The coefficient is worth the effort, the Lakers have appeared to improve lately and have completely fixed their defense, which looked very poor at the beginning of the season. With the addition of Finney-Smith to the team, I believe they will continue to improve. The Rockets do not seem as confident lately, with 3 out of 4 losses at home, and their only win against the struggling Mavericks. They have also suffered losses to surprising teams such as the Heat, Timberwolves, and were down 23 points against Boston without Horford and Brown on the court. The loss of Jabari Smith Jr. will also hurt them, as Jeff Green is the only one filling in at the 4 position, and knowing that the Lakers are strong at playing through the post, this could be a problem for the Rockets.
