We finally got a pick on the NBA and we're all over the Houston Rockets tonight.

The Warriors are seeing 80% of the action as a -1 favorite and the oddsmakers aren't moving this line at all (beyond opening at Rockets -1). We have caught a book or two offering Houston +1.5. Pay Per Heads can customize the line on this game accordingly.

Houston has a half point better rating on the NBA Betting Power Ratings.

The line isn't moving despite the Warriors being 10-4 Against The Spread in the last 14 meetings in Houston.

Current NBA Record: 11-3-1 (78.6%)

Again, play is on the Rockets +1.5.

And here is the best part: They have the ability to make double the income than when they were putting in those 60+ hours a week.
