Detroit at Houston

The Houston Rockets will host the Detroit Pistons as the NBA gets into full swing. Both these teams lost their openers in close games and will be hungry for a win. There have been a lot of close games, as 9 of the 16 games played have been decided by 6 points or fewer. Houston took a harsh blow before the regular season got started, as Fred VanVleet will be out for the season with a torn ACL. The Pistons did a good job as a road dog last season, covering 56% of their games. This game looks a lot closer than the line, and I'll make the play on Detroit.
