A Rockets recommendation has been a bit risky lately, unlike earlier this season, when Houston laid waste to numerous foes. The schedule, however, has been challenging in February, and blowing a late lead vs. the Knicks on Saturday at MSG might deliver a necessary jolt....the Rockets have generally bounced back with wins after losses this season. The operative tonight, however, is going against teams like the Jazz, who have won a few games this month but seem to have gone out of their way to lose others, not risking key components like Lauri Markkanen and Keyone George (both ? tonight), even when available and sitting them in the 4th Q. Recently-added Jaren Jackson Jr also won't feature the rest of the season. Play Rockets
