Houston Rockets vs Portland Trail Blazers Prediction & Picks - NBA
by Stephen Abiola | in NBA Picks
Portland Trail Blazers (21-58) vs Houston Rockets (39-40) is an NBA matchup that will go down at Moda Center on Friday, August 12. The Trail Blazers are 14th in the Western Conference and have nothing much to play for. They have struggled this season after the departure of Damian Lillard to the Bucks. But they have improved lately after securing back-to-back victories against the Hornets and the Wizards. Also out of the postseason, the Rockets outsmarted the Magic on Tuesday to snap their five-game skid. Fred VanVleet bagged a season-high 37 points, while Smith Jr. contributed 23. A similar performance from the duo could make the Rockets too hot to handle for the Trail Blazers.

Our Houston Rockets vs Portland Trail Blazers Prediction
This is a battle between two teams with bruised egos. The Rockets have lost three of their last matches on the road, and nothing suggests otherwise at Moda Center. But the Trail Blazers have also been a bit inconsistent at home. Their previous home match ended in a 107-124 loss against the Celtics. It has been a turbulent season for them, probably down to proper generational transitions. For the Rockets, it’s vital not to underestimate this opponent and impose themselves, especially offensively. Our prediction for the Trail Blazers vs the Rockets: The Trail Blazers to win.
