Command Analysis
Two days ago, Houston finally put an end to their losing streak. Rockets secured an away victory over Dallas. A brilliant performance from Jalen Green and Kevin Porter brought a success to Houston (101:92).
But that victory didn't help the team to climb out from the bottom of the Western conference standings. Rockets have won just three matches in the current season. Rockets are struggling around their rim, their defensive game is a disaster.
At the start it seemed like another disappointing season for Indiana. Rick Carlisle's men got off to an unsuccessful start. But after one month team started to play much better. Pacers are in a superb form now.
Indiana secured four victories in five latest matches. Rick Carlisle's men suffered the only defeat in a game against Denver (119:122). After that, team recorded two wins, beating Toronto (118:104) and Charlotte (125:113).

Tip and bets
Houston Rockets are not looking so hopeless in home matches. They lost to Los Angeles Clippers and to the Memphis Grizzlies by just eight and seven points respectively. We feel that it won't be an easy game for Indiana.
Our prediction - Handicap (+7) points for Houston
In 3 of 4 latest away matches Indiana managed to score more than 120 points. We are expecting another high-scoring outing against Houston. Rockets are too vulnerable on defense.
Our second bet is on total over 231,5 points
