative with my picks. Game starts in about 3 hours 13 minutes.)
