Rockets smoked by Nuggets 120-100
The Houston Rockets have been making some progress as a team of late, but they laid a big, fat egg on Wednesday night in their rematch against the Denver Nuggets, falling 120-100 in a game that was pretty much over at halftime.
The Rockets were punched in the mouth in the first half, falling behind 74-47 at the break, as the team looked as bad as they have at any point this season, and though things were a little better after the break, the damage was already done.
Houston allowed Denver to shoot 53 percent from the field and a scorching 17-for-32 from three while only hitting on 42 percent of their own shots from the floor overall and were 12-for-41 from deep.
