The Rockets are playing really well at home and that will make a difference in this game. Look for the Rockets to continue to play well at home in this game here as the Celtics will have Irving lead the team, but the supporting cast he had in Philadelphia will not show up to help out as much in this game. Final Score, Houston Rockets win, but grab the points 112-108.
