Hack-a-Rocket and the Emerging Playoff Picture

For the Houston Rockets, it was a weekend full of highs and lows — and not necessarily in that order.

MK Bower of CultureMap joins me from the scene at the Toyota Center after James Harden, Dwight Howard and Corey Brewer powered the Rockets to a 121-114 win over the New Orleans Pelicans Sunday night. We discuss what we saw in the win, the massive opportunity lost against the Spurs, the latest opponent strategy to intentionally foul the Rockets early and often, the impact of Donatas Motiejunas’ injury and potential playoff matchups for the Rockets as the NBA season draws to a close this week.
