The Houston Rockets (2-point faves) will look to move to 4-0 for the first time in 12 years tonight when they host the Boston Celtics, who are coming off a rare lopsided loss in their road opener.

Boston wasn't at its best Saturday, shooting 35 percent in a 95-79 loss at Indiana. The Celtics only lost three games by 10 points or more during the 2007-08 regular season.

In Saturday's 89-77 win over Oklahoma City, the Rockets shot just 36 percent from the field but made up for it with a 27-of-31 performance at the line and a strong defensive effort.

Kevin Garnett averaged 24 points and 10 rebounds in a season sweep of Houston last season, totaling five blocked shots and shooting 56 percent in those games. Get NBA odds with Bodog now.
