Lakers at Rockets

Craig Trapp had a solid night last night sweeping his premium picks going 3-0 with a NBA, NHL, and CFB prediction. Tonight Craig has two large picks in both hockey and NBA don’t miss either one as both are 5 star winners and GUARANTEED to win!

LAL -1.5: A rematch from the Western Conference Finals will feature two teams that are both 3-1 so far. Lakers went to overtime to beat a very strong OKC team last night and are looking to once again beat a short-handed Rockets team. Injuries to McGrady and Yao has this Houston team playing shorthanded once more. That has not stopped Houston as they have played solid all year. Problem is tonight they go against former Rocket Artest who when motivated can be a monster. Tonight I see the Lakers allowing Artest get his 20 points and 10 boards displaying why they should have paid the big bucks to him. The only problem with the Lakers is trying to guard PG Brooks who gave them fits in the postseason last year. But in the end the Lakers are too long and speedy for a depleted Rockets team. Lakers win by at least8 points here.
