Last time the Houston Rockets played the Brooklyn Nets they lost on their home court of the Toyota Center so hopes were to avenge that loss tonight in Brooklyn at the Barclays Center. Regardless of how the game turns out the Rockets will leave New York with more causalities then they arrived with following a terrible fall by Trevor Ariza in the first quarter.
At 8:19 of the first quarter small forward Trevor Ariza drove to the basket to make a lay-up but his feet were taken out from under him and he was unable to brace for the fall.
