Oklahoma City in on a nice run, having won four straight while covering in four of its last five. The Rockets continue to be a puzzle, losing three of their last five while going just 1-4 against the spread in their last five. However, Houston has to figure it out soon. They are just 1 game from being out of the playoff picture in the West. A win over OKC can go a long way. The Thunder have been hot, but also are prone to letdowns. They are just 5-11 ATS in their last 16 after a win. Houston is 19-7 ATS in their last 26 after 2 days of rest, so they should be re-charged and ready to make a run at OKC tonight.
