Quick note before we get started: I am moving to the Seattle area starting today. That means I will be on the road a lot over the next four days or so. I will try to update the preview if anything comes up, but please bear with me during this time. Thank you.
The Houston Rockets continue their long homestand tonight with a visit from the Portland Trail Blazers. The Rockets began this patch of games by getting blown out by the San Antonio Spurs. Tonight, they get a banged up Blazers team that still has enough talent to run them out of the Toyota Center.
