Tonight, the Rockets look to bounce back against a Suns squad that they’ve owned in both previous meetings this season.
Phoenix is certainly a team Houston should beat, but the Suns have big wins over a few playoff teams, including Minnesota (twice), Oklahoma City, and Denver. The point is that Phoenix, behind Devin Booker’s mercurial ability, has the ability to score enough to hang with anyone.
Houston has to learn that they cannot play for 30 minutes and expect to win. Against New Orleans, the Rockets playing hard in the first quarter and then in the last 18 minutes of the contest.
