    Cavs are the hottest team in the league and Kenny Atkinson is an amazing coach. Rox are def not favored in this one esp after they lost to the Pistons.

    That definitely gives the Rockets a better shot at winning.

    Having only one big puts a lot more pressure on JA, especially since Alpi is going to try to get him into foul trouble. That being said, the Cavs are a complete team and are extremely good even without Mobley. It's gonna be a tough one, but I trust Ime to have our guys ready for battle!

    Rockets fans today: "Rockets are healthy and the Cavs really banged up. That is great news and this will be a win."

    Rockets fans tomorrow: "Can't beat both the Cavs and the officials. Jalen most definitely has an injury that is affecting his play, that hurt "us." Rockets are still the bestest team ever. This loss means nothing."

    Good test tonight at how they respond to a bad effort game against one of the better teams in the NBA. Need a focused Rockets for this home at home.

    Cavs have an athletic mobile big so we already know Alpi is getting cooked.

    Must win to make up for that Pistons disaster. We know we're losing to them in Cleveland next game so gotta get this one at home.

    Last time he played against JA he did fine, 24 points, 8 rebounds, 6 assists on 11 for 20 shooting.
