NBA Basketball Picks – Raptors @ Rockets – Who Covers The Spread

Tuesday, March 3rd, 2009

FiveStarPick.com is back in action today as we give our members ATS winners in two NBA games.  The focus of this preview is tonight’s game between the Toronto Raptors and the Houston Rockets.  Las Vegas sportsbooks list the Rockets as 8-point favorites with the total hovering around 197.

The Raptors will be wrapping up a three-game road trip against Houston tonight and trying to avoid three straight losses.  The Raptors lost to the Suns, 133-113, last Friday and was crushed by Dallas 109-98 on Sunday.  The Raptors are 9-17 against the Western Conference this year, but they did beat Houston 94-73 at home January 2nd as a five-point dog.  Houston shot only 34% from the field in that loss against a very weak Toronto defense.

The Rockets are without Tracy McGrady as he is out for the season with a knee injury, but since his departure, Houston is a solid 7-1 SU and 5-3 ATS.  Houston is 24-6 at home this year, but just 14-15 ATS. The Raptors are 11-22 SU and 13-18 ATS on the road. The home team has won three straight games in this series by double digits.
