    Default Utah vs Houston

    Go for Utah minus the handicap? They should beat Houston IMO, what do you think?

    Should doesn't mean they will. That game screams no value as of right now, but that may change closer to tip.

    They probably will close it out next game. Should of last game though.

    We'll see, totally doubt it though.

    Utah is a better team and will try real hard to close this one out, especially at home.

    Utah has a massive HCA. Take the Jazz ML to be safe.

    About half of their home losses this year have come to the Rockets who almost won the last game as well at Utah.

    Utah's playing for a quicker rest. They don't want to go back on the road. Moneyline for sure on them, don't know about the spread. When a team is playing in a "win or go home" situation, it usually goes down to the wire.

    I would not feel comfortable with laying the points.

    Ever since Rafer's been back, they haven't played as well or been able to really put Houston away. He opens up things for Houston, every time I turn around the guy is making a 3.

    Look at game 4 where Utah blew a 9pt lead w/ like 2 minutes left, Houston got it down to 2 and only because Utah had an offensive rebound after D-Williams missed both FT's they were able to edge them out with seconds left. Utah's HCA is solid however and if you are going to play, I'd much rather have the ML.
