This is a 10* RED DRAGON on the UNDER between the Minnesota Timberwolves and the Houston Rockets.

We don't subscribe to any single handicapping methodology, but instead feel that being flexible with ones approach is the best way to secure profits over the longterm. Sometimes we keep it simple, while other times we'll take into account numerous different factors, like motivation, scheduling and significant injuries. Recognizing classic "spot bets" is something we always do as well, IE: the "look ahead" spot, the "let down" spot and the "trap" game. One set of criteria which we always use when making our decisions are Against The Spread (ATS) statistics.

This particular play is based primarily on strong/relevant O/U ATS statistics and common sense:

As note that Minnesota has seen the total go UNDER the number in four of its last five when playing with three or more days of rest and in eight of 12 this year against Southwest division opponents, while Houston has seen the total go UNDER the number in interestingly six of its last ten against poor defensive teams which allow 106 plus points per contest.

The bottom line: Both teams had many players in the All Star game this weekend while both of their earlier match ups this year have gone OVER the number, we now feel that the conditions and the trends do definitely point to a bit more of a slower-paced defensive battle this evening. This number is just a little high, play the UNDER.
