The Houston Rockets are turning their route from Charlotte to Washington tonight after they smashed the Bobcats by 92-62, conceding the least points this season thus far. Using Yao Ming in the lane effectively converts the Rockets into a special team. On the other side of the court, the Wizards beat Philadelphia, who are not in good condition despite recovering efforts by superstar Allen Iverson. Tonight, it is clear that Gilbert Arenas will be forced to take hard shots behind the hands of the Rockets’ team. Under 192 is the pick for this match for 4 units.

Indiana Pacers are traveling to LeBron’s territory for a match up with the Cavaliers tonight after they won against the Trail Blazers in a game pretty much void of defense. The Pacers easily reached 100 points, but also let the Trail Blazers score close to them, allowing easy baskets. Cleveland, after a long break, is returning to the court with the hopes of winning tonight’s game. Expecting a fruitful game for the away team, Indiana +7.5 is the pick for 4 units.

The Dallas Mavericks are waiting for the Denver Nuggets at home after they lost a valuable game against Detroit two nights ago, when they managed to score only 82 points while they allowed the Pistons’ guards to penetrate into their lane. The eratic form of German superstar Dirk Nowitzki seems to be a key factor in the teams performance. Denver, however, are sitting on a firing stone, and as they showed up with 123 points last night against Miami, they would like to steal a win from the Mavs. They can do this with sufficient effort by Carmelo Anthony, but they had better find a way to decrease the number of points they concede in a game. This team does have an advantage in the United Airlines Center, so a close game with Denver +7.5 is the pick for 4 units.
