Result:
LOSS

Do you really think James Harden will miss his first 15 field goal attempts again? Harden was 3-of-20 from the floor, but Houston still won Game 3, 104-101, as an underdog. Stick a fork in Utah, down 3-0. The Jazz offense ranked #17 in the league in scoring, #26 in free throw shooting, and shot 41.6% in Game 3, including 65.8% from the charity stripe, missing 13 freebies! After the All-Star break, the talented Rockets (26-15 ATS against winning teams) had the league's best record (21-5) and are on a 9-1-1 ATS run against the Western Conference. Houston is top 11 in the NBA in scoring and free throw shooting, while the defense is vastly improved, top 10 in points allowed and second in three-point defense. They've held Utah to 27-of-106 from three-point range in this series. The Rockets are on a 6-1 ATS run at Utah, plus 27-12 ATS on the road when playing their sixth or less game in 14 days. Play Houston.
