This was without a doubt the best Rockets game played all year, although I definitely had my doubts heading into the second half if we could keep playing hard, we DEFINITELY did. Our big men actually played very well, consistently fighting for rebounds which is something I have not seen all season. I am very impressed!
So now people finally coming around to needing both AB and KL7 if we want to perform at a high level as a team? (of course it doesn't hurt when everyone is shooting insanely well and the frontcourt decides to actually play some semblance of defense)
What a great game. Aaron Brooks was so clutch. I hate Boston more than any team in the league, so this feels especially good. That's 3 in a row in their house too.
its about time, despite great shooting the rockets caught a lot of lucky breaks with boston's clumsy turnovers and easy missed layups.
It might have something to do with not having Martin and Miller, Lee/Jeffries/Hill/Patterson played more minutes and we actually played some defense. Not great defense, but atleast we didnt suck.
