Los Angeles Lakers - Brooklyn Nets

Hello.
NBA. Pistons against Rockets. We're on the road with a minus handicap for the visiting teams.
I'm not confident in Detroit because they are Detroit. Their season start is not bad, but without Chad on the team, there are no significant breakthroughs. Yes, their season start doesn't look bad and they even beat Peru, but their opponent, Ghana, was a favorable match-up. They had an unusual victory at home against the Lakers. Overall, the team looks solid at home and definitely better than on the road, but for me, that's not enough to support them.
The Rockets seem to have their sights set on the playoffs this year. They have a lot of talent, which blends well with the league's veterans. Sengun looks amazing and will probably be one of the top centers. Young talents Green and Eason also seem to have integrated well into the team. VanVleet and Brooks are also important figures and, as veterans, are very useful for the young Rockets team. They have a 5-4 season start and have only lost two of their last six games (against OKC and GSW, both of which are top teams in the West).
The handicap is not big, but in this case, I see it going to the Rockets. Good luck.

Rockets is a better team, having diverse weapons and a wide rotation, with low injuries. Pistons still lack quality and although they started the season well, they will eventually struggle, as they lack talent.
