Basketball Betting – Boston Celtics at Houston Rockets

Basketball information shows that this is the 2nd game of a three game road trip for Boston and the first of back-to-back games as they wrap up the trip with a game at Oklahoma City on Wednesday.  It is the final game of a brief two-game homestand for the Rockets according to basketball betting information.  The Rockets head out on the road for a five game road trip beginning at Portland on Thursday according to the basketball betting schedule.

This is an interesting basketball matchup between two of the top teams in the NBA.  The Celtics look as good as they did a year ago when they won the NBA title with their big three of Kevin Garnett Paul Pierce and Ray Allen while the Rockets look improved thanks to the addition of Ron Artest.

Gamblers making basketball bets should be aware that the Celtics have won six of the last ten meetings between the two teams.  Boston is 5-5 against the basketball number in those games. Last year the teams met twice and Boston won both times but was only 1-1 against the basketball betting pointspread.  At Houston, the Celtics won 94-74 last season according to basketball betting numbers. The Celtics have won four of the last five meetings between the two teams at Houston for gamblers making basketball bets.  Boston is also 4-1 against the basketball betting line in those games.
