Oddsmakers at LooseLines.com posted some very interesting Sports Odds pertaining to this early season clash between the betting favorites [-2½] Houston Rockets, and the underdog NBA champs, [+2½] Boston Celtics.  The last time the Celtics visited the Rockets, the C’s snapped Houston’s franchise-record winning streak of 22 straight games, with a dominating (94-74) defensive performance. "It's not disappointing," Tracy McGrady (18 ppg, 4.7 rpg, 5.7 apg) said that night. "It's a hell of a team over there. They outplayed us. I've never seen a defense like that. I mean, if they play defense like that, night in and night out, the NBA is in trouble because that was defense at its finest." Furthermore, this time around, the champs will have to go up against a much different and improved team, as C Yao Ming (22.3 ppg, 11.3 rpg, 1.33 bpg) is healthy, and newly acquired PF Ron Artest (18.3 ppg, 46% 3-pt, 2 spg) is on a tear. The Houston Rockets will look to move to 4-0 for the first time in 12 years, as they face a Celtics team who is coming off a rare (79-95) lopsided loss to the Indiana Pacers, in their 2008-09 road opener.
