The coefficients reflect market expectations, but the real picture may turn out to be much more complicated

Command Analysis

In the second half, the Pacers took the lead in the third quarter, but the Rockets managed to respond with a 12-2 run in the end and held on to win.

Tip and bets

TipHouston with a handicap (-3.5) points

1.74

Houston hosts Boston at Toyota Center on February 5, and it will be a test of strength for both teams. The Rockets are in great shape — they recently beat Indiana without Durant, dominating through Sengoon, and now the hosts are on the rise after three consecutive wins, although they have been without VanVleet and Adams all season, plus Finney-Smith will definitely miss, and Durant is questionable. Boston had just dealt with Dallas, Brown and Pritchard were on fire, but without Tatum and with some personnel difficulties, the team looks a little vulnerable offensively. In face-to-face meetings, Houston has already beaten Boston in November, taking revenge for previous seasons. The domestic courage, the power of Sengong under the shield, the recent victory in the face-to-face meeting and the problems of the guests with injuries to key players create a good basis for betting on the hosts.

Our prediction is that Houston will win by a handicap of (-3.5) points in 1.74
