HOUSTON at CHICAGO --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Houston has won against Chicago in six of the last 7 meetings, and the" last three" that were played in Chicago. So why is Chicago -6? 1/26/03 is the last time Chicago beat Houston in Chicago. Houston flies fom Minnesota to Chicago on no days rest for their second of two road games...then its back to Houston.That isn't really that much of a gruelling negative, since they are going back to Houston when the buzzer sounds. Chicago is playing the second of two games at home on one day of rest. Both teams are playing their third game in 4 days. Chicago should win this game on paper, but they were supposed to win a few of the last 7 meetings also. My take is Houston.
Michael Redd is out for Milwaukee, and Denver has acquired a superstar player in Iverson. So why is Denver only -2'? Milwaukee is playing high scoring basketball, but allows their opponents high scores also. This should be a shoot-out in the old west, with Denver outlasting the Bucks with points to spare.
