10* BOOKIEKILLER - 288-246 (+$23,000) NBA!
(NBA) San Antonio vs. Houston,
Total: 228.00 | -107.00 Over
Result: Loss
This is a 10* TOTAL BOOKIEKILLER on the OVER Spurs/Rockets.

These two teams have been inovled in several lower-scoring games of late, but all signs finally point to more of a wide-open shootout in my opinion here on Tuesday.

These two teams need wins. Neither will be in the playoffs though.

The Spurs are 13-48, including only 6-27 on the road, while the Rockets are 26-34, including 20-10 at home.

The Spurs are playing well right now, winners of two straight, scoring 259 points in the process. They'll now look to avenge a 93-82 loss here in December, and note that San Antonio has in fact seen the total go OVER the number in seven of its last ten in trying to avenge a road loss vs. an opponent in which it was held to 89 or fewer points in.

Houston broke a three-game slide with a 118-109 win over Phoenix. The Rockets have seen the total go UNDER the number in five straight, but that's significant for us to take note of here, as Houston has seen the total eclipse the posted number in four of its last five after playing to five more or more straight UNDERS in a row.

Look for these two bottom-feeders to play little defense this time around and expect this total to fly OVER the number sooner, rather than later.

Good luck, NP
