<h2>
Reasons To Avoid Houston<br />
</h2>
<p>
Outside of the prospect for an overlay by virtue of Houston's rising stock and Charlotte's crashing market assessment, the Rockets remain a team that posts a losing record on the road this season. Houston sits at 14-16 SU outside of Clutch City on the year, and they are tasked with facing a Hornets team that remains 20-11 SU on their own floor in the Queen City. This narrative alone makes Houston a dicey proposition given the fact takers are asked to lay the points here.
</p>
<h2>
Reasons To Back Charlotte<br />
</h2>
<p>
The Hornets own an edge in the turnover department and bode a bench that scores 42.4 points per game. Bench play gives Charlotte a considerable advantage as they score 15.8 more points per match compared their opponents whose bench scores just 26.6 points per game. By this angle alone the Hornets are not only in a position to cover but stage an upset.

Rockets at Hornets Prediction 02/27/2019

Situational betting is a strategy we look to utilize, and this scenario sets up as an ideal position for the Hornets to submarine the Rockets. We saw Houston come into Minneapolis before the All-Star break priced around the same number we see here, and the Timberwolves would go on to win the game by double digits. All this after Minnesota's stock was low and the Rockets were riding a hot hand. History will repeat itself in Charlotte with a Hornets team looking to reclaim their home court supremacy they are known for. Charlotte will get the job done, we'll play this one outright.
