thoughts on Detroit / Houston

I like DET+3-3.5 or as many as I can get.
There hasn't been much talk here about this matchup, I think because of the tourneys.....but I'm suprised because:

INDY gave HOU fits last night....DET will give them a Hm loss.
DET 6-0 ATS last 6 vs HOU, 2 games being @HOU where DET went SU. Last meet @Hm DET smoked HOU by 12.....DET has been excellent ATS terror on the rd, don't think HOU home ct is worth like 15.5 pts. Better team....starting off up by 3-3.5!

This line has trap written all over it. I like Houston tonight for a few units.

Rollin with DET on the daily parlay contest but not sure about actual $'s yet.

Yeah, you could say DET might be looking forward to SA, but I don't believe DET works like that. They will "play" this game.

GL to you as well Checkerboard....unless you do ride w/HOU....lol.

I like Detroit on the ML +165 guys.

Very very tough game to get a read on, I agree. Detroit has won 9 out of 11 vs Houston, including the last 2 at Houston. But Houston of course has all their big guns in now, which they haven't had most of the time over the years, and Det will need Billups (probable) back in the lineup.

It would seem that Houston is just rolling and the 3 or 4 points isn't a lot at home, but we've seen a lot of this recently, where certain teams do very well on the road against other certain teams (LAC at Chi, and Minn at Sac, two clear examples from the last few days).

So I'd say the play here is Det, but personally I'll be passing.

I rolled with it.....& ate all my words big time. Luckily just a small play....one of the few DET games I play & they fail......

At least the NUGGS covered my loss here. Still screwed my daily parlay pik though.......
