After the first quarter of Game 6, the Rockets appeared unbeatable. They led by 17 and were playing inspired defense. Then the second half arrived and Houston had no answers, scoring nine fourth-quarter points en route to a humiliating 29-point loss. Chris Paul stayed home and got treatments on his hamstring so I do expect him to play. Houston is a very good team and now at home in game 7 where they are 41-9 straight-up this season. The Rockets have covered the spread in their last two games at Toyota Center, including a resounding 127-105 Game 2 victory. I like the home underdog here on Monday night with the Rockets as I expect James Harden the MVP to come up big.
