ATL -8.5 2H x2
HOU TT un45.5 2H x2
Hawks already beat Houston on their home court with Harden and Howard playing. Now they are playing on one day more of rest than Houston who just came off that intense Sunday showcase with Cleveland. I'm thinking they come out in the 3rd quarter and get right back in this one with some good defense and ball movement on offense. Coach Budz will make some halftime adjustments and gets his guys going. After these guys had 9 TOs in the 1st qtr, they had just one in the 2nd qtr. There's only so much that the Rockets can do with Terry, Prigioni and Brewer all forced into big minutes tonight. They aren't even playing with a true center, although that doesn't mean too much in the NBA in this day and age. Regardless, I think we see the Hawks come back and win this one.
