    ...because it's about creating a market of value with popular betting favorites and has nothing to do with actual outcomes of games.

    ...a little worried that this is a trap game for Houston

    - 2nd night of a back to back
    - dismantled the last two teams fairly easily
    - Lillard comes back fresh after several days of rest from the concussion protocol
    - playing a significantly bigger/more physical team than last night
    - likely gotta play two bigs more than in past games and our "big" bigs aren't exactly offensive savants so that changes the offense
    - they clean up the boards fairly well
    - they got a lot of smart vet players - sometimes those players can take advantage of youth.

    .....it would be a strong win though if we manage to pull it out. I do think a bit of our early season record/stats are about the schedule so beating a team like Milwaukee would make a statement because they are better than their record would have you believe because of injuries to date.

    Let Giannis get 50. Shut down everyone else.

    It probably won't make him decide one way or another, but make this game part of the pitch to get Giannis to at least think about what the Rockets are building.

    The Bucks have a bad record but you cant discount Giannis and Dame. This feels like a trap game.

    Those losses makes the team realize they can't just coast.

    Looks like we are 4-11 on the second night of a back-to-back over the past two seasons.

    b2b away games while Bucks are rested? When we win this, I'm a full believer we're going all the way.
