Houston Rockets Form
Houston head to Boston having just beaten Eastern Conference leaders Cleveland in back-to-back games.
The Rockets have now won eight of their last 10 games, starting this good run with a 119-115 home win against the Los Angeles Lakers and a 135-112 victory over Washington.
They then won consecutive with meetings with Memphis, 119-115 and 120-118, before heading to Denver for a 128-108 win over the Nuggets.
Houston cooled off briefly as they sandwiched a 125-103 win in Portland with defeats to Sacramento, 132-127, and Detroit, 107-96, but they ended last week on a high.
The Rockets first downed the Cavaliers 109-108 at home, before heading to Cleveland to register a 135-131 victory.
Boston Celtics Form
Boston return home from a successful road trip that saw them win three of their four games on their travels.
The Celtics went into that road games on an inconsistent form, having not strung together victories since the start of the year.
They went out on the road on the back of a 119-115 overtime defeat at home to Atlanta, but rebounded in California.
Boston blew out Golden State, 125-85 to start the trip, before heading to Los Angeles to take down the Clippers in overtime, 117-113.
The Celtics failed to make it three wins in a row as they fell to the Lakers, 117-96, but they did rebound immediately with a 122-107 victory in Dallas.
Verdict
Houston had a rough time against Boston earlier this month, but we still like their chances.
They are the more consistent spread bet and they just produced a couple of superb wins over contenders Cleveland, so give us the Rockets and the free buckets.
