The Rockets started this season well, following the principles of the game of new head coach Ime Udoka. However, Houston's problems became apparent - the system is still underdeveloped and needs further development. So, at the moment, the Texans are only 11th in the Western Conference, meaning they are not even in the play-in zone.
The Rockets played their last two games away, where they first confidently beat Eastern Conference outsider Charlotte (138:104) but then lost to Brooklyn (104:106).
LA Lakers
At the beginning of the championship, the Lakers, having won the in-season tournament, showed that their potential is great, and now they are starting to unlock it. The team has five wins in the previous seven games, and the gap from the top-6, the direct playoff spot, is now only a reasonable 2.5 wins.
The Lakers beat Golden State on the road in the most recent meeting. It took two overtime periods to reveal the winner - 145:144 (118:118). It should be noted that LeBron James scored 36 points in this game, made 12 assists, and set a career record for rebounds - 20.
Expert Betting Tips
The Lakers won both home games against the Rockets but lost on the road - 94:128. This meeting took place in November, when the Lakers took the floor without Anthony Davis, and probably now, there will not be such a big difference in the score, and, quite possibly, Los Angeles will win at all. However, we won't bet on the outcome here but rather bet on a TO.
