Free NBA Prediction:
Since the trade Milwaukee has looked stronger but the loss of Portis could factor especially through their next 13 games when they’ll face the upper echelon (teams ranked in the top 15) 11 times.
Houston meanwhile is trying to come out of a bit of a slump (3-8) with struggles, particularly on offense. Defense is keeping them in matches as their numerous appearances in clutch time highlights (36 clutch time appearances).
