Season: 4-4
Sunday: New Orleans -2 (Taken at -2)
Haven't bought yet, I think this may move to -1, and I am going against the line movement here. But we have two teams going in different directions, New Orleans with some nice talent and improved in the off-season, playing good defense and denying the perimeter game. Houston is largely unimproved although probably a little stronger than last year just because their not all banged up...yet. Back to back game for Houston off a huge blowout of Dallas last night and Houston is 13-21 in b2b games. It's early but Chris Paul will only get better and the acquisition of Stojakovic from Indiana relieves some pressure on him. This is a team that can score enough to win against any team in the league and defend well enough to control the game, so in a good spot I think they will be a good team to look at this year for our purposes.
Best of luck to everyone!:thumbs:
