re: New Orleans Pelicans @ Houston Rockets | Rockets win 130-123

I like the Rockets by about 15. The line as of this morning was 13, I think.

Bottom line is that the Pels don't defend enough. They'd need everyone on the Rockets to go ice cold to have a shot. Last night the Pels' offense was rolling and they still managed to give up 40 in the third to the Sixers and blow an 11 point halftime lead.

No lead is safe for the Pels due to how poorly they defend at times and how they manage to completely abandon all forms of ball movement for quarters at a time.
