The San Antonio Spurs ( 29 - 6 ) continued their undefeated streak at home Saturday by beating the Houston Rockets ( 16 - 19 ) , 121 - 103 . The Rockets pulled off the unlikely task of beating the Spurs in their last meeting on Christmas , but this one followed a much more common script . San Antonio ran away with a dominating victory and really took it to the Rockets . It was a 31 - 7 run in the third quarter that really put some distance between these teams and Houston could never recover after that . San Antonio killed Houston with their own recipe , by hitting 13 - of - 24 three - pointers en route to the blowout . Houston 's defense has really let them down all year and that was the case yet again here . They allowed the Spurs to shoot over 52 percent from the field and allowed far too many open threes . Most of the starters struggled aside from James Harden and Dwight Howard . The 17 points that Harden scored is extremely low for him , and he really did n't make any sort of impact in the second half . Howard did record a double - double though , as he collected 22 points and 12 rebounds in the defeat . Houston was expected to lose this game , but the fashion they did it in was ugly yet again and one has to wonder if big changes are coming . The Rockets will look to bounce back on Monday against the Utah Jazz . San Antonio has been dominating with their defense this season , but the offense carried them tonight . They rank first in every significant defensive statistic , but also rank third in offensive efficiency . They surely added to that efficiency rating here , as they shot over 50 percent from the field and three - point range while dishing out an impressive 31 assists . Boris Diaw was the star of the show off the bench , as he tallied 20 points and eight boards in just 25 minutes of action . Danny Green also hit a season - high six three 's en route to an 18 - point outing with a solid all - around line . San Antonio has now won 20 - straight home games and they are truly one of the best teams in basketball right now . They 'll play the Milwaukee Bucks on Monday in their next scheduled game .
