HOU vs MIA Dream11 Match Prediction

 

HOU vs MIA Dream11: After dropping three straight games, Houston Rockets will look to get back to winning ways when they host Miami Heat in the inter-conference matchup in NBA at Toyota Center, on Thursday morning (IST).

Right from the beginning, the defence was the obvious problem for the Rockets, but due to its vast offensive resources, headed by none other than the giant in James harden, the Rockets outscored its opponents, and went on an 8-game winning run. But against Nikola Jokic and Denver Nuggets, Rockets found themselves crippled, both on the arc and inside the paint. The Los Angeles Lakers did a good job on Harden and his troops, while the Dallas Mavericks had too much firepower in the day and the Rockets not effective beyond James Harden.

The Rockets will score, and so will James Harden, but Doc Rovers must address his defence, because, at this moment, no lead seems enough for the Rockets.

For Miami Heat, the start to the nee season is beautiful, and the main and the immediate aim must be to keep the momentum going and rack up as many wins as possible before the all-star break.

Fantasy Picks:

James Harden: He is leading the entire NBA in points per game with an amazing average of 37.3. The 2018 NBA MVP is one of the hot candidates to win the coveted MVP this seaosn. Expect him to lead the scoring in this game.

Russell Westbrook: Not at the level he played in 2017 when he got his hands on the MVP, but the former Oklahoma City Thunder superstar is a talent with unique traits. He is averaging 22.2 points per game this season.

Kendrick Nunn: With Jimmy Butler out of this game due to an illness, Nunn will be the main man for the Heat in the offensive department. He is averaging 16.9 points per game.

Game changers:

Clint Capela: The 25-year-old Center has been in impressive form all season, and is averaging 14.6 points per game this season. He leads the team with 14.6 rebounds per game.

Bam Adebayo: heat’s big-man will have to be clinical inside the pain, for Harden and Co. are more than capable of taking the game away from them.
