The Charlotte Hornets are in a free fall. While they won last night against lowly Brooklyn in what was projected to be a double-digit win, it was anything but. The Hornets were extended to overtime, and snuck away with a four point win. The Hornets are now 5-14 in their last 19 games, and have not beaten anyone but the Brooklyn Nets since January 20. Houston is a big offensive team, and Charlotte is allowing 111 points per game in their last nine. The Rockets have scored 100+ in every game since Thanksgiving, and have been in the 120s in their last two. Too much offense by the visitor against a home team defending poorly. Give the points on Houston.
