The New Orleans Pelicans have little to play for the rest of the way out. They are 17-45 on the season, as they host the Rockets tonight. Houston is 37-25 on the season, currently good for the #5 seed in the playoffs. The Rockets have dropped 3 straight games as their offense has grown cold. Houston is averaging just 111ppg during the stretch, and over their last 11 games they have shot 43% or less in more than half of them. New Orleans will be looking toward next year's roster, with players getting opportunities, which could take away from some offense, as well as being a bit better defensively as players showcase their talents. I like the UNDER in this one
