Houston Rockets
Memphis 24-28 on FTs. Rockets fouling too much. Defending well for a majority of the shot clock, but bailing out the Grizzlies with some undisciplined fouls.
RT @RooshWilliams: I held out on complaining but the referees for the Rockets-Grizzlies game are officially and inexcusably outta hand.
Noah with a two-hand shove to Rivers to gain separation. Nothing.
Rivers gets all basketball on Noah, seconds later. Two free throws.
Chris Paul turning it on in the second half so far. We need him to keep it going for this comeback to happen.

Grizzlies 81 l Rockets 70 with 5:53 remaining in the 3rd.

Second-half starts now on @ATTSportsNetSW.
25 points and counting for @JHarden13 ⤵️
The Rockets only have three turnovers so far, if they can just hit shots.
.@JHarden13 scored 15 PTS and added 2 AST in Q2 to end the half with 35.6 #NBAFantasy points.
#Rockets
Mike Conley's 21 PTS on 7/8 shooting has the @memgrizz up against Houston at the half.

#Rockets 53
Jonas Valanciunas: 19 PTS, 6-6 FGM
James Harden: 25 PTS, 4 AST

#Rockets have run a lot of 21 series. With Valanciunas staying back in coverage, Capela is creating space inside the lane. Harden is using his off hand to create space for his floaters. In this example, Harden baits and times the defender to draw the foul.
#Rockets had the 26th ranked defensive rating in third quarters before they played Minnesota on Sunday. In the two games since, Houston ranks third in net-rating and 16th in defensive rating. Houston also ranks 12th in defensive rating in the 4Q. Memphis leads 63-53 at halftime.
Thanks to 25 points from James Harden, the #Rockets now only trail by 10 against the Grizzlies at the half. Houston still allowed Memphis to shoot nearly 53% for the half.
James Harden hopes to play in the World Cup, plus more from the Southwest Division. https://t.co/O8a5wYIR4j
