Houston at Dallas

The Houston Rockets now have a great inside-out punch when they added Dwight Howard to compliment James Harden. It took a bit of time to make adjustments, but things are rolling right now for this team, who has won three straight and have averaged 114.3 points per game in their last four. Dallas is 5-0 at home, but on average has been a -7 point favorite in those games, and I don't think the talent matches the team's early success. They are just 1-5 ATS in their last six at home vs. a team with a winning road record, which is a better indicator to me than their 5-0 home record against lesser competition. The Rockets have more answers and a bigger upside, and a line held down by Dallas' early success at home. Play on the dog in this one and back the Rockets.
