- Houston is a terrible Offense and will be neutralized in this game, promoting an outcome of a dominant win coming for Cleveland.
- Cleveland is a good defensive team that should make it nearly impossible to score 100 without Kevin Porter Jr.
- Mitchell has been out and is questionable to play this game, hurting the efficiency shooting for Cleveland, but the Cavs are a deep team that has been able to generate points and a faster pace without Donovan in the lineup, a more 'loose playstyle"
- Rockets are on a back to back which brings in a fatigue factor into this matchup of mismatch teams.
