    Dallas -1 at Houston Tomorrow

    When I first saw this overnight line I thought to load up on the Mavs. They are on a tear and last night's game in Denver could have gone either way (it was an awesome game to watch, that's for sure!). I see the line moving to Dallas -3 by game time. What y'all think?

    Classic stay-away game. Mavs looks very tempting but they are still depleted after that buzzer beater loss they took the other night in Denver.

    They are not one of those teams. They are a very experienced team.

    Only concern i would have for this game is this being an in-state rivalry between the 2. Sometimes it doesn't matter that 1 team is much better then the other in these type of games.

    Plus they just played about 2 weeks ago. Dallas jumped out to an early double digit lead in the 1st quarter. Houston came roaring back in the 3rd. Houston got close in the 4th but came up short. Houston can with this game straight up. Dallas at -1 might be the sucker bet of the day.

    Well line hasn't moved. Got Dallas already locked in at -1. Gotta roll with it. When I put in the bet the ML was off so gotta take points. Houston only 14-11 at home which is good but hopefully not good enough for tonight.

    Line has actually moved the other way, now a PK at some books with 70% public on the Mavs. I feel like this is some cruel joke and at game time they will announce that it's actually the Northwood PeeWee Maverick team, led by 9 year old Josh Baker, who had a season high 4 points last game.

    brooks or no brooks. rockets could still win w/o him. he's not a big part of the team as he was last year. kyle lowry stole his glory.

    Best play is no play. Dallas is the better team and should win but with Dallas getting pounded like this it makes me want to play Houston but I can't get it out my head Houston just lost to Minnesota at home.

    I like the Rockets in this one. Don't feel like explaining myself but, I think they win by 3. GL

    Use the 6 point rule to assign value for the right bet... if the game were in Dallas, then would Dallas be a JUSTIFIED 6 point favorite? If yes then the PIC/EM spread in Houston has value for Dallas... If you do NOT think that Dallas as pick/em bet has any value then the rockets are the bet... make sense?

    Actually, it would be -7. And the last time Dallas hosted the Rockets guess what the line was. Nope, not even -7, it was even less at -6.5 and yes, that was WITH Dirk.

    Not really the "trap" people making it.
