The Houston Rockets opened a five-game road trip with three straight triumphs before coming out flat in a 98-80 loss at Oklahoma City Thursday night.

I think they might've been guilty of looking past the Thunder with all focus on this Lone Star State rivalry matchup with San Antonio, and I like the Rockets to close out the trek with a win.

The Spurs are coming off back-to-back defeats (0-2 ATS) and coach Gregg Popovich called out his team as soft after a 95-88 loss to the Miami Heat on Wednesday. Spurs could come out firing after a comment like that, or they could take it the completely wrong way ...

We can also note that Rockets are 5-2 ATS in the last seven meetings at AT&T Center.

10* play on Houston Rockets.
