The Houston Rockets are looking to finish the year strong after clawing back to the No. 3 seed. Can they hold onto that spot and potentially move up in the last few games in the last month of the regular season?
The Rockets have a nice mixture of games that will prepare them for the playoffs and games that should be easy wins. With five games remaining, the Rockets can max out with a record 54-28, a little bit under the preseason over/under by Vegas of 56.5 wins. However, it’s been an even-tougher Western Conference than anyone could’ve predicted and no one will hit 60 wins.
