LA Clippers vs Houston Rockets Prediction
The Houston Rockets are looking like a young team that’s starting to figure things out with wins in 7 of their last 9 games and that includes a win over these Clippers on Wednesday. While the Clippers have hovered around a .500 record, they’re still undermanned, and it makes it tough to back them against good teams or on the road in general. I’d need more points to consider the Clippers. The Rockets are starting to roll and are a team worth keeping an eye on. I’ll lay the reasonable chalk.
