The only thing good that will come out of this season for the Houston Rockets is that they will be getting the No. 1 overall draft pick, or certainly a high lottery pick. The Rockets have lost six-straight games, but have been a bit more competitive with three of those losses by six or fewer points. They have shot the ball much better, having connected on 46% or better in 10 of their last 14 games. The Thunder played to an 11-5 mark over a 16-game period but have come back down since at 5-6 in their last 11 games. A 20-7 ATS run has become 5-6 ATS in their last 11 games. The Thunder is just 2-5 SU against Houston in the past seven meetings, and this is a lot of points to be laying by a team with a losing record. I like Houston in this one.
