Phoenix Suns vs Houston Rockets Preview

This match-up is a tale of two contrasting seasons as the Houston Rockets have one eye on the Western Conference title whilst the Phoenix Suns’ whole season is them trying to avoid finishing in last place. The gulf in quality on the court could not be much further apart with the exception of the Suns’ talented shooting guard Devin Brooker, arguably the only player who could get anywhere near the Rockets team. The Rockets will do their NBA odds the world of good with this match.

Phoenix Suns vs Houston Rockets Prediction

The only way this game is heading is for a comfortable Houston win. Whereas that may be one of the most predictable NBA betting tips you are likely to read, finding value in the Suns is all but a wasted effort. Just the one win in their last five does not breed confidence in the home side and the latest NBA odds point directly to the Rockets and that cannot be ignored. The Rockets also claimed victory the last time they visited the Suns in the summer league and they look like making it an easy second win in the desert.

Phoenix Suns vs Houston Rockets Betting Tips

In our best NBA betting previews, it is not hard to see why the Rockets are such favourites for this game. Table positions aside, the contrasting form of either side also presents another gulf in performance. Despite coming into the game after suffering a loss to Raptors last time out, Houston had won four on the bounce prior with a healthy 23 points win their last result on the road. We have already highlighted the Suns’ plight of four defeats in the last five including losing to the Lakers last time out but you can still get reasonable value with SunBets for the outright win which is why we go with them for a Rockets win. It is set to be a lift off for Houston as their attempt to try and reel in the Warriors at the top of the Western Conference looks set to go into overdrive.

One thing that is notable about these two sides is their high scoring capabilities. However, Betfair have given us an under points total that we can really get our teeth into as the chances of 234 points in the game are remote despite what the odds suggest. The reason being that the last ten meetings between the two have wielded an average of 222 points and whereas that may be high compared to most others, it still falls well short of Betfair’s generosity. To add further weight to our argument, the Suns have failed to reach triple figures in two of their last five and although the Rockets have been piling on the points of late, the Suns will be incapable of maintaining a high scoring ratio and the Rockets will take their foot off the gas as soon as they feel they have a strong enough margin.
