I can only guess that with the stat you gave, plus that the Rockets are 2-0 in SA this year that he's saying the Spurs struggle with those teams. They have beaten Golden State twice, including one where none of the big three played in Oakland.
The Rockets game last night was terrific and helped them exorcise some demons from last week's 2nd half debacle vs. OKC. I have felt all along that the Rockets are a bad matchup for Portland, as their lack of defensive intensity sets up a team loaded with outside shooters with tons of open shots. Aldridge is tremendous, but he has now been just a bit below his best twice when matched up with Dwight Howard. I'd love to see Houston-Portland at some point in the playoffs.
