Dallas at Houston

It is a case of too little, too late for the Rockets. They came on strong in the second half, but the NBA West is unforgiving. Despite a .500+ record overall they will be sitting out the playoffs. The Rockets were running a lot, but they have slowed the push down considerably of late, averaging less than 100 points per game over their last three. Dallas is in the same boat, failing to reach the century mark in six of their last nine, and have held nine of their last 12 opponents to 100 or less. The Mavs are just 3-8 ATS after posting 100+ in their previous game, with six straight UNDERs after a win. The dog has cashed 10 of the last 14 in this series with an 11-5-1 UNDER mark in the last 17 played here in Houston. Play on Houston and the UNDER in this one.
