Last season, the Rockets swept the Nuggets and took the initial game this season. The Rockets hold the all-time record having bested the Nuggets in 95 of their 180 matches.
Denver Nuggets
The Nuggets have been one of the hottest teams in the Association in recent weeks and registered major victories over upper echelon squads. Jamal Murray and Gary Harris have been on fire.
The trade deadline move to send Emmanuel Mudiay out cements the fact the Nuggets see potential to move up the playoff ladder. Adding a veteran point guard in Devin Harris allows Mike Malone flexibility in this regard.

Free Denver Nuggets vs. Houston Rockets NBA Prediction: Line is off
Presumably the line remains off as odds makers awaited trade deadline moves. For as much as the Nuggets are on fire their biggest weakness remains winning games on the road where they are 7-18. To wit, one of their two losses in the past eight came on the road in San Antonio.
Conversely the Rockets are stellar at home with a 20-6 record.
