Charlotte at Houston

The Rockets are impossible to play against right now, on fire with 20 straight wins. They have beaten the last eight teams at home by double-digits, and 12 of the last 13. They are on an amazing 17-1 ATS run as well overall. Charlotte has been bad on the road with just six wins, and against the .500+ teams have managed a 1-13 SU record, going 3-10 ATS. They have dropped 11 of the 14 by double-digits, and in the 13 losses the average losing margin has been 18.1 ppg. Staying with the Rockets for now. We also like the first-half UNDER here as the Rockets are holding opponents to 42.3 first-half points per game at home and they are getting stronger (41.2 over their last five). Charlotte is 31-17 UNDER in the first half coming off a road loss the past two seasons and 19-9 UNDER off a blowout loss by 15+ points. This season they are 15-7 UNDER in the first half after allowing 105+ in their last game. Houston and the first-half UNDER here.
