Latest Odds : Rockets -8 Total 223.5
Mavericks come in 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games against teams with an above .600 win percentage. And until recently the Mavericks have been dominant at home going 21-11 SU. But Dallas has gone downhill and fast losers of 9 of their last 10 games.
Dallas got a lucky cover for bettors as the Mavs got in done in Orlando on Friday night. But this is a ton of points for Dallas to get versus a in state rival like the Rockets who they are also seeking revenge against as the Mavs lost 120-104 just one month prior so I expect revenge to be in the air.

Luka Donic has been my rookie of the year this 19 year old is averaging 21.1 points per game pulling down 7.3 rebounds and even getting 5.6 assists per game. The Mavericks main job will be containing James Harden who has really righted the Rockets ship this season scoring 36.6 points per game and even rebounding at a 6.5 game clip and dishing the ball for 7.5 assists per game.
Rockets look for the 8th straight win on Sunday as coach Mark D'Antoni has this team playing at peak level best. Rockets unlike early in the season are finally healthy. Earlier this year James Harden missed some time and so did all star Chris Paul.

Free Betting Pick: Mavericks +8
8 points is a ton for a home rival to get and I think you will see Dallas fight hard in this contest. Dallas needs to score more as they have been held to 106 points or less in 6 of the last 10 games and if they want to beat the Rockets scoring will be key. I see this game going down to the final buzzer with the Rockets hanging on 125-121.
