T.M. Selection: Rockets/Hawks UNDER.

I am on the under in the Houston Rockets vs Atlanta Hawks game on Monday. The Rockets have lost 2 games in a row after going on a 7 game win streak but this is not a good team this year and they only have 8 wins all year. I think that the Rockets are a bit burnt out from stringing all of those wins together, especially since their last win was over the Nets with Harden returning to town. The Rockets are also bad on the road this year, they just won 7 games in a row but most of them were at home because they only have 1 win in 8 road games this year. They have only put up 110+ points in 3 of their road games this year and I think that they are going to struggle to put up points on the Hawks here. The Hawks are a very good home team and they have lost quite a few games lately so I think they will be looking for an easy bounce back game. The Hawks haven't looked great on offense either in their games lately. They are missing some of their starters in this game and lately they haven't been scoring a lot at home, but they have been playing better defense there. The Hawks have only scored 110+ points in 1 of their previous 4 games and they failed to reach 100 points in 2 of those games. They didn't let the opposing team score 100+ points in 2 of those games at home too. I think this is going to be a game that the Hawks win in a blowout and I don't think that the Rockets are even going to reach 100 points in this game. I like the under in this game.

T.M. Prediction: 112-92 Hawks.
