Houston at Orlando

Premium Pick

The Houston Rockets are 41-19 on the season. Arguably, no win was as big as their win last night at home vs. Miami, where they took down a hot Miami team 106-103. This is a very tricky spot for the Rockets, however, as they must pack up that emotion and energy, or what is left to it, to take on a horrible Orlando team that will not get their attention. To add to their dilemma, they face Indiana in their next game, so a no-show here seems highly likely. The Magic own just four road wins all season, but have been competitive here at home where they are 15-15 on the season. They also own wins here against Oklahoma City, and Indiana. This is a bad spot for Houston, and Orlando has shown the ability to take down unprepared elite teams at home. Play Orlando on the moneyline.
