Betting on the Houston Rockets
Last in the West, the Rockets are not even close to being a good team; however, they got a little bit of good pace in the last few games. They have recorded two wins –something they have not done since last season.
What’s more, Jalen Green has played very well in the Rockets’ two wins. Against Atlanta, when they won 128-122, he scored 30 points; and against Oklahoma, when they won 118-105, he scored 28 points. If he is well enough for this matchup, Houston has some hope for improvement.
They kick off a four-game road trip away from home against Denver. This positive inertia will help them, but it is difficult for them to beat one of the best local teams in the league, which is also on a good pace.
Betting on the Denver Nuggets
One of the best teams in the league, as we mentioned, is also on a hot streak. With Nikola Jokić and Aaron Gordon pulling the team’s strings, they recorded two wins in a row. The two have scored almost 50% of the points in recent games. Therefore, Denver is a serious candidate to take the win.
The team struggled a bit when they played against Oklahoma: they won the matchup in overtime 131-126. In that game, Jokić scored 39 points; against the Clippers, the team won by 114-104, where Aaron Gordon scored 29 points, and Nikola Jokić was spectacular under the boards with 13 rebounds.
At home, they have only lost two games, curiously one was to the other team at the very bottom: the Pistons. Denver is a great team, but they tend to take things for granted, which costs them games. This team’s main problem is that if they perform at their best, it is complicated for them to be defeated; but if they go out on a bad day, they are very weak.
JefeBet Prediction
The Houston Rockets has shown improvement, but it will be very difficult for them to beat the Nuggets at home, as they come into these two games giving their best. Unfortunately for Houston, their hot streak may come to an end in Denver.
The Nuggets learned from their mistakes, and a loss like the one against the Pistons may not happen again. At home, they can’t relax, and the Rockets will pay the price.
Prediction: Denver Nuggets Moneyline.
