Racking Them Up

Written by: Donald Tolbert | SFL Sports Blogger

With Wednesday's loss against the Grizzlies, that makes it 12 out of the last 14 for the Houston Rockets. It's clear this team is attempting to sync up for the long run.

 As well as the Rockets have played since the all star break you wouldn't think they were actually working as many as 4 players into the rotation. Kenneth Faried has been in and out the lineup with rest after his return from his hip injury. Eric Gordon has missed time including the game against Memphis to rest with a minor knee injury.

Shumpert has missed time with injury since he was acquired and now Danuel House is back trying to find his way back into the rotation. Yet they have continued to thrive with the MVP helm of this locomotive. That's right if there was any doubt there shouldn't be. Even with a lost to Memphis on the second night of a back to back he made the case.

Without his full cast of teammates again Harden lit up the Grizzlies for 57pts in spectacular fashion. This was also his 7th 50 plus point performance of the season.

As the curtain closes on another NBA regular season, the Rockets are rounding into form for the showtime of the NBA playoffs. #10togo #Rednation #Hardecide
