The Rockets look to end their losing streak before the extra point goes through
This is a quick preview because it’s such a quick and awkward turnaround between games.
The Houston Rockets are on a six-game losing streak. Nothing is going right, and every team they run into seems to be playing their best game of the season. The defense has fallen off a cliff, and the offense sorely misses its point guard in Fred VanVleet.
The good news is that the Rockets are on a back-to-back and the Toronto Raptors aren’t. Oh wait, that’s bad news.
The Raptors are missing their two best scorers in RJ Barrett and newly-acquired Brandon Ingram. But at this point, I could tell you that the Raptors could only field their G-League team and you would predict the Rockets to find a way to lose this one.
We’ll be in the Playback room tonight, so you should come join to watch the Rockets and talk about the game. Remember, we get a handful of VIP passes that we give out to anyone who wants to watch the game. No League Pass necessary!
