I could see the rockets getting a 2 seed. I'm not too impressed with the Spurs. They seem like an "average" good team this year.

Although I expect the spurs to pull away now that they are playing well, if Spurs and rockets are still neck and neck for 2nd seed at the end of the season, I would be surprised if the spurs exert extra energy to try to keep the #2 seed. Losing home court in the 2nd round to the rockets isn't much of a loss.

specially after the rockets should have beat them while only shooting under 40% from the field and about 16% from 3.

Spurs didn't play a good game either. Very sloppy and lots of turnovers. I think the rockets shot like 20 more shots than spurs. Rockets lost because you can never count out Choke City.
