Houston looks to bounce back from a 120-109 loss at Boston on Wednesday. The Rockets are 20-8 ATS after a loss, and have covered 18 of their last 26 road games. James Harden scored 30 points and dished out 12 assists against the Celtics, but he also committed seven turnovers and Boston shot 51.6 percent. Philadelphia has been playing without Joel Embiid (knee contusion) and he is doubtful for tonight's game. The 76ers defeated Milwaukee 114-109 on Wednesday while shooting 53.3 percent and Gerald Henderson came off the bench to lead the Sixers with 20 points. Philly scored 72 points in the first half against Boston, but the 76ers figure to cool off as they average 99.9 points per game and just a .436 shooting percentage. Houston won the first meeting by 27 points on Nov. 14. Take the Rockets.
