Picking the Houston Rockets Over the Miami Heat
(Odds for the Houston Rockets ML is currently around 1.50.)
The Houston Rockets are on a roll heading into this game with a 5 game winning streak. The Miami Heat are on the opposite end of the spectrum where they are currently on a 4 game losing streak. The Houston Rockets won the first meeting and I like them to win the second as well. The only thing that gives me pause is that this is a back to back road game for the Houston Rockets. Still the Rockets are 19-7 on the road and I like going with trends...
My pick is the Houston Rockets ML.
(I am currently in the negative with my picks. Game starts in about 4 hours 16 minutes.)

Houston won 109-101 (Final). Rockets only half a game back of Golden State Warriors in the standings now. Rockets also own the tie-breaker. Home field in the playoffs would be HUGE for the Rockets.
