Miami Heat – Houston Rockets – Betting Tips 08.02.2018

Miami Heat
Miami have lost their last four games (Cavs, 76ers, Pistons, Magic), which is why their position in the top eight teams in the East is threatened. They have a 29:25 record and are in seventh place, but only thanks to a large number of discarded games they have a certain lead over the 76ers and the Pistons. It’s hard to find a reason for the failures and now comes a very dangerous opponent who has won the first duel in Texas.
The last four defeats conceded Miami just behind (from 2 to 6 points). Orlando has injured center player Olynyk while one of Waiter’s best shooters has been absent for some time. Eight Miami players scored double-digit scores on average and are led by Goran Dragic’s All-Star with 17.1 points per game.

Houston Rockets
Unlike Miami, the Rockets currently have a positive series of results. Before the double duel against the Nets and the Heats, they had a series of four wins in a row, which they have secured their second table position in the West. So far, they have scored 38 wins and conceded only 13 defeats while out 18: 7. They play very safe against the teams from the East and have so far won 16 wins in 21 matches. This includes the win against Miami, when they won 99:90. The duel was decided in the last quarter that won the Rockets 28:22. Miami played without Dragic, but the Rockets has center player Whiteside problems and all the winger of the Rockets have failed.
That was their first game of the season, which they won with less than 100 points scored. In three such games before, they have lost. The team’s best player is James Harden, who is also the best player in the West this week. In three games he had a cut of 34.7 points, 10.3 assists, 6 rebounds and 2.3 steals. He’s great with Chris Paul, while substitute Gordon is a great joker. At the moment he has problems with his back injury.
