Our Houston Rockets vs Dallas Mavericks Prediction
Fearless Forecast: The Rockets are my pick to cover the -8.5 point spread. Dallas had a rough shooting night against the Thunder, and should expect another tough day on offense against the No.2 defensive team in the NBA. The Rockets are averaging 109.7 points allowed per game this season, second only to the Thunder in this category. Houston is 5-1 ATS in its last 6 games and 11-2 ATS in its last 13 games on the road. Dallas is 4-2 against the spread in their last 6 games, but the team is facing a tough task against an elite squad on Saturday.
