Houston Rockets

Current form
The Rockets have been playing well this season, and the second place in the Western Conference confirms this. The team hoped not to delay the first series of the playoffs, but plans have changed.
Houston started with an 85-95 loss, and played terribly offensively, which is atypical for the team. The second game went better — the wards of Ime Udoka won back (109:94). We should especially mention Jaylen Greene with his 38 points. Then the Rockets lost twice in a row, but returning home helped them win (131-116). Fred Vanvleet showed a decent game and was the most active on the court. There is an important match ahead, but on the road.

After the last defeat, Steph Curry and the company have clearly come to their senses. Golden State underestimated their opponent in the last meeting, but we will probably see another team dominating their court. The Warriors understand the need to close the series, especially at home.
Houston got ready and showed the class. The team looked cohesive, which helped reduce the gap in the series. The Rockets will try to even the score, but the away game may be the main problem, because the opponent is more motivated than ever. In our opinion, the guests will not be able to withstand the pressure.
Our prediction is a Golden State victory with a handicap of (-4) points in 1.73
Bet on the total
