The Houston Rockets have lost 15 games in a row straight-up and they had failed to cover the spread in seven straight prior to covering +19 in a 15-point loss at Utah last time out. On their current losing streak, 12 of the 15 losses were by 11 or more points.

Here they'll face a Boston team that has been playing well lately and had won four straight before taking a 121-109 loss at Brooklyn last time out. Sure, this looks like a lot of points, but note that double-digit home dogs are only 2-8-1 ATS on the season across the whole NBA.

Rockets are 0-7 ATS in their last 7 games as a home underdog. Celtics are 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games following a straight up loss of more than 10 points.
