Oklahoma City at Houston

Houston has lost three straight, but this is the game that will get the Rockets out of their doldrums as it's a huge revenge situation after they were routed at Oklahoma City on Jan. 9. The Thunder has lost three of five since that game and is playing its third game in four days. Houston has covered the spread six of its last eight games versus teams with winning records and four of five playing with one day of rest. Russell Westbrook had 35 points while James Harden added 34 against the Lakers in a losing cause as Los Angeles shot 48 percent from the field. Look for Houston to clamp down defensively in this one. Lay the points with the Rockets.
