I think the Lakers should be a little afraid of Houston. Eventually they’d probably grind the Rockets down with size and rebounding, but I’d give the Rockets’ high-variance game a puncher’s chance. They seem like the type of team that could lose a couple games by 30+ points and still pull out four wins.
I think the Clips match up a lot better with Houston than the Lakers do.
