LAKERS-ROCKETS UNDER 194 should be money. 5 of the last 6 Rockets games have gone under. 4 of the last 5 Lakers games have gone under. Last 5 Rockets home games have gone under. Both Lakers road games in the playoffs went under.
Vegas believes Houston will compete tonight. The only way I see that possible is in a low scoring game. I also think that the over-under line is inflated because of the amount of points both teams scored in the last game. The line opened at 195 and is now down to 194.
These teams went to blows last game. Their definitely will be a lot of hard-nosed defense every play tonight, in particular Battier and Artest on Kobe who were completely shown up by him last game. There will be few easy baskets tonight for the Lakers. Fisher may be a factor as he sometimes can get hot from 3's and is a veteran who plays well on the road.
The first game only missed the over by .5 and the second game went way over. Two overs in a row warrant an Under call in game 3.
