Milwaukee at Houston

After playing six in a row at home, Milwaukee heads out on the road to a tough place to play. The Bucks are on a nice run, beating up a lot of weak Eastern teams but they have failed to cover four of their last five against the stronger Western Conference. Houston is home and on a tear - a 12-2 SU, 11-2-1 ATS run. The Rockets come off a 125-113 win at home against the Denver Nuggets, with James Harden scoring at least 32 points in 13 straight games. They are without Chris Paul, but a deep team having won seven of the eight games Paul has missed. The Rockets are on a 12-3-1 spread run at home. Houston opened as the dog and the underdog is 9-4 ATS in the last 13 meetings. Play Houston.
