Rockets lose third straight to Miami to start the season

Well, that was no fun.

The Rockets, who at one point led by 21 points, dropped a third straight blowout loss to the Miami Heat on Sunday, losing 109-89. Marcus Thornton led the Rockets with 21 points. James Harden added 16 on just 2-15 shooting from the field.

This one was bad, but it wasn't bad from start to finish. The Rockets came out firing in the first half, scoring 35 points in the first quarter. Thornton was brilliant. Capela was big. The ball was like, moving because of people's passing and spacing?
