NBA Western Conference *GAME OF THE MONTH*
(NBA) Houston vs. Utah,
Money Line: -125.00 Houston (Away)
Result: Loss
Play: Houston Rockets
Rating: 10*

The Utah Jazz are coming off a 112-103 win at Minnesota last night. They'll host the Houston Rockets here the very next day, and altough we won with the Jazz last night I would advice to switch side and take their opponent in this contest.

It's never easy to play on back-to-back nights, and that is particularly true when taking on an up-tempo offense like the Rockets. They rank fourth in the NBA for offensive efficiency and they're coming off a 130-114 win at Portland. Houston has won five of its last six games, scoring 111 points or more all but once and this looks like a good spot to take advantage of tired Utah legs.

The Rockets are 6-0 ATS in their last six road games and 7-3 ATS in the last 10 meetings, including a 111-102 win at home on Nov. 19. I'm going with a BIG WAGER on the Rockets Tuesday night.

As a bonus play I'm also advising the over with a 5* rating.
