The Houston Rockets (52-14) rebounded after a loss well last night, beating the Dallas Mavericks by 23 points. They will try to do the same tonight against another in-state opponent, the San Antonio Spurs (37-29).
The Spurs are really struggling right now. They have lost 8 of their last 10 and are in danger of slipping out of the playoff race. They lost their last game to Oklahoma City on Saturday.
This will be the third meeting between the two Texas teams and the Rockets have won both of the previous games by double-digits. Could tonight be a similar story for Houston?
