    And the rockets is the team with the toughest schedule so far this season. Also worth mentioning that the two first east teams on the list have had the 8th and 12th toughest schedule so far.

    Not sure why Vegas would favor the Nets. I guess just because we're playing in Brooklyn? I feel like the Rockets are the better team despite having a lesser record. East is weak sauce.

    Nets playing at home is exactly why. Vegas always does this with home teams.

    Home team usually gets a boost of around 3 points. The rockets are also much better at home than on the road.

    I would say the Rockets would be favored by 4-5 if the game was in Houston.


    The Rockets are also 8-2 in their last 10 against the spread.

    Dude you clearly mean "another 60-75 pts +40 game" as our backcourt duo they cant have a 30 pts game, that would mean 10 pts and 20 pts apiece or 15 pts and 15 pts together

    Indeed.

    Definitely wasn't looking forward to seeing Delfino starting at Power Forward.

    so you admitted you dislike lin. how could you dislike a rox player? it's beyond my understand. he is a rox player, right now still playing for rox. you're not a real rox fan. if you were, you wouldn't say you don't like a rox player. you can say you don't like LOFs. i don't have problem with it.

    The Rocket are considered as "youngest team" in the NBA, after the trade of our bench, did we become even more " the youngest Team in the NBA" or do we golt "older" ??

    anyone can clarify that?

    The East is weak, but this is going to be a very tough game to win. Brooklyn on a four game winning streak and playing at home. Also, this may be the game we really miss PPat, Morris, and TD. We got players from the Kings that aren't ready to play, so the Rockets are shorthanded. Rockets won a huge game against the Thunder playing shorthanded, can they win again tonight? It's going to be tough. We can't really expect Harden and Lin to duplicate what they did against the Thunder. My hope is that someone like D-Mo is going to have a big game, and we can pull out the win.
