Memphis Grizzlies were on the run of seven wins in a row until the last game when they lost 134-116 on the road vs Indiana Pacers. The home team played great in the first quarter, so they had a 37-27 lead after twelve minutes. After the second period, the lead was up to 21 points. Guests tried their best in the second half, but they were never close to getting back into the game. Dillon Brooks was the best for the Grizzlies with 25 points, while Desmond Bane added 16 points.

Houston Rockets won 6 of the last 7 matches. In the previous game, they lost 104-87 on the road vs Oklahoma City Thunder. The home side played surprisingly well, so they had 19 points lead already in the middle of the second quarter. Houston Rockets whole night struggled with field goal shot (38%). With that kind of offence, they can't win against anyone in the NBA. Eric Gordon was the best for Houston Rockets with 22 points, while Victory Oladipo added three points less. 

Houston Rockets disappointed last night against Oklahoma City Thunder, so now I expect them to lose also against Memphis Grizzlies.
