San Antonio at Houston

This is not the San Antonio team we saw for decades as the Spurs are an ugly 17-30 on the season. Things, however, are even worse in Houston as the Rockets stripped everything down and are in a classic rebuilding process. Their home court has been more of a disadvantage than an advantage as the Rockets are 0-8 in their last eight home games. You don't see too much of that in the NBA, but that is the saga of the Rockets right now. San Antonio has fared well vs. Houston in recent meetings as the Spurs have claimed five of the last seven in this series. They certainly have eyes on a win for this one as they are finally the better team in a matchup. Make the play on San Antonio.
