The Houston Rockets and Boston Celtics, two elite teams in their respective conferences, clash on Monday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The pregame narrative:<\/strong> The Rockets are red-hot, winning eight of their last 10 games and I want in. I’m buying a few extra points on Houston’s spread and backing player props on Jalen Green and Amen Thompson in this +310 SGP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check out my Rockets vs. Celtics same-game parlay predictions for Jan. 27.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Parlay: Rockets +9.5 + Green over 2.5 assists + Thompson over 25.5 points\/rebounds (+310)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rockets +9.5 <\/strong>(-225):<\/strong> The Rockets have grabbed the NBA’s attention, holding a 30-14 record and the second seed in the Western Conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That includes being one of the better teams against the spread, holding a 26-17-1 record to this point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Conversely, Boston has the fifth-worst ATS record (18-27-1) indicating that the spread is normally too high for the reigning champs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Rockets are very good on the road, too. They hold a 15-6 away record which is better than the Celtics 15-8 home record.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Houston did lose 109-86 at home to Boston on Jan. 3 but that was after a tough stretch of games for the Rockets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I expect a better-rested side to go into TD Garden looking to get some revenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other SGP legs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Green over 2.5 assists (-141):<\/strong> The fourth-year pro is averaging the lowest assists per game (2.8) since his rookie season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But you wouldn’t know it looking at his past results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Green is averaging 3.6 assists over his last 10 games
    <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • He’s 8-2 against this line during that span.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    He’s consistently hitting this mark and I believe the Rockets will gameplan to pass more in hopes of breaking down an elite Celtics’ defence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Green recorded nine total assists in his recent two-game series with the Cleveland Cavaliers, another top Eastern Conference side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Thompson over 25.5 points\/rebounds (-107): <\/strong>Thompson is a fun player to bet on because he has an insanely high motor and plays a load of minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The second-year pro shoots 55.6% from the field and averages 21.3 points\/rebounds per game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    That’s much lower than what’s needed tonight but if we look at his recent results, it will become evident why this line is still very much attainable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Thompson is averaging 17.7 PPG and 11.8 RPG since Jan. 1.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
        \n
      • He’s 6-3 against this line over those games.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        It helped that he played 35-plus minutes in eight of those contests and 40-plus in six.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Boston is a bad matchup for basically all players but Thompson has proven he can fill the stat sheet against any team in the association.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
