Rockets vs 76ers Recent Meetings
Prediction
Give me the Rockets in this one. Houston has been playing well of late, winning four of their last five and getting contributions from a lot of different people, showing off their depth. Philly actually has a winning record on the road, but at home, they are just 11-12 SU and have lost three of their last four at home. Over those last four games, leading scorer Tyrese Maxey is shooting just 37 percent from the floor and 25 percent from beyond the arc. This is the first meeting of the season between these teams and it was Houston who swept the series last year, winning both by seven points. Give me the Rockets here.
Pick: Rockets -2.5
