This will be a duel team with very
poor form and after the match of the teams will interrupt a series of
defeats. There is still no real answer why the Rockets badly entered the new season. Portland was expected to be worse than last year because they lost the most players.
It is really incomprehensible bad form to Houston at the start of the new season, because only four wins in eleven matches is a very poor performance for one of the best teams in the West, at least when it comes to the roster. At home are even worse, as in seven matches in front of their fans recorded five defeats. Cast in "batches", even at the beginning of the season imported three defeats, after which they celebrated in four consecutive match and then went into the black series that is still ongoing. The last four matches they have lost and what's worse, these were mostly convincing defeat rezultovani lot of bad play. Thus, for instance. defeated by Boston with 95: 111, after the Celtics allowed the series 32:13 in the third period.What conspicuous is desperate game in Houston defensive player, as his opponents even allow 108.5 points per game. In addition, they lose a lot of balls, so Harden has even 4.8, 3.1 and Howard Lawson 2.5 turnovers on average. Rockets are missing several points and Howard Lawson, but certainly a much better shot Harden, who has only 37.2 percent field-goal attempts, of which only 26 percent for the three points. Against Portland are favorites, toys are better, and it will be an interesting duel Harden on one side and Lillard on the other.

Probable lineups Houston: Harden, Lawson, Ariza, Jones, Howard
Portland is even worse shape than Houston, because they have lost the last six games (four of them on the side). Now the effect of 4 wins and 8 losses, and out of their rooms have just two wins and five defeats. We pointed out that during the summer were left without most of the top players, and they decided to build a new team around a great quarterback Lillard. That is why one of them and can not immediately expect good results, so it will be realistic to Portland fights possibly for eighth place and time in the play-off. Sometimes it seems that they are easily released most of their starters, especially Aldridge and Batum, but it is obvious that the decision leading people after a bad play-off appearances was to approach the reorganization of the team.Portland is no more deadly five who would distribute the points and were dangerous from all positions. Now the game depends on the performance bekovskog duo Lillard - McCollum, who is averaging 25.3 and 20.4 points per game. Lillard is the true leader of the team in most statistical categories, but again, he needs a quality playing squad around him to Portland again be competitive, especially in the West. Portland should be high-quality and dangerous fives, especially offensively, because Plumlee, Kaman, Davis and Leonard are not so dangerous against Howard and other senior players in opposing teams.
Probable lineups Portland: Lillard, McCollum, Aminu, Kaman, Plumlee
It is high time that Houston began to get matches. Portland opponent is appropriate to end the series of defeats, so the Rockets engaged up should note certain victory.
Type: Houston (-7.0)
Stake: 4/10
Result: 108 - 103 (OT) Lost
