They seemed to do alright in a Game 7 in Houston the year before. And last year, Utah won the first 2 games in Houston anyway--they didn't even have HCA, despite their higher seed.
Home court advantage is incredibly overrated in the playoffs, most of the time. The reason you see such a correlation between the team with HCA and the team winning the series is because the team with HCA is usually better.
