The NBA-leading Cleveland Cavaliers visit the Houston Rockets on Thursday morning in the pick of the bunch of the NBA midweek schedule. The Cavaliers are on a two-game streak but should expect a tough matchup against the Western Conference second-seed Houston Rockets, who are having a sensational season, too. Houston dropped their last game, a home loss to the Detroit Pistons on Monday night, but are still three in five. The Cavaliers, who have a 13-1 record against teams from the Western Conference this season, are the bookies' favorites to win the game. Both teams will play each other again in Cleveland on Saturday evening.
