The Rockets are good enough to win without Dwight. But they are great with the big man in the lineup.
The Houston Rockets beat the Dallas Mavericks comfortably last night, and they did it with James Harden making just four field goals and Dwight Howard playing just 17 minutes.
Newsflash: this is a really good team.
It seems silly to remind people of this, but it seems that it needs to be done. Yes, they may not have a killer team on paper, but they play well together, force turnovers, hustle their butts off and do excellent work in transition.
