Predictions
Over/Under: Under (233.5) 1.93
Last season Atlanta averaged 116.2 points at home, and the Rockets averaged 107.5 on the road. Both teams have improved defensively in the off season, whilst not particularly setting the world alight with their offense recruitment. Feels like a grind of a game to us.
