The Houston Rockets’ eight-game win streak was snapped by the hands of the Nuggets in 105-95 defeat in Denver on Wednesday night.
After arguably the best game the Rockets played all season in the 132-108 win against the Trailblazers on Monday, Houston was held to a season-low 95 points in Denver — the first time the team didn’t reach 100 points this season.
Houston was able to keep the game close/interesting most of the night, but they never had any control of the match. After Denver went on a 7-0 run to start the game, Houston went on a flawless 13-0 run to get a 15-9 lead, only to allow the Nuggets to go on a 13-0 run of their own, and the rest was history.
