T.M. Selection: Rockets (8*).

Afre five straight victories, I think the Hawks come out flat here vs. the lowly Rockets. ATL has played great since the All Star break, but a letdown seems imminent for sure. The Rockets are in the midst of a 16-game losing streak, so their resolve won't be questioned here. Houston is getting healthier as well. The Hawks win streak is unrealistic, and the longer this Rockets losing streak continues, it also becomes less and less likely to continue. Will the home side punch an outright here? It's the perfect opponent to do so against, but in the end I'm grabbing the points.

T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY.
