Memphis got off to a great start at 21-4 on the season, but have since lost three straight times. They will refind their focus at home tonight as they take on the Houston Rockets, a team they lost to in Houston by nine points earlier this month. The Rockets are 20-7 and have dropped two of their last three, but won a big game at home vs. Portland their last time out, and may be a bit ripe for the taking here. And they are just 3-7 ATS following a spread win. The Grizzlies have been very strong at home for a long time as they meet the challenge of going against top teams here. Memphis is now 44-20-1 ATS in their last 65 at home vs. a team with a winning road record. The Rockets have not played well here recently as they are just 1-7 ATS in their last eight trips here. Make the play on Memphis in this one.
