    Huge minutes here for Rivers. Every time I think the guy disappears or wonder if the Rockets need him, he has a stretch like this that reminds me of his value.

    That one possession, knicks #5 played Rivers too close at perimeter, Austin juked and blew by him for a layup.

    Bad quarter. Still ended up with a tied quarter.

    Haven't lost a quarter this game. :)

    To be fair, most of us have seen hundreds of Rockets third quarters where they let the other team back into it, so there's lingering trauma there. Luckily, this is the best year of third quarters I've seen the team play in the Harden era. Nice job tonight, bench.

    There is no reason for him to not be playing. House provides nothing. MDA is loyal to scrubs and has no clue on how to handle proper rotations. Never has never will.

    Covington is playing well overall but please get that 3PT% up -- only 33 since joining. He probably will.

    Rivers and EG should attack more when both stars not on the floor

    What has house done to get this amount of trust from dantony?

    He's the only young guy dantony has ever had more trust in than veterans.
