The PLAY: San Antonio Spurs +2.5 (-118)
This is a FREE PLAY on the Spurs.
We have an interesting Southwest Division matchup between the 5-3 Houston Rockets and the 5-2 San Antonio Spurs.
The Rockets are 3-1 straight up and 4-0 against the spread on the road, while San Antonio is both 3-0 straight up and against the spread at home.
Something's "got to give" here on Friday night, and in my opinion, the home-floor advantage simply can't be overlooked as a very real deciding factor in this one in the end.
After two losses to open the season, Houston has now won five straight, including a 124-109 victory at Memphis last time out. They've played against a few struggling teams over that span, though, and now they run into their division rival that's now hungry to snap a two-game slide.
The Spurs are coming off a 118-116 loss at the Lakers, as they lost at the buzzer from a last-second Luka Doncic shot.
San Antonio plays tomorrow at home against the Pelicans, but there's no way it's looking past the Rockets.
Plenty of talent on both sides, but Wemby presents a difficult task for the Rockets to slow down. Also note that the Spurs are in fact a perfect 5-0 against the spread their last five at home.
These are two evenly matched teams, and I think it's safe to say that they're going to be battling each other throughout the season for top spot in the division.
They're evenly matched in many ways, but the home-floor advantage is the difference-maker in this matchup in my opinion, especially with Houston potentially also getting caught "looking ahead" to its tough road game in Milwaukee on Sunday afternoon.
While I feel the outright win is the most likely outcome, in the end, I'll recommend grabbing as many points as you can with the SPURS on Friday night.
Good luck, NP
