Melo is questionable. Going to test out his ankle before the game. With Lin returning to the Garden i'm sure he is going to be pumped up for the game. I'm a big Knicks fan and watch every game but I just took Rockets +10 for 2.5 units. Not seeing them blowing them out I think the line is too big. If you plan on taking Rockets i'd get the bet in now before Melo's status is announced. If he sits i'm assuming Knicks will not be as heavily favored.
